Add to a scene with Generative Fill.

What you’ll need

Generate new elements in an image with AI.

Enhance your scenes using simple text prompts and Generative Fill in Adobe Photoshop.

Start with AI.

To add to the image that Lee generated using Text to Image powered by Adobe Firefly, choose the Marquee tool and drag to highlight the area where you’d like to generate new content. Then click Generative Fill, type a prompt, and click Generate.

Pro tip: If you want a specific shape, draw a selection with the Lasso tool instead. The closer your drawing is to the form of your subject, the better the outcome will be. For example, rather than drawing a circle and typing “cowboy hat,” draw the shape of a cowboy hat, and then type the prompt.

Choose your favorite.

Cycle through the results in the Variations section of the Properties panel and select the one you like best. Generative Fill will match the lighting, shadows, and perspective of your original content. If you decide later that you prefer a different option, select the generative layer to see the variations again.

Pro tip: To see more variations, modify the text prompt and click Generate again.

Export and share.

Choose File > Export > Export As. Then choose JPG, change the size to 1080 pixels, and click Export.
