Removing a tripod from a 360° photo
You can remove a tripod, hand, or other device used to hold your 360° camera, from your 360° photos. A content-aware fill feature, Magic Fill, is used to sample the background and make the selected area disappear.
Magic Fill is a content-aware feature that can make unwanted elements of your photos vanish.
The Freehand Selection tool was used to loosely enclose the area with the tripod. Magic Fill uses content-aware technology to remove the tripod from the photo.
