Using the brush tool to clean up a white background

Report · Nov 22, 2021

Hi All, I just upgraded lightroom classic and now I don't understand the brush tool. I have images shot on a white background that I need to clean up. It used to be easy but seems more complex now. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

What do you mean by "clean up"?

What about the brush tool now is your question? As far as I can tell, the use hasn't changed at all, only the location of the icon/tool has changed.
