P: 24.1 - Where has Delete and Fill context menu gone?

I just updated photo shop today two version 24.1 and I have noticed delete and fill has been removed. This is really disheartening because it works so much better than content aware fill. Normally you can right click on the selection to access this, but I have looked through all the menus and have not found it since this update.

UPDATE: Being the impulsive, impatient person I am, I decided to call Adobe myself. What the agent told me was that the feature had been removed because of some issues they were having with it (he didn't detail the issue). However, he did say that they were working on the next update and that the delete and fill option should be back with the new update.

I asked when they might happen and he wasn't able to give me a specific date, but sounds like within next month or two.

Thanks for taking a look at this thread and alerting the team.  It feels somehow wrong to delibrately not update photoshop to the latest - so I look forward to it being fixed!  Thank you.

Hallo

In der Photoshop 24.0 ist ein neues Objektauswahl Werkzeug «Auswahl löschen und ausfüllen» vorhanden.

 

Ich habe momentan Photoshop 24.1 Installiert, nur bei mir ist «Auswahl löschen und ausfüllen»

nicht vorhanden, sondern nur Inhaltbasierte Füllung vorhanden, wieso das?

Thanks for posting, but this isn't about the bug that removed delete and fill from the latest version, right?  It's just explaining to anyone confused what the differences are between the 2 functions?  I wasn't sure - or if there's any news on it being fixed.  Anyways, thanks for the helpful post for those who get the 2 confused.

This response is for those who asked how "Delete and Fill Selection" works. 

 

I created a video (while I was still using version 24.01) that shows how "Delete and Fill Selection" works.  There is also a comparison with "Content Aware Fill."  You can view the video on YouTube here: Using "Delete & Fill Selection" to Help Blur a Background - YouTube

Please see the video below from PhotoshopCAFE to see the difference between "Delete and Fill" and "Content Aware Fill":

There is a difference, and I hope "Delete and Fill" comes back.

Certo! Però l'abbonamento, come me, lo paghi tutti i mesi e non puoi avere una versione aggiornata, che funziona correttamente? Non mi sembra giusto, nè corretto.
