## Generate for the layout

Select an image target and describe what should replace it. Doodi creates a bitmap asset for that part of the design.

-   Image requests tied to the selected target
-   Generated imagery saved for the project

## Preview an idea first

Ask for a sample or mention Image Gen to explore a visual concept in chat before creating editable artwork.

-   Sample images with a full-size preview
-   Your current brand and brief as context

## Choose the next step

Keep a useful sample in the library, or choose Design similar when you want Doodi to rebuild it as an editable composition.

-   Add to library for project or global use
-   An explicit Design similar action

## Reuse useful assets

Bring generated images back into later designs through the library. Continue editing the surrounding text, layout and logo independently.

-   Generated images available for reuse
-   Separate image assets and editable composition

## How to use it in Doodi.

The steps to try it in your own workspace.

2.  ### Inspect the result
    
    Open the image preview and check its content against your brief.
    
3.  ### Save or build from it
    
    Add the sample to your library or choose Design similar to create editable artwork.
    

## Good to know.

Answers about image generation before you start.

### Is an ImageGen sample already an editable design?

No. The sample is a raster image. Design similar asks Doodi to rebuild the chosen direction with editable design elements.

### Will a sample request create a post automatically?

A sample request stays in chat. Choose Design similar to turn the sample into canvas artwork.

### Can I generate just one image inside a post?

Yes. Use the selected image’s generation action to scope the request to that image area.

### Is generation included in the license price?

AI access and its usage are separate from the Doodi design license.
