ComfyUI Node: IPAdapter Style & Composition SDXL

IPAdapter Style & Composition SDXL:

The IPAdapterStyleComposition node is designed to facilitate advanced style and composition transfer in AI-generated images, specifically tailored for SDXL models. This node allows you to blend the stylistic elements and compositional features from two different images into a single output, providing a powerful tool for creating unique and visually compelling artwork. By adjusting various parameters, you can control the influence of style and composition, combine embeddings in different ways, and fine-tune the process to achieve the desired artistic effect. This node is particularly beneficial for artists looking to experiment with complex image transformations and achieve high-quality results.

IPAdapter Style & Composition SDXL Input Parameters:

model

This parameter specifies the model to be used for the style and composition transfer. It is a required input and should be set to the appropriate model type.

ipadapter

This parameter refers to the IPAdapter model to be used in the process. It is a required input and ensures that the correct IPAdapter model is applied.

image_style

This parameter takes an image input that serves as the source of the style to be transferred. It is a required input and significantly influences the stylistic elements of the output image.

image_composition

This parameter takes an image input that serves as the source of the composition to be transferred. It is a required input and determines the compositional structure of the output image.

weight_style

This parameter controls the weight of the style transfer. It is a float value with a default of 1.0, a minimum of -1, a maximum of 5, and a step of 0.05. Adjusting this value changes the intensity of the style applied to the output image.

weight_composition

This parameter controls the weight of the composition transfer. It is a float value with a default of 1.0, a minimum of -1, a maximum of 5, and a step of 0.05. Adjusting this value changes the intensity of the composition applied to the output image.

expand_style

This boolean parameter determines whether to expand the style influence. It has a default value of False. When set to True, it enhances the stylistic features in the output image.

combine_embeds

This parameter specifies the method to combine embeddings. Options include "concat", "add", "subtract", "average", and "norm average", with a default value of "average". This setting affects how the style and composition embeddings are merged.

start_at

This parameter defines the starting point of the style and composition transfer process. It is a float value with a default of 0.0, a minimum of 0.0, a maximum of 1.0, and a step of 0.001. It controls when the transfer begins during the image generation.

end_at

This parameter defines the ending point of the style and composition transfer process. It is a float value with a default of 1.0, a minimum of 0.0, a maximum of 1.0, and a step of 0.001. It controls when the transfer ends during the image generation.

embeds_scaling

This parameter specifies the scaling method for embeddings. Options include "V only", "K+V", "K+V w/ C penalty", and "K+mean(V) w/ C penalty". This setting affects how the embeddings are scaled during the transfer process.

image_negative (optional)

This optional parameter takes an image input that serves as a negative example, potentially influencing the output by reducing certain features.

attn_mask (optional)

This optional parameter takes a mask input that can be used to focus the attention on specific areas of the image during the transfer process.

clip_vision (optional)

This optional parameter specifies the CLIPVision model to be used, enhancing the transfer process by incorporating vision-based features.

IPAdapter Style & Composition SDXL Output Parameters:

output_image

The output of the IPAdapterStyleComposition node is the final image that combines the stylistic elements and compositional features from the input images. This image reflects the adjustments made through the various input parameters, providing a unique and artistically enhanced result.

IPAdapter Style & Composition SDXL Usage Tips:

• Experiment with different weight_style and weight_composition values to find the perfect balance between style and composition in your output image.
• Use the combine_embeds parameter to explore different methods of merging embeddings, which can significantly alter the final result.
• Adjust the start_at and end_at parameters to control the timing of the transfer process, allowing for more precise artistic control.
• Utilize the expand_style parameter to enhance stylistic features when a more pronounced style transfer is desired.

IPAdapter Style & Composition SDXL Common Errors and Solutions:

"Missing CLIPVision model."

• Explanation: This error occurs when the CLIPVision model is not provided or loaded in the pipeline.
• Solution: Ensure that the CLIPVision model is loaded using the IPAdapterUnifiedLoader node before running the IPAdapterStyleComposition node.

"Style + Composition transfer is only available for SDXL models at the moment."

• Explanation: This error indicates that the style and composition transfer feature is currently only supported for SDXL models.
• Solution: Verify that you are using an SDXL model. If not, switch to an SDXL model to utilize this feature.

"IPAdapter model not present in the pipeline."

• Explanation: This error occurs when the IPAdapter model is not loaded in the pipeline.
• Solution: Load the IPAdapter model using the IPAdapterUnifiedLoader node before running the IPAdapterStyleComposition node.
