Remove background with new release
I like the ability to detect the background using the new release, but how do I use that feature to remove the background or change its color?

The Background mask is simply the Subject mask Inverted.
If Add Background gives you a reasonable mask, then you can use any of the masking adjustments to change the background's appearance. For instance, pushing the Exposure down will darken it and going all the way to -4 could make it almost black. Use the Color adjustments to change colour, Temperature/Tint, Hue, Saturation and/or the Color.
Sometimes the Object mask gives a better mask and Inverting that will target everything except the Object.
Experiment. In many cases, LrC's masking makes it easy to alter the Background when there is a clearly separated Subject or Object.
