This is a Lemmy Community for perchance.org, a platform for sharing and creating random text generators.

Feel free to ask for help, share your generators, and start friendly discussions at your leisure :)

This community is mainly for discussions between those who are building generators. For discussions about using generators, especially the popular AI ones, the community-led Casual Perchance forum is likely a more appropriate venue.

Rules

1. Please follow the Lemmy.World instance rules.

2. Be kind and friendly.

  • Please be kind to others on this community (and also in general), and remember that for many people Perchance is their first experience with coding. We have members for whom English is not their first language, so please be take that into account too :)

3. Be thankful to those who try to help you.

  • If you ask a question and someone has made a effort to help you out, please remember to be thankful! Even if they don't manage to help you solve your problem - remember that they're spending time out of their day to try to help a stranger :)

4. Only post about stuff related to perchance.

  • Please only post about perchance related stuff like generators on it, bugs, and the site.

5. Refrain from requesting Prompts for the AI Tools.

  • We would like to ask to refrain from posting here needing help specifically with prompting/achieving certain results with the AI plugins (text-to-image-plugin and ai-text-plugin) e.g. "What is the good prompt for X?", "How to achieve X with Y generator?"
  • See Perchance AI FAQ for FAQ about the AI tools.
  • You can ask for help with prompting at the 'sister' community Casual Perchance, which is for more casual discussions.
  • We will still be helping/answering questions about the plugins as long as it is related to building generators with them.

6. Search through the Community Before Posting.

  • Please Search through the Community Posts here (and on Reddit) before posting to see if what you will post has similar post/already been posted.

Embedding one input inside another (lemmy.world)

hello people... I have a bit of a weird question. Say I have two dropdown lists named "Btype" and another named "Environment" Is there a way to implement the [Environment] input into a [Btype] input. I'm wondering if and how this can be achieved. I tried the following, yet it doesn't work:

Btype label = building type type = select options Default = , House = Generate a house with garden in the style of [input.Environment], House with 2 floors and slanted roof,

All help is much appreciated, thanks.

sorry... your suggestion still triggers an error on my end... yet I found an effective, yet code-heavier, solution to avoid errors... conditional prompting::

        Line-Art style
          if [input.Lighting] != "":
          prompt = [input.description], (line drawing:1.8), (no gradients:1.8), clean lines, no color, black and white, visible hatching, high contrast, high resolution, high detail, intricate details, 4k, wallpaper, concept art, pen on paper, [input:Lighting]
          else:
          prompt = [input.description], (line drawing:1.8), (no gradients:1.8), clean lines, no color, black and white, visible hatching, high contrast, high resolution, high detail, intricate details, 4k, wallpaper, concept art, pen on paper, 
          negative = [input.negative], low-quality, deformed, text, poorly drawn, 3D, color, gradients, greyscale, shading

What does that even do? I've never seen code like that in perchance documentation or anywhere else. Does that actually do anything?

Got a link to a generator that uses this code? It might stop the error but not actually do anything; if [input.Lighting] != "": would just be an item within the Line-Art style list. 🤷

If you could give me a link to the code I gave not working, I could look at the error and figure it out for you.

https://perchance.org/ai-architecture-generator Don't mind the clutter in the styles... I'm trying to cook a soup from those! I added your suggested snippet into the "House" btype (building type)... where I tried to implement the selection of Rtype (roof type)... I hope I done it right, but I doubt it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Ah, you're actually putting it in a different place that I thought you were. Also, the values of the dropdowns don't work the way I thought they did 😂

It seems perhaps [input.Rtype] is what you're meant to use with that system to get the current prompt from that. (It's a bit complicated honestly--I use my own plugin so I'm not experienced with t2i... 😅)

What exactly were you trying to do? If it's just to include the value in the other part of the prompt, the above should work (I guess). But you did that before right--what happens if you do that?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yes it did actually work... But VioneT was bright enough to remind me of the case sensitivity, which I totally missed in that one. You were right to assums I just wanted to include a value in another prompt, and by doing so, simply combine prompts before they are sent to the output. I'm not sure, but I think that way it'll be easier to manage the weight of certain inputs. So, if I'm correct (like I did in the gen, and as far as my brain lets me figure things out for itself), if I embed a certain input into all options of a different dropdown, with [input.Rtype], I could take that one out of the imageOptions prompts list, right... or else it will be double? By doing that I hope to create a more "workable" promptline for the AI to interpret. But I dunno... I'm just trying to make it make sense in my own brain, tbh.

Yeah, looks like what you did by commenting that out of the prompt is about right. 👍

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

It seems to me you are accessing the other inputs with :? It should be [input.Lighting] not [input:Lighting] if you have an input with:

Lighting
  label = Lighting
  type = select
  options 
    ...

Also, you can have the lists in the prompt like so:

Line-Art style
  prompt
    [input.description], (line drawing:1.8), (no gradients:1.8), clean lines, no color, black and white, visible hatching, high contrast, high resolution, high detail, intricate details, 4k, wallpaper, concept art, pen on paper, [input.Lighting != ""] ^[input.Lighting]
    [input.description], (line drawing:1.8), (no gradients:1.8), clean lines, no color, black and white, visible hatching, high contrast, high resolution, high detail, intricate details, 4k, wallpaper, concept art, pen on paper,  ^[input.Lighting == ""]
  negative = [input.negative], low-quality, deformed, text, poorly drawn, 3D, color, gradients, greyscale, shading

So that you can use Dynamic Odds in selecting which prompt to use if input.Lighting was added/selected.

You could also link the generator so we can directly see any problems.
