So often, details of my prompt are ignored.

For example, though I didn't ask for plants in my scene, there were lots of flowering plants in the generated art. I edited my prompt, saying "No foliage is visible." The next batch all had flowers nonetheless. Then I enabled the prompt enhancements. The "enhanced" prompt also made this clear: " The hills in the background add depth, while the lack of foliage keeps the scene open and expansive." And, still, the next 4 generated illustrations had flowers. What am I supposed to do? It seems stuck, and the more I try to steer it, the more subbornly it persists on giving me what I asked it NOT to. This happened before when it kept inserting a microphone into an illustration of Sojourner Truth. (Ha! There were none in her time!) I told it in every way possible not to include a mic. It did it again and again.

Hi DanFeather!

Thanks for sharing the prompt. It helps. Currently, Firefly doesn't understand negative prompting. So, adding it to a prompt will add it to your image. For example, in your prompt, no mic will add a mic. You can try to remove these words and see the results. Also, please add your vote here on a feature request and follow for updates.

Dear Kartika,

Wow! I should have guessed—from the way my screaming only magnified the effect—what was going on. Thanks so much for making it explicit.

Onward,
