Content Aware Stopped Working

Recently my content aware feature stopped working. It worked for about 6 months and then stopped functioning correctly. I tried deleting and reloading the software, and this also did not work. I select an area to fill and choose content aware and it will only fill it partially.

Ok..here is a before and after. In this example I am trying to eliminate the watermark I have applied to the photo with Paint program. I completed this 100 times before this problem started a few days ago. You see that content aware only glazes over the selection.

  • BI content datasource stopped working - fields gone missing...

    Hi everybody!
    My customer is running a BI content version datasource 2LIS_02_ITM.
    In BI, the transfer structure for this datasource has suddenly stopped working. It's claiming that three fields are not delivered by the datasource in the source system.
    example:
    "Field MCEX_UEBTO will not be delivered from DataSource 2LIS_02_ITM in source system SPPCLNT300"
    So I look in SBIW in R/3. I go to BI Content Datasources and further in to 2LIS_02_ITM. There I can't see the fields that the transfer structure in BI are needing. But when I continue to the extract structure for the datasource, MC02M_0ITM, I can see the fields that I'm searching for. Somehow they can't be chosen in the datasource.
    So this has previously worked for years. When I check the delta queue, I can actually see records which has my desired fields included. So somehow the extraction are still working - my setup in BI are still the same, but it seems that the three fields are no longer included in the delivered version of the datasource in R/3
    Any ideas on how to fix this?

    Solution:
    I went in to table ROOSFIELD. There I found the same thing that I saw in RSA2. The three fields had the attribute 'A'
    So after a little time googling how to change fields in ROOSFIELD - I found this piece of code:
    REPORT ZTEST_ROOSFIELD.
    TABLES: ROOSFIELD.
    UPDATE ROOSFIELD CLIENT SPECIFIED SET SELECTION = u2018Pu2019
    WHERE OLTPSOURCE = u2018<Data Source name>u2019
    AND OBJVERS = u2018Au2019
    AND FIELD = u2018<Field to be made visible>u2019.
    WRITE SY-SUBRC.
    Worked like a charm!
    The fields are once again visible in the datasource - and thus BI is happy again!
    Thanks everybody for contributing to the solution to this problem. Points have been awarded!

  • Content-Aware Fill working poorly in CC 2014

    Content-Aware Fill does a very poor job in CC 2014. Color is off, density is off, texture is off. Is anyone else having this problem?
    I had to switch back to the last version of CC in order to work on my current project.

    I have absolutely no idea why you are addressing your reply to me, Ziggy,
    Besides, it's a non sequitur. Having a "PC with Windows 7" is no indication of having a good machine, not even a poor machine.  It tells us nothing.

  • Content aware not working

    HI all I've got a copy of CS5 extended and for somereason content aware is no longer working.
    here is an example:
    To the left you can see the white area I am trying to fill, so I realise this is a big area and select only a portion, making sure I've got enough of the sky to make a good copy and then go shift backspace or edit>fill and get up the content aware dialogue.
    And up comes the dialogue box, I press ok and nothing happens? 
    Anyway know what this is about.  I can go in and clone it but this seems wierd. 
    Thanks
    Sj

    It's not a good sign, when something doesn't work then does after restarting the app.  It's possible the panorama stitching process left some corruption in memory or used up some resources that were needed for Content Aware Fill to work.
    These latest "gee whiz" features Adobe has added to Photoshop always seem a little less stable to me than the rest of the product.  In some cases I know they're packages they purchased, rather than engineered themselves, so the level of integration might be a little lower behind the scenes than with the "native" features engineered in-house.  In practical terms, this means you probably want to save your work often, in several different places, and maybe even restart Photoshop after doing "big" things.
    And to be fair, Photoshop relies heavily on OpenGL, and the OpenGL implementations done by the video card makers are not always perfectly stable - this can leave latent corruption in Photoshop's memory causing problems later.  If you've had unexplained trouble, it's always a good idea to check to see if your video card maker has published a newer display driver for your hardware on their web site.
    Do you have a lot of free space on your scratch drive?  I know that the panorama stitching process can use a LOT of scratch space.  I ask because running out of scratch space might cause unexpected failures.
    Also, how much memory do you have, and what are your settings in Edit - Preferences - Performance?

  • Slide Animations Stopped Working

    Hello,
    Last night we had a program in which we were screen sharing a Windows Media Player video. The setup I had was a Content Pod with a PowerPoint file in the front, and the Screen Share Pod behind it. In a new layout I had the reverse setup, the Content Pod behind the Screen Share Pod, so prior to the start of the program we were already Screen Sharing the video, so we just clicked the new layout when it was time and the video was ready to go instantly.
    Before we got to the video, we noticed the slide animations in the PowerPoint file in the Content Pod stopped working (they were working previously, tested multiple times). We had to stop the presentation and re-load the file in order to get the animations to work again.
    Have you ever had this problem occur? And do you see it correlating to having the Screen Share Pod active throughout the session?
    Thanks,
    Matt

    This is the app that came with the phone itself & can't be removed/reinstalled.

  • Content aware fill at edge of picture

    Hello all,
    I've just purchased and installed CS5.  I love the content aware fill feature.  I have an issue with it for which I'm looking for some suggestions...
    I have a photo with a rope that goes through that I want to eliminate.  The background is grass and sky.  The content aware healing works great everywhere except when I extend the area that I want to fix all the way to the edge of the photo.  Away from the edges I get what I expect.  But at the edge, I get black or white "residue" overlayed on the cleaned up area.  Same thing happened when I tried to eliminate a foot that shows up at the bottom edge of the frame.
    Suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Charlie

    Some other things to try:
    Select the image around the edges, making sure you expand the selection into the "good" pixels a little ways, then use the Edit - Fill function rather than using the Spot Healing brush.  This was the way that was shown in one of the CS5.com videos.
    Another thing that might help under certain conditions - if you actually have data beyond the edges of the canvas (which can happen if you've been combining data or have used crop with the "Hide" option rather than Delete:  Try dragging the crop tool around the entire image then selecting the Delete button, then cropping.  I'm not sure but I think Content Aware Fill might be sensitive to image data that extends beyond the edges of the canvas.

  • Content Aware with Magic Wand¿

    I used to fill in gaps of missing Panos with content aware in CS5 using the magic wand and fill - content aware. In CS6 it fills it in with the foreground color. The only way I can get the content aware to work is if I make the selection with the lasso tool. The quick Sslection tool will not even select the area without pixels. Anyone else had this issue¿

    Thank you for the reply. Yes I selected the content aware option in the drop down; I have been using the content aware to fill in gaps in panos for a long time now. The issue is in the CS6 Beta when I use the magic wand to select the empty pixels, and there are a lot in places, it will only fill it with a solid color. Also the quick select tool will not even select empty pixels. The pano I have isn't that large, 35090 px by 3490 px, not near the type of panos Ben Willmore does for example. I just wondered if anyone else has this issue and if so is there a fix.

  • Disappointed in PS CS5 content aware fill

    My first few attempts at using the content aware fill have been disappointing. I created a panorama and wanted to fill the foreground (misty water) and the sky (cloudy) to the top and bottom of the frame.  I selected the transparent pixel areas that needed to be filled with the water and sky, then I expanded the selection 6 pixels, so that PS had some pixels to reference for the filling operation. There wasn't much sky above the tree line, but the content aware fill worked fine in this area. However filling the foreground with the misty water did not. PS insists on referencing pixels well out of my selection and using these as part of the fill. Even after repeatedly undoing and redoing the content aware fill, PS insisted on using pixels well out of the selected pixels to create the new content aware fill. Why is this?
    It seems that the only user control over this tool is the selected pixels. Shouldn't this tell PS the pixels you want it to reference for creating the fill? Why does PS insist on going well outside of the selected pixels for a reference. If I wanted it to reference other areas of the photo I would simply include those areas in or very close to the selection. Isn't the tool suppose to use the selection as a guide? How can you tell the tool to use the selected pixels as a reference?

    Content Aware Fill simply does not work! 
    I would suggest that once you use a tool such as magnetic lasso or marquis square to define an area:
      To replace:
      1. Tones with colour (e.g. a scratch on a car, breadcrumbs on a tabletop)
      a. The eyedropper be used to sample a colour.
      b. Once the colour is defined, then the content aware is used.
      2. Pattern with a pattern (e.g. beach sand to replace dead fish and weeds on a beach)
      a. Use the rubber stamp to define the pattern that will replace the "corrupt" area
       b. Once the pattern is defined, then the content aware is used.
      The problem also has to do with Internet reporters or whatever they're called. They all follow each other and make the same comments.
       What happens is that all of these NetPorters end up almost verbatum with the same same material. Unfortunately, software netporting is not unique.
       The same holds true for stock netporting. Some "expert" in some office off Wallstreet (everyone is moving away from there) writes that Company B23W1X
       should make $1.78 a share with net profit for the quarter to be $ 148,000,000. Pretty soon there are 100,000,000 same same articles copied verbatum from
       the NET or some other "expert" copied form the first  netporter expert , but "adjusted" the data by 1 cent and for the profit 138,000,000. COmpany B23W1X only makes $ 1.77 a share mand only $ 147,999,999.00.      
      What happens - all the brokerage houses sell.
    Unfortunately, what happens with software is that everyone forks over a bundle of money for the "new features" only to find out they don't always work!
    Bottom line: wait a few months till the regular public and users start posting.
    The same stampede has occurred with Apple's new operating system Lion OS 10.7. Apple sold 1 million  of this OS in 1 day!
    I waited, and started to read the problems people were having. I'm still considering the new OS.

  • Content-aware-fill and magic-wand-tool

    Hello! I use the content-aware-fill to remove some text from a photo. To do so, I use the "Polygonal Lasso Tool", select the text with a generous border and click edit -> fill -> content-aware-fill.
    This works fine, but selecting a text with the lasso-tool is very much work. So I tried to use the magic-wand-tool - some clicks and the text is selected, very fast and fine. No applying the content-aware-fill - the text vanishes somehow, but the borders of the text are still visible. I guess you really have to select the text AND some background around it to make content-aware-fill work. But isn't there a way to do this with the magic-wand-tool? Increasing the tolerance didn't work, I would need something like "magic-wand-tool and increase the selected area +20 pixels in all directions".
    What procedure do you suggest?

    Are you trying to remove a watermark that says something like "Proof" or "Copyright"?  If so, you won't get much help here.  The best advice in that case is to actually pay for the photo.  It's surprising how many people ask for help doing illegal things.
    Please confirm you are not trying to defeat someone's copyright (e.g., post a small part of the image), and I'm sure you'll get more help.

  • CS5 trial issues with ram and content aware issues.

    I run a vista 32 machine with 4 gigs.  I have tried just about everything including running the machine in minmum and loading only windows and adobe CS5.  I still get the error of "Could not fill because there is not enough memory (RAM)".  I have tried playing with the performce settings and GL settings to give adobe as much memory as it needed but it is still not working.
    I am working with a file that is 6.49mb which is the average of what my raw file convert to when I download them from my camera.  Now the only way I can get it to work is seriously downgrade the file in size and then the content aware fill works great or decrease the area that is going to be filled.
    So am I missing something or do I have to convert everything over to 64 bit and throw 8 gigs in this machine to get this to work with those tyoe of file sizes?
    Thanks

    Hi again everyone. I tried the original solution of turning off OpenGl support in preferances and that worked for me. Granted there are still some problems.
    To recap:
        I have an Intel Core i7 processor with 4GB RAM and Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit (didn't want to go down the 64bit route for compatability issues with other programs). Because Adobe do not support the Canon EOS 5D Mk II in CS3's camera RAW I upgraded to CS4 (that's were things began to become unstable). CS4 was flakey at best. Nice new feel (when it worked). Now I am no dummy when it comes to computers (I run my own IT company as well as photographic business - they kinda compliment each other). After loading CS5 (mainly for content aware feature and hoping it was a bit better than CS4 turned out to be - like most of you on this forum) the neat feature that Adobe had been raving about didn't work as advertised.
    Back to where I am up to now. I will not turn this into a Mac vs PC debate since we have aldready had earlier, someone with a "brand new MacBook Pro" complaining of the same issue. I can state that, of all the systems I work on with Windows 7 (which is alot), the only one I am having major issues with is my own. And the only piece of software giving me grief (if you saw my two screens you would have trouble counting the apps on my system), is Photoshop CS5! After turning off OpenGL I can now stitch 12 or more RAW 5D MarkII photos with no problem, generating a file 938MB in size. The first time I did this I still had to original files open and it would not let me do any content aware modifications. Fair enough. I closed all the source files, flattened the layers to produce a single flat layer to work with and then tried content aware. "Not enough memory". I had to bring the file down in size to under 50MB to get it to work on any decent sized area. Now I don't want to have to go out and buy "Blow up" to renlarge my photos because Adobe can not get their memory management working! Lets be clear about this. This is not a Windows problem. Photoshop assigns its own memory, its own scratch disk and interfaces with the Graphics card. So if I assign 1.5GB of memory to Photoshop, 400GB as a scatch disk and have 1GB of video memory why does it still have issues with a 50MB file!!!! Piss poor programming!
    Here are my issues. I was sold on CS5 due to a brilliant (if not misleading video) that showed "content aware" at work on Adobe's web site. There was no mention that I would need a super computer or 64bit operating system to work its magic. On purchasing the product as so many of you have discovered it does not work as promissed. In two days of posting to this site I have not seen one representative of Adobe making any comment as to even if they are working on this issue.
    Please ADOBE, you big multinational software company, PLEASE make us feel better for having purchased CS5 and not let it be the big white lemon it seems to be.

  • Suddenly content aware fill is UNaware?

    SUDDENLY  this is how content aware fill works, or rather does not.
    Any ideas?  Thanks

    You've given it an image with a white border, and expect it to know that the white pixels aren't desired.  It can't really know that.
    You could put the image on a layer, use the Magic Wand tool to select the white, expand the selection just a little, then delete it.  Content Aware Fill knows that transparent pixels aren't candidates for being used to reconstruct parts of the image.
    Or you could use layer masking.  Similarly, Content Aware Fill won't use parts of the image that are masked off to fill other parts.
    Hope this helps.

  • Help!!! My Content Aware has stopped working.

    My content aware feature stopped working. It worked for about 6 months and then stopped functioning correctly. I tried deleting and reloading the software, and this also did not work. I select an area to fill and choose content aware and it will only fill it partially. I am unable to post a capture of what this looks like. Basically, when I try to utilize content fill..the result is a semi filled section. It looks as if it glazes over the selection..leaving it visible but partially filled. This happens regardless of the selection size, area of the photo etc.

  • Saved .htm pages with hover content stopped working

    Hi,
    I save some web pages for offline viewing. Some of them have content that shows up only '''when you hover''' over them. Examples would be *.wikia.com (navigations) and danbooru (ex. http://danbooru.donmai.us/posts/1675488?pool_id=8335). I save them by '''Web page, complete''' option. They used to work but I just found out that now they don't.
    I checked with IE and Chrome but found out that it stopped working there too. I tried using Firefox with add-ons disabled and reverted to older versions (30.0 & 24.0) but it's not working there anymore. I even restarted my PC. I thought maybe it was cache related by even newly saved pages don't work.
    I am sure they did work because I usually save my files as mhtml to avoid too much clutter but hover content doesn't work there. The last time I saw it working was on '''September 25, 2014'''.
    Thank you in advance.

    I have checked the offline wikia page you provided. All the images are there. All the js files are there. But some script works and some doesn't. Unfortunately it is impractical to debug the page to see where the failure occurred.
    If all your save pages are based on the same template, by which I mean only the pictures vary, but the pages are based on the same underlying mechanism, then it might be worthwhile to learn some simple scripting. It takes just a few lines of code to re-enable the functionality you want (btw, it is not hovering -- you have to actually click the thumbnail).
    However, if the pages differ a lot, then I am not aware of any practical way of achieving what you want except trying some of these plugins to see if they work better:
    [http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2061311/firefox-plug-in-that-downloads-a-complete-webpage Firefox plug-in that downloads a complete webpage?]
    Or google and see if you can find more.
    Wikipedia is probably the most archaic website I use. Obviously, if even wikipedia doesn't save properly, as mentioned in cor-el's link, I don't think you can expect to have much luck with wikia. This is just to give you a realistic assessment of the difficulty level of what you are trying to accomplish.
    I used to think that my computer was the safest place to keep everything -- when I was using a dial-up connection. So I also carried out similar endeavors to preserve everything useful on my computer, just as what you are doing right now. I know how much work it takes, and I could never get things 100% correct, because webpages are generally not designed to be saved locally.
    Now I am sure most of the things on the internet will outlast my computer. And I have a broadband so everything is just one click away in firefox. So I am never bothering again.
    Sorry I wish I could help you more, but this is the best I can do. Good luck!

    Good day!
    A simple Paste does not work for you?
    It should place the clipboard content as a new Layer which you can then move around.
    If there is any chance that the elements need to be scaled, rotated etc. I would prefer to place them as Smart Objects (File > Place …) and do the masking that is specific to the images themselves in those.
