|  |  | Generate Image

Generate Image is a resizable panel where you can create AI generated images based on a description you provide. Enter your prompt, choose your AI model and settings, press Generate, and wait for your image. Images will be shown but also displayed in a slide strip of thumbnails under the main image. Click on each to view and compare them. If your AI model supports editing, e.g., the Flux models, you can select a thumbnail, enter changes for the image in the prompt field and press the Edit button. The image will be processed and changed per your instructions. And if you have an existing image you want to modify, copy it to the clipboard, open the Generate Image window, click the display area, and paste it in. Now enter your new instructions and edit the image. The controls on this panel are simple to use. Name: Provide a name for the image. If none is entered, the prompt will be used as the name. Prompt: This is the description of the image you want created. Be as specific as you need to be. Model: This is the generative AI model you specified in the settings. Aspect Ratio: Choose from predetermined aspect ratios. Supported sizes are: `1:1`, `16:9 (9:16)`, and `4:3 (3:4)`. The size of the resulting image is controlled by this setting, the generative model, and optionally, the quality setting. Quality: Choose whether to create a Standard or HD image. Not supported by all models. At the bottom of the panel are buttons to Generate (⌘G) a new image, Edit (⌘E) to edit the current image, Save (⌘S) the document, or Close and dismiss the image. Take some time to craft your prompt to avoid to much back and forth interaction. The more specific you are, the more you can help steer things toward what you imagine.
Note: This requires an API key for a text-to-image generative AI model.
