Wire Distractions in the Remove Tool (beta)
The new Wire Distractions Removal in the Remove Tool, automatically detects, selects, and removse unwanted wires and cables from your image - seamlessly filling in the gaps as if the wires were never there.
How to use it
- Launch Photoshop Public Beta from Sept 1st 2024 or newer.
- Open a file with unwanted wires or cables
- Choose the Remove Tool
- Optional: To work non-destructively, add & select a new layer above the layer with wires and choose "Sample all layers" in the Remove Tool Options bar.
- Click on the "Find distractions" button - then choose [Wires & cables] in the One-click removal category.
- Photoshop will immediately detect & remove the wires.
- Switch between CPU and GPU usage via the Preferences > Image Processing > Remove Tool (Faster = GPU, More Stable = CPU).
Expected Behaviors Notes:
- unlike removing People Distractions - there is not an option to preview or change the selection.
- does not remove utility poles.
- does not eliminate the shadow of the wire.
Performance:
For macOS systems, this feature performs best on macOS 14.6 or later.
