How to Use the Image Editing Feature

User Guide:
First, enter the Image Editing feature from the homepage. Please make sure that you are registered and logged into KokoroLab.
Tutorial intro
We provide two modes: Image Editing and Image Variation. The following guide will walk you through both functions.

Image Editing Mode

Image Editing mode allows you to change the entire image based on your prompt, creating a new version of the scene that remains visually consistent.
Tutorial step 2
Select the KokoroLab model, upload your reference character image, story mode will auto selected, and enter this prompt:
Change her pose to form a heart shape with both hands in front of her chest, facing the camera
Click Generate, and you will see the model begin working on your request.
Tutorial step 3
Great! You have now created a new scene together with KokoroLab, turning imagination into reality.
KokoroLab also supports tags, which allow you to describe actions without writing long sentences. Simply enter the tag, and the model will perform accurate visual changes. Example: v-gesture
Tutorial variation 3
You can combine multiple tags to describe different elements. If you use more than one, please separate them with commas.
Tutorial variation 3

Image Variation Mode

Image Variation mode allows you to change only specific parts of the image, keeping everything else untouched.
Switch to Diff Mode, and you will notice the mode tag automatically appears in front of your prompt. This tells the model to apply changes more precisely.
Tutorial variation 1
Try this prompt:
Change her outfit to a school uniform.
Tutorial variation 2
Now you know the basics of Image Editing and Variation.
Start exploring and create your own anime world with KokoroLab!

Advanced Settings

If you want to explore more generation possibilities, feel free to try the following options:
Tutorial settings 6
Seed:Used to control whether the generated result can be reproduced. Set to empty or -1: every result will be different. Set to a fixed number: the same image can be generated again.
Steps:Determines how many times the model optimizes the image. More steps: more complete details and higher quality, but longer generation time. Fewer steps: faster generation, but possibly fewer details.
CFG Txt:Controls how strongly the model follows the text prompt. Higher value: closer to the prompt. Lower value: more freedom and more variation.
CFG Img:Controls how closely the result preserves the reference image. Higher value: closer to the original image. Lower value: larger changes and more flexibility.
Display Scale:Balances generation speed and image quality. Low Scale: better quality. High Scale: faster generation.
