The release of Photoshop Generative Fill was an epic improvement in creative photo editing.

And statistics show that majority of people have rushed into using the feature.

However there was also one issue…

because people didn’t know how to correctly use AI for best results!

Adobe tried to fix it.

and now every time you hit the “Generate” button in Photoshop, you’ll see one of these tutorial messages pop up.

Let’s explore all these tips and explain them…

so we can all use Generative Fill even better!

02 Input Language

You can write a prompt in more than 100 different languages.

For more precise control, try drawing your selection in the shape that you want to generate.


04 File Size Matters

To remove content, try generating without a prompt and we’ll fill in the selection based on the surroundings.

Didn’t find what you were looking for? Generate again to get new variations.


07 Add Feather

Advanced: try adding feathering or opacity to help generated content blend into your scene. Start with quick mask mode.
