What does the Caption effect change?

Caption organizes the photo and graphic content into a clear editorial hierarchy, preserving a useful focal area for readable typography and messaging. The strength control determines how much of that treatment replaces the unedited appearance.

Which photos work best with Caption?

Choose Caption for album art and magazine-style layouts, framed portraits prepared for sharing, or social-media carousels and covers when the source has clear detail and balanced exposure. Start with a lighter setting if it contains sources with essential content at every edge, unreadably small text, or mixed images whose aspect ratios cannot support the selected layout.

About the Caption effect

Caption arranges layers, crops, masks, spacing, and edge treatments through an export-safe composition contract. Its intensity control blends the processed output with the uploaded pixels, so the edit can remain restrained or become the dominant look.

How to use Caption

Upload a photo, adjust the Caption intensity, compare its processed preview with the source, and download the finished result.
