If you seek to remove an object that adjoins the subject in the photo you can end up with bizarre artifacts being generated. The fill algorithm should exclude the subject when doing the fill or have the option to exclude the subject.
Steps to reproduce issue:
Load a picture of a person in highly colorful dress with an object adjoining their body
Highlight the object for removal and process it.
You should now have a highly imaginative fill showing

Does adjusting the Speed-Quality slider all the way to the left make any difference? With the Sleeve Tattoo test I ran the made up fill artifacts like this only happened at the Quality end of the setting.
Yes, it reduces the amount of distortion but the distortion still remains making the removal unusable. I still think that the subject/s should be excluded when the AI generates the content. This seems the easiest solution.
Or, even better and as suggested before, have two masks: one marking the object to be removed and another one marking areas with structures to be used for fill in.
Padding to my understanding controls how much of the removed objects direct surrounding is taken into account for the inpainting.
And it’s not „better“ when this is set to zero but heavily depends on the specific case. Mostly I would just leave this at normal.
But if you have adjacent structures grossly blown up into the erased area it can sometimes help setting this to none.
In other cases maximum can be better so it’s a bit of a trial and error here.
That is because of the fill. The solution is draw the mask and use non-fill(keep area) option to fine-tune. The result will be better if the padding is max when using non-fill.
@bin.sun@jo.vo I have tried every possible combination of settings and have found that every single combination results in a gross distortion drawn directly from the excluded subject (which is the selected subject if you quit the remove tool). It doesn’t matter what combination of speed, padding or guidance you use and I have tested this for over an hour inclusive of doing separate multi passes on the image with the tool. Still believe that there should be an exclude subject option.
