  3. Adjust variation strength (how different the results should be)

  4. Set number of variations to generate

  5. Click Generate to create your variations

Variation Strength

Control how different your variations will be:

Low Strength (10-30%)

  • Subtle changes

  • Same composition and colors

  • Minor detail differences

  • Good for fine-tuning

Medium Strength (40-60%)

  • Noticeable differences

  • Similar overall feel

  • Varied interpretations

  • Best for exploration

High Strength (70-100%)

  • Significant changes

  • New interpretations

  • Different compositions possible

  • Good for creative exploration

When to Use Variations
