In addition, it allows for local editing that can modify the shape, size, color, or texture of specific regions or objects in the image, and even perform <strong>Photoshop-style modifications, such as cropping, resizing, rotating, adding filters, changing backgrounds, and merging images<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2024\/02\/Imagen-1-8224-0911.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-272845\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>A request as simple as asking to add some lightning to a landscape photo gives truly amazing results.
