Pan is a new feature available on Midjourney that allows you to expand your images in any direction you want. The feature works similarly to the Zoom Out tool that was recently released, but unlike the latter, Pan can only be used to expand the canvas on one side, not all four.
Extend/pan images in any direction with Midjourney | Update July 2023
You can pan an image to expand one side of an image you created in Midjourney after scaling it up. In addition to expanding the canvas to your selected direction, Midjourney will also increase the resolution of the panned image.
Currently, the Pan option only allows you to extend images from one side at a time, but you cannot pan both horizontally and vertically in one image. If you want to extend your image from multiple sides, you will need to use the pan tool to extend on one side, scale up one of the generated creations, and then use the Pan option to extend the image on another side.
To use the Pan feature on Midjourney, you will first need to create an image on the AI tool using an initial prompt. If you want to expand on one of your existing images, you can skip the next set of steps and go to the next part.
