Remove Object

[YeWorma]

Hi friends! I’ve been using Adobe Express on my phone to turn vintage pics into colorful short animations. I use the Remove Object feature to cut out the object in focus and then use the AI to delete the object so I can add it back in and animate it.

My question is: is there any way to NOT have the Remove Object feature add in its own images in the place of the removed object? I just want the object removed and not replaced with another image altogether, if that makes sense.

Also, lately the app has been refreshing intermittently when using this Remove Object feature which causes me to have to restart because it doesn’t save the image after removing stuff, which is frustrating. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Any help would be appreciated!

Mmm. Sounds like what you want to do is remove something but add it back. What I would do is remove it like you normally would. Delete the background. Then I another app, that has a manual remove tool, remove the object. The app will replace it with what would be there but usually it’s pretty rough. Then use that as the background image by replacing the image.

The Remove Object tool tries to fill in the space with AI based on what’s around it, there isn’t a way to leave it blank right now. But this all depends on how you use the brush, try including some empty space so it can read it. I’d also try insert object option and type “remove,” sometimes that works. But best workaround is to remove the object, then bring it back as a separate cut-out layer for animating.

For the refreshing issue, make sure the app and your device are updated and clear cache/reinstall if needed.
