Frequently Asked Questions

QCan I use my own images as a background?

Yes. You can upload any image from your device to use as the canvas background. The image is loaded locally and never sent to a server.

QWhat canvas sizes are supported?

You can set any custom width and height in pixels. Common presets like 1200×630 (Open Graph) and 1080×1080 (Instagram square) are available for quick selection.

QCan I reorder or delete individual elements?

Yes. Each text or shape element can be selected, moved, resized, and deleted independently. Layering order can be adjusted using bring-forward and send-back controls.

QWhat export formats are available?

Currently PNG export is supported. PNG preserves transparency and is suitable for web use, presentations, and further editing in other tools.
