Do you often find yourself frustrated by creative block, leading to low work efficiency and spending a lot of time searching for suitable references or creative materials?

Currently, the STARTAI PS plugin mainly provides AI features, specifically: Text-to-Image, Generate Similar Image, Inpainting, Line Art Coloring, and Lossless Upscaling — five tools designed to tackle the tedious and tedious situations that arise during design work. The specific usage effects are as follows:

1. Text-to-Image

Designers describe their creative ideas in text, input keywords into the STARTAI PS plugin, and it can generate images that match the designer's vision while being highly creative. The operation is simple — just follow the steps below:

(1) First, select "Text-to-Image" from the AI features

(2) Prompt: Enter your descriptive words of ideas. Currently, only English input is supported.

Positive prompt: Enter the result you hope to get. The richer and more precise the adjectives, the better the generated result.

Negative prompt: Enter content you do not want to appear in the image, reducing interference with the generated result.

You can use the "Clear" button in the bottom-right corner to clear the currently entered prompt content with one click. If no keywords are entered, the AI will randomly generate an image for you.

You can customize the width and height of the generated image, up to a maximum of 1024*1024; if the "Follow Selection" option is enabled, the generated image size will match the selection size in PS, and the generated result can be inserted into the PS selection with one click.
