How to use Realtime Canvas IN-PAINTING! AI Image Editing with Leonardo AI

Introduction

Leonardo AI has introduced a powerful new feature: real-time inpainting, alongside its existing real-time canvas editor. This allows users to creatively edit their images—be it photographs, illustrations, or even AI-generated art—live on the platform. This article will guide you through the steps to utilize this exciting feature effectively.

Getting Started with Realtime Canvas

1. Log into Your Leonardo AI Account: If you don't have one yet, be sure to create an account by following the link provided in the description.

2. Access the Realtime Canvas: Navigate to the Realtime Canvas section. If you’re new to this, refer to the tutorial in the description for a detailed introduction.

3. Create an Image: Initially, you can type in a prompt such as "a red monster" and let the AI generate an image for you. If you want to start fresh, you can easily reset the canvas.

Understanding Inpainting

1. Navigate to Inpaint: To edit an existing image, head over to the inpaint section. You can select an image to start editing.

2. Upload an Image: Click on the "Add Image" option at the top. Whether it's your own creation or one from the community feed, you can upload it directly.

3. Resizing the Image: Use the corner handles to resize without stretching your image. Remember that grabbing a side handle will distort your image.

Drawing and Editing

1. Utilize the Brush Tool: Choose the brush tool and adjust its color and size to add elements. For example, you can draw columns on a building.

2. Strength Setting: The inpaint strength setting allows control over how much the AI interprets your drawing. You can adjust this for more creative outcomes.

3. Adding Details: Fine-tune your image by introducing shadows, highlights, or other details. Experiment with different colors for precise enhancements.

4. Layering Images: You can also add transparent PNGs. Adjust their position by using the arrows to shuffle layers back and forth as needed.

5. Using the Eraser Tool: To remove unwanted portions of the image or adjustments, you can use the eraser tool wisely to delete parts of your composition.

Refining Your Image

1. Instant Refine Option: When you’re satisfied with your edits, use the instant refine feature. Adjust the styling by switching between different profiles (e.g., cinematic, concept art).

2. Upscale Your Image: After refining, upscale your final image for enhanced quality.

3. Personal Feed: Once you exit the editor, go to your personal feed where the final image will be saved.

Conclusion

However, note that the platform is still evolving, so results may vary. Experiment with the features and enjoy the creative process. If you're looking for a tutorial on using the live canvas, check out the video available.
