Creating Images with the General Assistant

When to Use Image Tools

You can use image generation when you need to:

• Create simple visual assets

• Generate backgrounds or illustrative images

• Support presentations or documents with visuals

• Quickly explore visual ideas without design tools

Image generation is best suited for conceptual or illustrative images, not detailed design work.

How to Generate an Image

To create an image:

1. Open a chat with the General Assistant

2. Click the Image Tools button

3. Describe the image you want in detail

4. Submit your request

The assistant generates an image based on your description.

Writing an Effective Image Description

For better results, include:

• What the image should show

• Style (for example: corporate, modern, minimal)

• Colors or visual theme, if relevant

• Intended use (presentation, background, illustration)

Clear descriptions help the assistant generate more relevant images.

Example: Generating a Background Image

Example request:

Create a corporate-style blue gradient background with subtle patterns.
The image should look clean and professional.
Leave enough space for text to be added later.

This produces a usable background image for presentations or documents.

Common Limitations

When using image generation:

• Results may vary depending on how detailed the description is

• Very complex or highly specific visuals may require refinement

• Generated images are illustrative and may not replace custom design work

If the result is not what you expected, adjust the description and try again.

Best Practices

• Be specific, but concise

• Focus on one image per request

• Avoid mixing multiple visual styles in one description

• Regenerate the image if small adjustments are needed

These practices help produce clearer and more consistent visuals.
