Complete Guide to Using Ideogram V3 Reframe

AI outpainting and aspect ratio transformation -- extend and reframe images intelligently.

Try This ModelTutorial

Overview

Ideogram V3 Reframe is a specialized model for outpainting and aspect ratio transformation. Upload an image and select a new target size, and the model intelligently extends the image beyond its original boundaries, generating new content that seamlessly blends with the existing composition.

Unlike simple cropping or padding, Reframe uses AI to generate contextually appropriate content in the extended regions. It analyzes the existing image -- its subjects, lighting, colors, and style -- and produces new pixels that feel like a natural extension of the original scene.

This model is essential for adapting images to different aspect ratios without losing content. Transform a square portrait into a landscape banner, or extend a landscape photo into an ultrawide panorama. With batch generation support for up to 4 variations and seed control for reproducibility, Reframe offers both creative flexibility and production reliability.

Capabilities

  • AI outpainting with contextually generated content
  • Aspect ratio transformation without content loss
  • Seamless blending between original and generated regions
  • Multiple output size presets from square to ultrawide
  • Batch generation of up to 4 variations per request
  • Seed-based reproducibility and rendering speed options
