Use Reframe
Resize an image to a new aspect ratio with Reframe, extend the canvas naturally, and understand limits, prompts, and token use.
Change an image's aspect ratio without cropping or losing any of the original content. Reframe extends the canvas around your image and fills in the new space to match its style, so you can adapt one image for a banner, a story, or a cover without rebuilding it.
Before you start
Reframe costs 20 tokens per use, on every plan.
Reframe an image
Select the image you want to reframe.
With the image selected, click Reframe under Tools in the right panel. You can also find it in the contextual toolbar above the image, under the "more" menu.
Choose a size: pick a preset (1:1, 16:9, 9:16, 4:3, 3:4, 2:1, or 1:2), or select Custom to set your own aspect ratio.
Click Reframe to generate the new areas.
A progress bar appears while the new areas are generated. This usually takes under a minute.
Expected outcome
The canvas extends to your chosen aspect ratio, and the new areas are filled in to match the color, style, and feel of the original image. Your original image stays untouched. If the result isn't what you expected, use the undo icon below the canvas to revert to the original size.
Size limits
Minimum dimension: 256 x 256 px. Images below this can't be reframed.
Maximum dimension: 1440 x 1440 px. Larger images are automatically scaled down before reframing.
If your image is smaller than the maximum, it isn't upscaled, it's used as is. Scaling down usually looks fine, but scaling up too much beforehand can make results look soft or blurry.
Troubleshooting
Why does my reframed image look off?
A few things can trip up Reframe:
Text near the edges: Reframe might extend text but can't always match the font or spacing, so letters can come out distorted.
Faces near the border: Reframe may invent missing parts of a face, and small errors here are easy to notice.
Transparent backgrounds: Reframe fills based on solid colors, so transparent images can end up with artifacts or repeating patterns, and you'll lose the transparency. Use Remove Background afterward if you need it back.
Extreme aspect ratio changes: small adjustments, like 1:1 to 4:3, usually blend well, but very wide or very tall ratios, like 2:1 or 1:2, ask the AI to invent a lot more, so results are less predictable.
If a result doesn't look right, try again, small variations can produce a better match.
Why can't I reframe my image?
If your image is smaller than 256 x 256 px, it's below the minimum size Reframe supports.
Common questions
Does Reframe use tokens?
Yes. Each Reframe action costs 20 tokens, on every plan. You can check your token balance in the editor before confirming.
Can I control what gets added to the new space?
Not directly. Reframe fills the new area automatically based on what it sees in the image. You can't brush over an area or write a prompt to guide the result, the way you can with Edit Area or Erase & Fill.
Does Reframe change my original image?
No. Your original image stays exactly as it is. Reframe only adds new content around it.
Can I pick a custom size?
Yes. Choose a preset like 1:1, 16:9, or 4:3, or select Custom to set your own aspect ratio.
Will the new parts always match perfectly?
Most of the time they blend nicely, but depending on your image, small differences in texture, lighting, or style can happen. If something looks strange, you can always retry.
