Will Leg Length stretch my shoes or upper body?

The vertical stretch ends at each verified ankle, then the existing shoe pixels are translated downward as a unit inside the local envelope. The upper body and pixels outside both leg envelopes remain exact; a few antialiased edge pixels may be resampled as the shoe moves.

Why does Leg Length need floor space and separated legs?

Moving both shoes downward needs verified source background to redistribute beside and below them. If the legs touch, a shoe is cropped, or another object occupies that space, the tool cannot isolate two safe envelopes and stops rather than bending the wrong pixels.

Leg Length — Lengthen Verified Legs Without Regenerating the Portrait

Lengthen only two verified, separated leg bands with existing source pixels while keeping the face, upper body, and every pixel outside both bounded envelopes unchanged.

About the Leg Length effect

Leg Length makes a restrained change to two clearly separated legs you can clearly see, and leaves the rest of the photo exactly as you shot it. It locates each person by their face, shoulders and hips, then separates two clearly separated legs from the background, hair, skin and clothing before anything moves. The adjustment eases off to nothing at every edge of that area, and nearby background is filled in behind the new outline so no gaps appear. The face and every pixel outside the adjusted area are copied straight into a lossless PNG. In a group photo you pick who to change, or switch on "Apply to everyone" in Settings. Anyone standing too close for their neighbour to stay untouched is left alone rather than guessed at. If the photo is unclear, cut off, transparent or ambiguous, it stops instead of guessing.

How it works

Processing

Leg Length uses an AI action. Any separate allowance is shown before this effect starts processing.

Best for

sharp, opaque, front-facing photos with a clear face, both shoulders, hips, knees, ankles and shoes visible head to toe, straight legs held apart, and clean background beside and below both feet — including group photos where each person has clear space around them.

Less suited to: people packed shoulder to shoulder with no gap between them, side or seated poses, seated or crossed legs, feet cut off at the frame edge, long skirts or coats that hide the legs, cluttered floors, transparent cutouts, motion blur, and bodies touching the image edge.

Ways to use Leg Length

Apply a restrained leg-length adjustment without regenerating facial identity, clothing texture, shoes, or the whole portrait.
Keep the face, torso, hips, arms, upper thighs, and distant background source-exact while extending two isolated leg envelopes.
Use intensity to choose a subtle or more defined leg-length preview within a fixed safety limit.
