Variations

A new seed gives a completely different picture. Variations give pictures close to one you have selected as a basis.

From a picture in your history

Click Generate similar image under it. Blokjutsu loads its settings, switches on Variations, and makes Images many variations.

The Variations controls

  • Strength: how different each variation is (examples below). 0.05 is a subtle nudge, 0.2 (the default) a clear variation, 0.5 and above a loose relative.
  • Variation seed: 0 means new variations every time; a number repeats the same ones.

What Strength does

Variations at strengths 0, 0.10, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, and 1.00, all from the same picture: the cat seed from Samplers and steps with a new prompt. 512 × 512, Adherence 4.

What to notice:

  • Up to about 0.25, it’s the same picture with small changes: the skyline, the moon, the fur.
  • At 0.5 and 0.75, the room and the light change while the idea stays.
  • At 1.0, it’s a new picture, as different as a new seed.
