Understand the canvas
The canvas holds images, videos and other nodes in a project. Selecting an asset reveals actions supported by that asset type. SVGs and regular images have different capabilities; a missing tool is not always a loading problem.
Import, arrange and inspect
Use the project upload controls or supported drag and drop to import assets. Select and move them into place. Use zoom controls to fit the canvas or inspect actual size. Canvas zoom changes the view, not the resolution of the underlying image. The layers panel helps you locate overlapping assets; generated files provide access to existing results.
Quick edits and dedicated tools
Quick Edit accepts a description of your change. For local repainting, background removal, expansion or upscaling, choose the dedicated tool and review its options and estimated cost. More Tools includes tools that are not pinned by default. Toolbar customization controls visibility, order and label display.
Download and retain results
Project content and a downloaded local file are different copies. Select an asset and use Download, then verify file format, dimensions and transparency. Removing a canvas item does not necessarily release all stored asset space.
Avoid common mistakes
Inspect an image at actual size before judging blur. Use Upscale when you need more pixels. Changing the canvas background does not change the image background. Wait for processing placeholders to become completed results before exporting.
