# The Workspace These are the basic features you will be using in the Paint Tab.\ All other tools will be explained further in [The Tools - in depth](/tutorials/resources/extra-features-tutorials/the-paint-tab/tools-and-functions/the-tools-in-depth.md) ## The Canvas Everything takes place on this canvas. You can start by dragging an image here. \ Images added to the canvas will get dropped at the top-left corner of the bounding box. Either drag the image here from a folder or your desktop, \ or drag the image in the starting image space onto the canvas, \ or paste it from the clipboard (ctrl+v),\ or use the [#import-image](#import-image "mention") button. The buttons at the top offer you a selection of tools to use in this space.

The canvas, with bounding box, layers, and settings

### The Bounding Box {% embed url="" %} The bounding box can only be interacted with when using the Bounding Box (K) tool The Bounding Box is the dotted rectangle on the canvas. \ It is the space currently being worked on. Can be moved by clicking on the dotted line\ Size can be altered by clicking on the square nodes. **Does not need** to be over the whole image but, \ The AI can't see anything outside the bounding box.\ Just to be clear about that. \ **Anything outside the bounding box does not exist** to the AI

If you don't have enough relevant parts of the image in this bounding box for the AI to reference, it will have a hard time making the changes you ask for. ### Layers New images will be placed onto different layers.\ Each layer can be moved independently.\ Opacity can be adjusted.\ Layers can be merged together.\
