Which feature would you use to move a subject while automatically filling the background?

• A. Free Transform
• B. Move Tool
• C. Content-Aware Fill
• D. Content-Aware Move

Answer: (D)

Content-Aware Move is built for relocating a subject while automatically blending the background where the subject was removed. You can drag the subject to a new spot, and Photoshop uses its content-aware algorithm to fill in the vacated area and to synthesize the background behind the moved subject. This combines moving and background filling in one operation, which is why it’s the best choice for this task. Free Transform simply changes position or size without automatic background repair; the standard Move Tool moves pixels but doesn’t fill the gap; Content-Aware Fill fills a selected area but doesn’t move the subject.
