The Web Editor
- DarkLight
The editor combines the Vary Region, Pan, and Zoom features into a single unifed web interface. Check out this video for a quick overview of what you can do, then read on to learn more!
Opening the Editor
Once you've generated an image you want to continue experimenting with, click on it to open the lightbox, then click the Editor
button.
Using the Editor
- The Editor offers a streamlined web interface for continuing to experiment with your favorite Midjourney generations. You can Remix, Vary Region, Pan, and Zoom at the same time, in any combination.
- When you're happy with the changes you've made, click
Submit
to begin generating your new image. Your new images will appear on the Create tab when they're finished. - The Editor can only be used with images generated with Midjourney.
Editor Tools
1. Erase
Change parts of an image you like by Erasing the areas you want to re-generate. For the best results, select some extra space around the details you'd like to change so Midjourney has space to work. This is the default Editor tool. (This works smiliarly to the Vary Region feature.)
2. Restore
Refine the selections you made with Erase.
3. Undo / Redo / Reset
Undo the last change you made in the Editor, re-do the last change you un-did, or reset the interface to the way it was when you first opened the Editor.
4. Brush Size
Control the diameter of the Erase / Restore brush to select larger or smaller parts of the image at a time.
5. Scale
Move this slider down to expand your image in all directions. The farther down you go, the more space Midjourney will create around your original image. (This works similarly to the Zoom Out feature.)
6. Aspect Ratio Selection
Choose a new aspect ratio for your image. You'll see an outline of the new shape of your image, and when you submit your job, Midjourney will expand the original to fit that space. (This works similarly to the Custom Zoom feature.
7. Edit Prompt
Click and type here to make changes to your prompt. You can change the text, add or remove parameters, or add, remove, or change how you're using reference images. The Reset Prompt
button will restore the prompt used to create your original image. (Changing your prompt this way functions similarly to the Remix feature.)
It can be helpful to change your prompt to reflect the changes you want to make in the image — for example, if you're erasing details, it can be helpful to describe the details you want to see in the image instead, or if you're expanding the images, describe what you want to see in the new space.
8. Reposition
This icon appears in the middle of your existing image. Click and drag to reposition your existing image. Any new blank space will be filled when you submit your job. Any parts of the image that disappear won't be part of your new job.
9. Size Bars
Instead of using the Scale slider or aspect ratio buttons, you can use the small bars that appear around the edges of your image to extend or crop your image. (This works similarly to the Pan feature.)
10. Submit / Back / Close
Once you're happy with the changes you've made, Submit
your job! You'll see the new generation added to your Create tab queue. Close the Editor to navigate to there and see your results.
The Back button will return you to the original image's lightbox view.
