Greatest addition to Photoshop EVER!! 🎉🎉🎉

[darrenleigh]

Excellent video! Always appreciate your explanation(s) and examples. Thanks for sharing!

[balamina]

Thank you so much Anthony for the informative and useful tutorial on Generative Expand! God bless and good luck!

[photonsonpixels]

Thanks Anthony. Are the added areas low resolution?

[johnsimpson-wbkq]

Hi Anthony great videos how do i open Beta from camera raw i can’t see how to do it you have explained how to access it from lightroom or have i missed it ?

[Beyondtheshot]

nicely explained, when i expand the crop, i do not get these blank pixels but just black. and it just creates something else or add more random stuff while i need the same image expanded.

Great video as always. I too have loved this feature and have been quite happy with the results. Very helpful when I missed a short and did not have as much headroom on a portrait as desired.

One small point. Technically, I would say that the algorithm is extrapolating as opposed to interpolating. With generative fill, then interpolation would be correct.

Thanks Anthony . Have you encountered any problems using “edit with “ Lightroom Classic to Photoshop beta version 25 ?

[liverpoolpictorial]

Does generative fill expand also have the 1024 pixel slection limit before the fill gets degraded?

[peterusher]

I think you mean extrapolate rather than interpolate when illustrating Generative expand. Another suggestion is rather than generate more images when an initial generation is a little off, use generative fill within a small selection to make the correction. The Remove tool might also do the trick.

Did something change with this feature today? it worked great for me before but now on the new update it shows the lines were composition use to be and doesnt blend at all looks . ive been messing with the new update all day and this option doesnt
not work good with new update.

[tiaoat]

I upgraded to Beta v25.0 but the “edit in” from Lightroom doesn’t work any longer. Apparently this is now a know bug. So I rolled back to 24.7. Can you comment on this issue. Adobe is aware of the problem so I assume there will be an update to fix the problem.

[Joe-vypu]

Thanks Anthony! Did you find a type of image that Generative Expand did not work well on? Landscape, wide angle shots or ....

[shmacro]

When do you think they will ever add this to the regular Photoshop program? I have all my plug-ins in the regular version of Photoshop and don’t want to mess with switching all that around.

[jeremytucker]

Does it keep the original resolution or is it still 1024?

I'm surprised you didn't mention this 😵‍💫☺️

[ayemjake]

Version 25 is broken at the moment. Generative fill won't load and it's frustrating.

[jndominica]

Amazing. Maybe we will see glitchy images like the cut softbox from now on. I wonder if the program will expand images with "forbidden" content. You can always take a spot from one generation and combine with another.

[Creatorops]

I wonder why no one zooms in after the image is generated 🤔

Many Thanks for these kind of videos. Great to learn in these fast turning KI/AI - times. Follow since a long time (from Germany).
I have updated the latest version and have an issue with PS beta.
Generative fill answers alsways with fault 408 in the latest version of beta (Version 25.0.0).
On the other had it is not possible to start PS Beta from LR Classic. Since in LR the 1st external software is named as Photoshop 2024. But LR can not start since in the application folder I have only PS Beta or PS 2023 (the regular software). This occurs on a Win10 system where I am not able to chance the application - only choice is Photoshop 2024 - do you have the same issue with your Mac system?
