How to Adjust Creative Cropping & Layout

Media is cropped automatically to each format's media window — but when you want control over the crop or layout, here's where it lives.

Per-size crop in Ad Builder

On the Spread step, switch the Customize panel to Pro. Under Essentials → Crop & layout you control:

  • Layout — framed post, edge-to-edge, story, or banner-only

  • Media aspect — the crop applied to your source media for this size

Pro mode edits the selected size tile only; Basic mode applies your change to every size in the pack.

Per-variant editor in the Pack

On the Pack step, click Edit variant on any tile for a focused editor with the same controls scoped to that one variant. Save and close keeps your edits; Reset clears layout nudges only.

Three tips for sharp media

  1. Upload the highest-resolution source you have. Assets are targeted at 2× the media window so they stay sharp on high-density screens — the builder flags anything below that as low resolution.

  2. Upload full, uncropped source rather than pre-cropped files. Extra pixels scale down cleanly; missing pixels can't be recovered.

  3. Check the media windows. Exact per-size dimensions — including how each caption line trims media height — live in Creative Specs.
