The expand edit converts your portrait headshot into a 16:9 landscape format — perfect for LinkedIn banners, website headers, presentation slides, or cover photos.

## How It Works

1.  Open a headshot in the Magic Editor
2.  Click **Expand to landscape**
3.  Choose where you want to appear in the frame: **left**, **center**, or **right**
4.  A preview shows the 16:9 result before you confirm
5.  Click **Expand Image** to apply

The AI extends the background to fill the wider frame while keeping you in your chosen position.

## Position Options

-   **Left** — you on the left side, open space on the right
-   **Center** — you centered in the frame (recommended)
-   **Right** — you on the right side, open space on the left

> Want to change the framing vertically instead? Use the [Camera Position](https://jobfoto.ch/help/magic-editor/camera-position) options — **Half Body** or **Full Body** — to zoom out and show more of your body.
