Content aware fill doesn't fill entire selection.

Hi TomWeyts,

Either of these options may not work, although I wanted to chip in to see if I could help in any way.

My first suggestions which I am fairly sure you will have already tried is to select a much larger selection, although if this doesn't work do the complete reverse and make smaller selections at a time then content-aware fill that way. This way will obviously take much longer, although the desired effect may look much better. 

If you decide to content-aware fill in much smaller areas, I would suggest duplicating your layer then creating a mask and painting out all of the areas you don't want to be seen in your content aware such as skin and hair tones.

I hope this helps in some way, any questions I'll hope to respond ASAP.

Cheers,Alex

Hi

I tried with your image and did not get as bad a result - although the hair crept into the fill so:

1. Start with a selection around the top - missing the person and copy that to a new layer (Ctrl+J)

2. On the new layer - select the triangles leaving some overlap

3. Shift +F5 and choose content aware

4. Ctrl+D to deselect (and in my example, then turn back on the original layer)
