    Beginner's Guide to Inpainting (Step-by-Step Examples)

    Practical guide covering inpainting-specific prompt strategies, mask creation, denoising strength settings, and how to write prompts that work well for partial image regeneration and defect fixing.

    Prompt
    Inpainting Prompt Techniques:
    
    1. **Mask Precision**: Paint mask carefully over the area to regenerate
    2. **Prompt Focus**: Write prompts describing ONLY the masked area, not the whole image
    3. **Denoising Strength**:
       - 0.2-0.4: Subtle changes, keeps most original content
       - 0.5-0.7: Moderate changes, blends new and old
       - 0.8-1.0: Complete regeneration of masked area
    4. **Inpainting Models**: Use dedicated inpainting models for best edge blending
    5. **Mask Padding**: Add padding around mask for smoother transitions
    6. **Context Awareness**: The model uses surrounding pixels for context
    7. **Iterative Refinement**: Multiple passes at lower denoising for subtle fixes
    
    Common Fixes: hands, faces, eyes, backgrounds, clothing details

    How to Use

    Mask the area you want to change, write a prompt describing what should replace it, and adjust denoising strength based on how much change you want.
