How to generate images in Photoshop.
- Select Generate Image in the Contextual Task Bar that appears on a blank canvas. You can also navigate to Generate Image from the Edit menu or the Tools panel.
The Generate Image feature window opens to display a text prompt box, an inspiration gallery you can use as is or edit further and other creative controls to help you to generate an image from scratch. - Choose the Content type (Art or Photo) and select Style Effects to apply to your image. Refine your generation process and explore various styles to achieve your desired look.
- You can upload your own image by clicking Reference Image directly within the Generate Image feature or Browse from a gallery. This helps you control and refine the generated results, ensuring that they align with your preferred style.
- Enter a descriptive prompt and select Generate. A new image is created on a generative layer and three variations appear in the Properties panel, which you can also view on canvas from the Contextual Task Bar.
- Refine further by uploading a Reference Image or changing the Content type in the Contextual Task Bar or the Properties panel to adjust the style and effects after generating.

Generate Image empowers you to ideate and create the exact assets you want using additional settings for Reference Image. You can also explore the Firefly Community Gallery with user-generated images and prompts for inspiration or editing.
In contrast, Generative Fill adds or removes content from a selected area of an existing image, ensuring the new content matches the lighting, shadows and perspective for seamless blending without needing detailed text descriptions.
