FAQ
Why do the generated results vary?
Background Generation can create matching scenes, but it also has a certain degree of randomness and unpredictability. The quality of the generated results can be affected by the quality of the input images and the category of product. The scene generation capability performs better on consumer goods, but there may be variations in generated results for categories such as hardware and accessories.
What is the difference between the AI Scene mode and the Reference Image mode when generating using the editor?
In AI Scene mode, the generation will be more divergent, with greater diversity and richness, but it will also have higher unpredictability. In Reference Image mode, the generation will be more controllable, with a higher correlation to the reference image, resulting in smaller differences in the output. The choice of mode should depend on the actual image generation needs.
How many scene images can be generated in one API call?
A single task generates a minimum of 2 and a maximum of 10 scene images. If not specified, the default is to generate 4 images. For details, refer to the Image Background Generation API documentation.
