Model – until recently, we only had Adobe Firefly Vector models. Other ‘Partner Models‘ were introduced in late 2025 – GPT Image, Ideogram and Gemini (Nano Banana). You should experiment with the different models and other settings.

Ideally, create and select a rectangle before going to the menu command above, using the Generative pop-up at the bottom of the Toolbar, the button at the bottom of the Properties panel or in the Contextual Task Bar (or the icon on the right in the Control bar), then enter a prompt. If ‘Suggestions’ is turned on, several options will appear as you type or click one of the ‘Prompt Inspiration’ graphics to use as a starting point. Set ‘Content type’ to Icon.

Effects – are a set of ‘pre-packaged’ styles that the model will use as a reference. These can be used ‘solo’ or check off multiple effects for more variation.
