1- Tap the visual card.
2- Select the creation mode:
- From Drawing: Preserves the composition and lines of the drawing on the selected page, repainting it only by changing its style. Use it to turn your sketches into a completed illustration.
- From Notes: Reads the text on the selected page, interprets its content, and draws a completely new visual. Independent of drawing, use it to visualize what you've written.
3- Select the source page. Choose a page containing a drawing in "From Drawing" mode, or a page containing text in "From Notes" mode.
4- Use one of two methods to determine how the image will be created:
- Ready-made Templates: Tap one of the predefined style cards. The selected card is highlighted in orange. Each card contains the name of the style and a small preview image.
- Custom Prompt: Describe the image you want in your own words. Type style, color, atmosphere, or content details in the text field (e.g., "a watercolor landscape in pastel tones at sunset"). The more detailed the description, the closer the result will be to your expectations.
5- Tap Create. The AI creates the image and displays it in the chat. A progress indicator is shown during the creation process.
