Outpaint extends an image beyond its original frame — AI imagines the scene past each edge. Turn a square crop into a wide banner, or give a tight shot breathing room.
Using it
Right-click an image node and choose Tools → Outpaint. On the connected Outpaint node:
- Drag the handles outward on any side of the image — top, bottom, left, right, or several at once. The Output readout shows the resulting canvas size live.
- Press Outpaint. The job runs in the background and the extended image lands in the node.
- Not right? Drag the handles again and re-run, or hit Reset to zero the expansion.
Iterating outward
Each run builds on the last: once a result exists, the drag handles expand from the result, and the expansion values reset to zero after every run. To grow an image dramatically, extend it in a few medium steps rather than one giant one.
The expanded canvas is capped at 2560 px on its longest side and roughly 4.2 megapixels in total — if you drag past the budget, the readout shows (max) and the expansion is scaled down to fit.
Extend one direction at a time when the scene matters. Growing left and right in separate runs gives the model a full-resolution view of each new region.
