The image generation settings will vary depending on the model that you select.
Use the Aspect ratio option to define the dimensions of the image variations you generate.
Select the Content type from Art, Photo, or set Firefly to auto-choose the content type based on the prompt.
Use the Visual intensity slider to set the intensity of the image's visual attributes.
You can use the Composition section to define a structure or composition by uploading an image and making sure that the generated image variation aligns with it. Adjust the Strength slider to specify the outline intensity and depth adherence in the generated variations.
Use the Styles section if you want to guide the image generation to match the visual style and aesthetic of the reference image. Use the Strength slider to control the adherence to the reference image.
If you need a specific style for your image, you can choose from the available effects and optionally specify the Color and tone, Lighting, and Camera angle.
In the Prompt field, enter a detailed description of the image you wish to create.
