Remove watermark image filter

         Designers and researchers often encounter images that have been previously watermarked. The presence of a watermark doesn't render the images or photos irreparably damaged. Watermarks can be effectively removed using the Watermark removal image filter.

         Utilizing the Remove watermark filter requires the exact definition of the watermark's location on the image. You can describe multiple free-form areas, from simple rectangles to more intricate shapes. Furthermore, there's the flexibility to choose specific algorithms for reconstructing the removed area based on adjacent image fragments. Additionally, you have the option to configure the maximum number of attempts for filling the watermark area, thus enabling the selection of the most optimal result.
