Instant image swap

Select an image, give a new one — swapped in under a second, no AI generation involved.

The fastest capability in Genesis: replacing a selected image with a specific new one is a direct, surgical operation — no AI build, done in well under a second.

How to trigger it

1. Click an image in the preview to select it.
2. Give the replacement: attach an image or paste an image URL in chat.

That's the whole trigger — selection + image. No phrasing needed.

What happens

The image source is swapped in your code, saved, and the preview updates immediately. Chat confirms which file was updated.

When something else handles it instead

• No selection + a pasted image URL → the image URL capability places it as a new element.
• Selection + a described image ("a cozy cabin in snow") → the general edit path generates the image first.
• Selected element isn't an image → Genesis treats it as a regular edit (e.g. setting a background).

If it fails

If the element changed between your click and the swap, you'll be asked to click it again. Other ways to swap images: the Source field and Open Assets in the style panel.
