P: Generative Remove Feedback (Lr Classic & Lr Eco)

@Rico Myburg:   "Even better if they each had their own shortcut button."

These are the current shortcuts:

- Q opens the Remove panel, with the last-used mode (Remove, Heal, Clone) selected.

- Option Shift G toggles the setting Use Generative AI.

@MicheleDeeVee!!: "When I used generative fill to remove a person and his shadow, there was still a faint outline on the photo so it seemed to just have lighted it up AND it added a little person."

There could be several causes of these symptoms:

1. After clicking Remove, check that the Opacity slider is 100 -- LR infrequently changes it to something else.

2. If you applied Remove on top of an AI mask (e.g. Sky or Subject mask), do the menu command Settings > Update AI Settings to recompute the mask.

3. See this short article for how to remove objects more reliably:

Most complaints about Remove are addressed in the article. But if it doesn't help, please attach a full-resolution JPEG exported from the unmodified original photo (not a screenshot). With nearly every one of the several dozen problem photos posted here, we've been able to show how to quickly remove the desired objects.

1. Uncheck Detect Objects (on by default in LR 14) -- it doesn't always work well, especially with skinny objects and along the edges of photos.

2. After clicking Remove, check that the Opacity slider is 100 -- LR infrequently changes it to something else.

Tool overlay and icon gets on the way when visualizing the different variations of the remove tool. Needs a toggle to hide it so you can better see the final results.

It's already doable.
See screenshot



Use "H" to hide or show the overaly...same KBSC also des it for masking.

@John299771167m8b: "I get a hard line around the selection I removed."

Remove often has problems matching the tone of the replacement with the background. See my previous reply for three techniques for ameliorating the problem:

https://community.adobe.com/t5/lightroom-classic-discussions/p-generative-remove-feedback-lr-classic-amp-lr-eco/m-p/15055346#M391147

Using the second technique, raggedy boundaries for the selection, works well with your screenshot:

@juliaanastazja: "the generative fill keeps leaving a visible edge where it removed and object."

Remove often has problems matching the tone of uniform backgrounds.  Besides using the healing brush (in shorter brush strokes), some other techniques to ameliorate this problem:

- Make the boundary of the selected area very raggedy with tendrils coming out of the edges. This can work well when the background isn't too uniform (as it is with your example).

- Select a much larger area. In your example select all of the grey background right up against the person.

I have removed unwanted item. It is done successfuly.
