## Inline text editing

The fastest way to change any text on your site:

1. **Double-click** the text in the preview.
2. Type your new text (plain text, up to 300 characters).
3. **Enter** or click away to save. **Escape** cancels.

You'll see a confirmation toast when it's saved. If a particular text can't be edited in
place, Genesis automatically passes your change to the AI instead — it still gets done.

> **Tip**
>
> Inline editing is for short copy — headlines, buttons, labels, paragraphs. For formatting
> (bold, links, lists), use the rich-text editor below or just ask the AI.

## Rich-text content

Long-form content blocks — like blog post bodies and rich-text widgets — open a **full
rich-text editor** in an overlay when you double-click them. There you get real formatting:

- Bold, italic, links
- Headings, lists, blockquotes, code blocks

Close the editor (or click away) to save.

## Replacing images

Click an image to select it. You have several ways to change it:

### From the style panel

- **Source field** — paste any image URL; the preview updates instantly.
- **Edit with AI** — describe a change to the picture that's already there ("remove the
  background", "make it warmer", "add snow") and apply it. The edited picture replaces the
  original in the same box, at the same size; the original stays in your media library. See
  [Media library & AI image editing](https://support.estage.com/workspace-media-library).
- **Object fit** — control how the image fills its frame (cover, contain, fill…).
- **Opacity** — fade it.

### From your assets

The **Open Assets** button opens your media browser, where you can:

- Pick from images you've **uploaded**
- **Search Unsplash** for free stock photos
- **Generate an image with AI** from a description

Select one and it replaces the image source.

#### Upload limits

The media library accepts files **up to 12 MB**, and shows the size limit for **every file type**
up front — so you know before you pick. If something is too big, you get a plain message saying so
rather than a raw error.

### Through chat

With the image selected, describe what you want:

- *"a cozy coffee shop interior, warm light"* → Genesis **generates** a new image to match
- Paste an image URL with the image selected → swaps it in
- *"find a photo of mountains at sunset"* → searches stock photos

> **Note**
>
> Genesis generates a fresh image file when replacing AI images, so you never get a stale cached
> picture after a change.
