Firefly Fill and Expand is awful, how can I default to Firefly 3 until Fill and Expand gets replaced?

Hi! Thanks for responding. I was actually looking to see if there was a way to stop that dropdown menu from reverting to Fill and Expand every single time I open a new image.

I work on hundreds of images a week, so its just a new extra step I have to remember to do every time I use the tool now. And I often forget to until it it finishes generating and gives me unusable results and realize that’s why.

I’ve debated just reverting my Photoshop version to a version prior to Fill and Expand releasing until it gets replaced or removed. Because Fill and Expand only generates something usable around 10% of the time in my experience.

The Edit > Generative Fill setting is sticky for me, even after exiting and restarting Photoshop. Are you using the Contextual Taskbar?

This code will default to Firefly Image 3 (requires an active selection):

var c2t = function (s) {
	return app.charIDToTypeID(s);
};

var s2t = function (s) {
	return app.stringIDToTypeID(s);
};

var descriptor = new ActionDescriptor();
var descriptor2 = new ActionDescriptor();
var descriptor3 = new ActionDescriptor();
var descriptor4 = new ActionDescriptor();
var reference = new ActionReference();

reference.putEnumerated( s2t( "document" ), s2t( "ordinal" ), s2t( "targetEnum" ));
descriptor.putReference( c2t( "null" ), reference );
descriptor.putInteger( s2t( "documentID" ), 59 );
descriptor.putInteger( s2t( "layerID" ), 5 );
descriptor.putString( s2t( "prompt" ), "" );
descriptor.putString( s2t( "serviceID" ), "clio" );
descriptor.putEnumerated( s2t( "workflowType" ), s2t( "genWorkflow" ), s2t( "in_painting" ));
descriptor3.putString( s2t( "gi_PROMPT" ), "" );
descriptor3.putString( s2t( "gi_MODE" ), "ginp" );
descriptor3.putInteger( s2t( "gi_SEED" ), -1 );
descriptor3.putInteger( s2t( "gi_NUM_STEPS" ), -1 );
descriptor3.putInteger( s2t( "gi_GUIDANCE" ), 6 );
descriptor3.putInteger( s2t( "gi_SIMILARITY" ), 0 );
descriptor3.putBoolean( s2t( "gi_CROP" ), false );
descriptor3.putBoolean( s2t( "gi_DILATE" ), false );
descriptor3.putInteger( s2t( "gi_CONTENT_PRESERVE" ), 0 );
descriptor3.putBoolean( s2t( "gi_ENABLE_PROMPT_FILTER" ), true );
descriptor3.putBoolean( s2t( "dualCrop" ), true );
descriptor2.putObject( s2t( "clio" ), s2t( "clio" ), descriptor3 );
descriptor.putObject( s2t( "serviceOptionsList" ), c2t( "null" ), descriptor2 );
descriptor.putString( s2t( "serviceVersion" ), "clio3" );
descriptor4.putString( s2t( "in_painting" ), "clio3" );
descriptor4.putString( s2t( "out_painting" ), "me_md" );
descriptor4.putString( s2t( "generativeUpscale" ), "clio_f16_async" );
descriptor4.putString( s2t( "text_to_image" ), "clio3" );
descriptor4.putString( s2t( "gen_harmonize" ), "clio3" );
descriptor4.putString( s2t( "generate_background" ), "clio3" );
descriptor4.putString( s2t( "generate_similar" ), "clio3" );
descriptor4.putString( s2t( "instruct_edit" ), "clio3" );
descriptor.putObject( s2t( "workflow_to_active_service_identifier_map" ), c2t( "null" ), descriptor4 );
executeAction( s2t( "syntheticFill" ), descriptor, DialogModes.ALL );
