"The new tools are available in Figma Design and Figma Draw, and can be used to quickly remove objects from an image, isolate objects so they can be repositioned, and extend images beyond their previous dimensions. The Erase object and Isolate object tools are designed to work alongside Figma's existing lasso tool, which allows users to draw around specific sections of the image they want to edit."
"It sounds similar to Adobe's Generative Expand tool for Photoshop, using generative AI to fill the extended space in a way that blends into the original image. Adobe also has similar AI tools for erasing and isolating objects - Figma doesn't size up to the vast suite of creative tools available across Adobe's apps, but introducing its own native features gives Figma users fewer reasons to use other platforms for those editing requirements."
Figma released three AI-powered image editing tools—Erase object, Isolate object, and Expand image—inside Figma Design and Figma Draw to reduce platform switching. Erase removes selected objects and fills the background while Isolate separates selections from the background for direct repositioning or editing using the lasso tool. Expand extends image backgrounds to new aspect ratios by generating blended content without distortion. A consolidated image editing toolbar houses these features alongside Remove background. The tools require Full Seat access and are planned to roll out across other Figma apps next year.
