The visual editor
A design tool for the image that goes with a post. It has no page of its own: it opens over whatever you were looking at, and saves back there.
Opens as a dialogAnyone who can see the run or calendar post it was opened from.
Where it opens from
Three places, and where it saves to depends on which one you came from.
| Opened from | What saving does |
|---|---|
| A design in chat | Edit in Visual Editor on a design preview card. |
| A run's result | Edit Design on any result with a design. A single post opens one image; a carousel opens one slide at a time, with arrows and a thumbnail strip, and Save All writes every changed slide back at once. |
| A calendar post | Editing the design of a post already scheduled. This is the only entry point where the export dialog offers Save to Post. |
A result that cannot be turned into an editable design says so instead of opening an empty editor.
How it is arranged
Three regions: Layers on the left, the canvas in the middle, and Properties and Assets on the right. Both sidebars collapse when you want the canvas bigger.
| Region | What it holds |
|---|---|
| Layers | Every object on the canvas, topmost first. Rename by double-clicking. Each row can be hidden, locked or deleted, and a locked layer cannot be selected or moved. |
| Canvas | The design at its true pixel size, scaled to fit. The zoom control goes from 10 to 500 percent, with Fit to Screen. |
| Properties | With nothing selected, the canvas background: solid or gradient, plus a background image. With something selected, its position, size, rotation, fill, stroke and opacity, and for text also font, size, weight and alignment. |
| Assets | The brand's image library, searchable and filterable by type. Clicking one adds it to the canvas. |
Working in it
Select with the pointer, or pick the text, shape, draw or pan tool. Undo and redo cover everything, including background and layer changes.
Shortcuts: V select, T text, R shape, P draw, H pan. Ctrl or Cmd with S saves, E exports, D duplicates, Z undoes. All of them stop working while you are typing in a text field, so they never interfere with the text itself.
The more-actions menu holds bring to front, send to back, duplicate and delete for the current selection. The layers panel has the finer forward and backward steps.
Save stays disabled until something changes, so the button doubles as the unsaved indicator. Closing a carousel with unsaved slides asks before discarding.
Resizing and exporting
Resize Canvas offers platform presets, grouped by network, or a custom size between 100 and 4096 pixels with an optional aspect ratio lock.
Export offers PNG, JPEG or WebP, a quality slider for the lossy two, a scale up to four times, and for PNG a transparent background.
Save to Post appears in the export dialog only when the editor was opened from a calendar post. From chat or a run, download is the only export, since those surfaces have their own save actions.
Editing, saving and exporting never cost credits. Credits are charged when an image is generated, not when it is adjusted.
Worth knowing
Deleting an asset removes it for the whole brand, not just this design. A confirmation is shown first.
The editor is built for a large screen. There is no separate mobile layout.
There is no live collaboration. Two people editing the same design at once will overwrite each other.
