Prompt

Apply Masked Generation to one small background region, replacing its texture with a plausible continuation of adjacent surroundings. Match perspective, material grain, color, shadows, and edge softness, with an invisible transition at the mask boundary. Leave all unmasked pixels and the main subject untouched. Keep the original subject and composition.

Paste it into LetzAI with your own image to apply the effect ↗

Identify

Only a specific region is enabled for changes.

Principle

A binary mask1 controls where a generative system resynthesizes2.

Try it out

Vary the mask edge.

Classification

Schematic visualization, not neural inference.

Stable Diffusion Inpainting
02 Stable Diffusion InpaintingA side-by-side comparison shows an original photograph and a resynthesized version where the background and clothing are changed while the person's pose is preserved. It demonstrates inpainting within a generative framework.Ali Salesi · CC BY-SA 4.0 · Wikimedia Commons

03 Demonstration of inpainting and outpainting using Stable Diffusion (step 3 of 4)This frame displays an intermediate step of masked generation, where a hand-drawn black outline defines the region to be modified. It illustrates the spatial constraint applied to the diffusion process.Benlisquare · CC BY-SA 4.0 · Wikimedia Commons
