Editing Tools: Replace, Recreate, Erase, and Vary

If the Edit section is missing in the right-hand panel, the model used to generate the image does not support editing.

You can edit generated images directly in the viewer using the following tools.

Replace

Replace regenerates a selected area based on a new prompt. Use this when you want to change part of the image by describing what should appear in its place.

How to use:

• Open the image in viewer mode

• Click Replace in the right-hand Edit panel

• If the Edit section is missing, the model used does not support editing

• Select the area you want to change

• Enter a prompt describing what you want to appear

• Click Replace

Recreate

Recreate regenerates a selected area using the original image prompt. Use this to get alternative versions of a specific part of the image without changing the overall prompt.

How to use:

• Open the image in viewer mode  

• Click Recreate in the right-hand Edit panel  

• Select the area you want to regenerate  

• Click Recreate

Erase

Erase removes key objects in the selected area while preserving the background. Use this when you want to remove something without manually describing what should replace it.

How to use:

• Open the image in viewer mode  

• Click Erase in the right-hand Edit panel  

• Select the object or area you want to remove  

• Click Erase

Vary

Vary generates full-image variations based on the original. Adjust the Likeness slider to control how similar the result is — higher values = more similar.

How to use:

• Open the image in viewer mode  

• Click Vary in the right-hand Edit panel  

• Set the Likeness strength (default is 50%)  

• Click Create

Tool availability and cost

Editing tools are available on all plans. Each edit action costs 1 credit.

Editing tools are only supported for images generated with:

• Private style models  

• Artist styles

• Images generated with other models (e.g., GPT Image, Flux.1 Kontext) do not support editing.

Other ways to edit

You can also edit images using the Instruct feature. Instruct lets you apply text-based edits and works even on images generated with other models. See the Instruct article for details.
