Generative Expand is always grayed out

[Conquest]

Does the expand feature work with placed images in InDesign or only images generated by AI?

Whenever I try to expand an image the command is grayed out.

Help!

Make sure the image is smaller(!) then the frame it is in (you should see 'empty space' in the frame, top, left, right, left or a combination).

Sorry, but this doesn't work for me, except with jpg file.

[Frans v.d. Geest]

So it does work, but only with jpg as source? What format it is in when it does noet work?

Be sure to not use a vector image and/or to not use a CMYK image.
