Expanded View

Expanded view is the full-screen preview for inspecting a generation up close, stepping through neighbouring assets, and comparing the final result against the reference images used to create it.

Part of: Asset Library (Create)

How to open expanded view

You can open it from several places in the gallery:

Double-click an asset

Double-click any completed image or video card in the grid. This is the fastest way in.

Expand button on a grid card

Hover an asset thumbnail and click the small expand icon (top-right of the card).

Side preview panel

Click an asset to focus it in the preview panel, then click the preview image/video or the expand button in the corner of the preview.

Press Escape or click Close (X) to exit. Use ← and → in the top bar to move to the previous or next asset in the gallery.

Top bar controls

The header shows the asset prompt title and media type (e.g. Image, Video).

Control	What it does
← / →	Previous / next asset in the current gallery list
Magnifier	Zoom into image detail (images only, Full view) — hover to pick zoom level (e.g. 2x, 4x)
Heart	Add to or remove from Favourites
Download	Save the file locally
Info	View generation details (failed or incomplete jobs)
Close (X)	Exit expanded view

Expanded view — full image with magnifier, favourites, and download in the top bar

In Full view, move the magnifier loupe over the image to inspect texture and fine detail in the zoom window.

Reference strip (images & video)

For image and video generations that used reference inputs, a reference strip appears along the bottom of expanded view.

Thumbnails typically include:

Final generation/asset — the completed output
Additional image 1, Additional image 2, etc. — reference images attached during generation (start frame, style ref, character ref, and so on)

Click any thumbnail to select it. The pink highlight shows which item is active.

While references are loading you may see Loading refs... briefly.

View modes (left toolbar)

On wider screens, a vertical toolbar on the left switches how you see the selected media:

Mode	Icon	Label	Best for
Full view	Expand	Full view	Single image or video at full size; magnifier works on the final asset
Side by side	Two panels	Side by side	Compare reference vs final in two panels
Slide over	Layers	Slide over	Wipe between reference and final with a draggable slider

Side by side and Slide over activate when you select a reference thumbnail (not the final) and both the reference and final are images or videos.

Full view

Shows one selected thumbnail at a time — either the final generation or a single reference. Use the magnifier on the final image to check detail.

Side by side

Two panels: Final generation/asset on one side and the selected reference (e.g. Additional image 1) on the other. Labels appear in the bottom corner of each panel.

Side by side comparison — final generation next to a reference image

Slide over

The final image fills the frame. The selected reference is revealed through a pink vertical slider — drag the handle left or right to compare before and after (or reference vs output).

Slide over comparison — drag the pink slider to wipe between reference and final

Typical workflows

Check a restyle or edit

Open expanded view → select Additional image 1 (your source) → switch to Side by side or Slide over to see how much changed.

Verify image-to-video source

For a video asset, select the start-frame reference in the strip and use Side by side to confirm motion matches the input still.

Inspect quality

Stay in Full view on Final generation/asset → enable the magnifier → check edges, faces, and texture before approving.

Save or favourite

Use Heart or Download from the top bar without leaving expanded view.

Expanded view is desktop-first. On smaller screens the left view-mode toolbar may be hidden — use the reference strip and top bar controls.
