Fixing Overused Details

Sometimes the AI latches onto one detail (like a hat, stroller, or shirt color) and repeats it on every page. Here’s how to adjust it.

Updated this week


When to Use Edit

The Edit tool is best when you like most of the page but need to tone down or swap out a detail.

  • Keeps the rest of the page the same.

  • Great for small changes like clothing, accessories, or background items.

Examples

  • “Make the blue backpack less noticeable, keep everything else the same.”

  • “Change Dad’s green hat to a plain gray one, keep the background and family the same.”


When to Use Regenerate

The Regenerate tool is best when the repeated detail is overwhelming the entire page or keeps coming back after multiple edits.

  • Redraws the whole page from your story text.

  • Useful if the AI is “stuck” on a repeated object.

Examples

  • “Regenerate this page, keep the same family, but remove the red stroller.”

  • “Regenerate this page in watercolor style, focus on the aquarium tank instead of the stroller.”


Editing Tips

  • Refocus the prompt: “Highlight the fish tank instead of the stroller, keep the family unchanged.”

  • Be specific: Short, clear edits work best.

  • Use reference and style guide images: They help the AI stay consistent on important details while letting go of the repeated one.


Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Repeating the same detail in every prompt
    “Red stroller, red stroller, red stroller” → AI exaggerates it.

  • Stacking edits
    “Remove stroller, change hat, fix shirt, add fish” → Do one edit at a time.

  • Being too vague
    “Tone it down,” “Fix the clothes” → AI won’t know what to change.


FAQ

Why does the AI keep repeating one detail?
The AI tries to stay consistent across pages. If you emphasize the same object or detail too often in your prompts or story, it may overuse it.

Can I stop the detail from showing up on all pages?
Yes. Avoid repeating the same object in every prompt. Instead, describe it once in your story text and let the AI carry it through naturally.

Should I use Edit or Regenerate?

  • Use Edit for one small fix (like changing a color or removing a single item).

  • Use Regenerate if the repeated detail overwhelms the whole page or persists after multiple edits.

What if I like the detail on one page but not the others?
That’s normal! Keep it in one illustration by using Edit to tone it down or remove it in the others.
