Removing photo background

Hi guys -- running Photographic Designer 12.51
I have used the remove background feature MANY TIMES. "Eraser tool, mask painter tool, Hit erase again and then hit remove background"

For some reason after going thru above procedure I no longer get the "erase background button"

Was wondering what is happening since this just started?

Thanks, Ron

Strange because the 'Erase background' button is not removable. What you could try to do is go to Utilities/Control bars and click on the 'Reset' button. This will reset the user interface, so be aware that any customized control bars will be reset to the default settings.

Thanks for your response. Playing around with your idea, I realized that the control bar was not centered. The erase background button was hidden to the right. Dumb stuff happens. everything OK now. Thanks again I appreciate it. Ron

Glad you got it sorted.

Thanks Gary. I have followed you for years. You have gotten me thru many a difficult situation. I remember your monthly challenges that really got us thru the basics. Thanks for being there for us. At 85 I am still learning.
