Improve Your Midjourney Art: Learn How to Use the Built-in Editor

Midjourney creates amazing images. But sometimes, they aren't perfect right away. You might see issues like extra fingers, weird text, or faces that just don't look right. Or maybe you forgot to add something when you wrote your prompt.

That's where the Midjourney image editor comes in handy. It helps you fix mistakes and make changes to your pictures AFTER you've generated them. Let's look at how to get the most out of this tool.

Why You Need the Midjourney Editor

Midjourney is powerful, but it doesn't get everything right on the first try. Common problems include:

• Hands with the wrong number of fingers or weird shapes.

• Text that is misspelled or looks jumbled.

• Faces that seem distorted, especially when there are several people.

• Small flaws or details that just don't look right.

The editor is made to help you clean up these issues without starting over.

Finding and Using the Editor

You find the editor when you look at the detailed view of your image. There's a section on the right with options. Click the button to enter the editor screen.

Inside the editor, you'll see your image and a toolbar at the top. On the side, you'll see your original prompt and other settings.

Changing the Image Format

A simple but useful feature is changing the aspect ratio. You can easily reframe, enlarge, or shrink your image.

It's best to do format changes AFTER you have upscaled your image to its highest resolution. This gives you more flexibility and freedom. It's great for adapting images for different social media platforms that need specific sizes.

The Erase and Regenerate Tool

Next to the format tools are the erase and restore buttons. There's also a size control for the brush.

The erase tool lets you paint over parts of your image you want to change. Once you select an area, click "Submit." Midjourney will then create new versions of ONLY the selected area, keeping the rest of your image the same.

This is the main way you fix errors. It's usually best to fix one problem spot at a time. Select the area, regenerate, and repeat until all the issues are gone. If you make a mistake selecting, the restore button undoes your brush strokes.

Fixing every small error can take time and require many steps. If you're doing a lot of work with Midjourney, speeding up parts of your workflow can make a big difference. Tools like the TitanXT Midjourney Automation Suite can help manage and streamline repetitive tasks, giving you more time to focus on the creative details.

Making Targeted Changes

The erase tool isn't just for fixing errors. You can use it to change specific parts of your image even if nothing is wrong. For example, you could select a character's glasses, hair, or shoes and regenerate just that area. Midjourney will try different options based on your original prompt, keeping the rest of the scene unchanged.

Did you forget to include something important in your prompt? You can use the erase tool to select the area where you want to add the detail, and then edit the prompt on the side to include the new description.

Midjourney will use your updated prompt and the selected area to blend in the new element. You could add text to a t-shirt, put a hat on a character, or make other specific additions. This lets you perfect your images and even create slightly different versions from the same starting point.

Refining images this way adds polish, which is especially important if you are using them professionally. For users needing to quickly process and refine multiple images, automating parts of the process can save huge amounts of time. Check out the TitanXT Midjourney Automation Suite to explore how it can help manage your workflow and produce final images faster.

Beyond the Basic Editor

You might see a link for a "Full Editor" or "Advanced Editor." This version has more features but is usually available only to users with specific subscription levels or high usage counts (like generating many images). The standard editor covered here is powerful enough for many common tasks.

Conclusion

The Midjourney image editor is a must-know tool for anyone serious about creating high-quality pictures. It gives you control to fix problems, make specific changes, and add details you missed. Practicing with the erase and regenerate tool will help you get better results.

Mastering editing takes time, but it's worth it to get your images just right. If you find yourself spending a lot of time on repetitive editing steps, consider how automation could help. The TitanXT Midjourney Automation Suite offers tools designed to make your Midjourney workflow more efficient.
