Target and location
Distinguish the unwanted object from similar items. Refer to its position and relationship to nearby landmarks rather than saying remove the thing.
Remove a distraction without redesigning the whole picture. Identify the target, describe the surrounding surface, and protect the subject and composition you want to keep.
Object removal changes a local part of an image and fills the exposed area with a plausible continuation of the surroundings. It is different from removing the entire background or replacing the subject.
Use a precise XPT editing brief: name the target, its location, and the nearby details that must remain. Inspect the reconstructed area against the original context. A believable fill is a visual interpretation, not recovered evidence of what was hidden.
Distinguish the unwanted object from similar items. Refer to its position and relationship to nearby landmarks rather than saying remove the thing.
Describe the wall, pavement, water, or fabric that should continue behind it. Check that lines and repeating patterns follow the existing perspective.
Identify marks caused by the removed object. Leaving its shadow or reflection can make the edit look unfinished, but unrelated shadows should stay.
Identify the object and its location in the image-editing request. Keep a separate source and state which subjects and structures must remain unchanged.
Ask to remove the target and continue the nearby surface naturally. Specify whether its shadow or reflection also needs treatment.
Compare geometry, texture, lighting, and subject boundaries. Request a focused correction if the fill smears a pattern or changes nearby details.
Work on one distraction, review the fill, and then decide whether another edit is needed. Several removals in a single request can make it harder to see where the scene started drifting.
Inspect repeated tiles, railings, horizon lines, and edges near the subject. For documentary or factual uses, retain the original and disclose relevant edits rather than treating a reconstructed area as an unaltered record.
Identify a small foreground distraction while preserving the architecture and people you intend to keep. Inspect the reconstructed surface and straight lines.
Clean My Travel PhotoRemove an unwanted prop or stray cable without changing the item. Protect labels, dimensions, reflections, and the contact between the product and its surface.
Tidy My Product SceneRemove a temporary element from artwork you control. Describe the material or environment that should continue into the cleared space.
Refine My CompositeTarget a background distraction without altering the person’s face, hair, pose, or clothing. Compare the boundary around the subject after the edit.
Clean My Portrait Background“Remove [specific object] located [position and nearby landmark]. Continue the surrounding [surface] with matching perspective, texture, and light. Also address [the object’s shadow or reflection, if relevant]. Keep the main subject, architecture, crop, labels, and unrelated details unchanged. Do not replace the whole background or add a new object.”
Decide whether the next change is a replacement, a broader edit, or a new setting. Keep each task separate enough to review.
Choose a replacement when the target should become something else rather than disappear. Specify the new object’s size, angle, material, and contact with the scene.
Try freeBring a broader correction into a separate request once the local cleanup is accepted. Keep a clear list of preserved details so additional edits do not redesign the image.
Try freeChange the surrounding setting when local cleanup cannot achieve the composition you want. Preserve the main subject and describe a backdrop with compatible perspective and light.
Try freeName one target, protect the details that matter, and accept the fill only after checking it against the source.
