Background removal AI - mask can't be extended

When I use Background remove AI to detect a background and then want to change this selection, it does not work.

As soon as I switch to the selection of the masking tools (brush, linear gradient, radial gradient, etc.), the selection seems to be removed.

If I activate "Show" under the masking options, the entire image is masked.

If I then select the brush, for example, the entire image is removed and I can only show individual parts again via the brush.

Actually, because Background Remove AI has already made a good selection, but not a perfect one, I would like to extend or reduce it in some places. Unfortunately, this is not possible.

In a video - probably still with a RC version - someone shows exactly that, so it should actually work.

Hi Wilko Frenzel,

If you want to undo the applied Background Removal AI extension, you can simply click here, please see the screenshot: https://prnt.sc/NBXcrCVU5WxH

Once the Background Removal AI detected the main object and removed the background, you can adjust the settings in the Refinements Brush section: https://prnt.sc/nh21xwhnWvjs

In this section, you can use a brush to paint the necessary areas, that were not detected by the AI.

Let me kindly advise you on the tutorial of our affiliate Jim Nix where he shows how the Background Removal AI extension works (starting from 2:28): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ngj_DJeEyww

THX, that helped a lot. :-)
Is therer a way to show the complete image (maybe in the background) while in the Refinements Brush section?

Hi Wilko,

We're currently working on improvements to the UI of this extension so that the original image is visible before you start masking, which will make brushing easier.
