Delete background of Generative fill pictures

[EdwurdAdam]

Hi,

After I use Generative Fill to add a picture somehere, How can I jeep the picture of the Generative fill picture but just get rid of the background of the object? 

See picture of the 2 baeballs in the middle of the red circles. I want to get rid of the brown around the baseballs, not the balls

Try using the Object Selection tool. (If you can't find it, got to Edit > Search and enter Object Selection tool in the Discover panel that opens. It will highlight where the tool is in the toolbar.

Use it to select one of the baseballs. Then hold Shift to use the tool to select the other 2 the baseballs on the layer. 

While the selection is active, click the 3rd icon from the left at the bottom of the Layers panel to apply a layer mask that reveals only the selected baseballs.

If you used Generate Image, there is a Remove Background option. But it doesn’t always work very well, and I don’t think it’s available for Generative Fill.

If that doesn’t work, then use Myra’s suggestion to use common fast selection methods to manually mask out the backgrounds behind the baseballs.
