Usage

The Prompt Reader Node functions similarly to the standalone SD Prompt Reader. Here’s a delightful analogy to help you understand its functionality:

Imagine your computer as a library, and the images as books. The SD Prompt Reader Node acts like a librarian who not only organizes the books but also notes down key details like the author and the publication year (metadata) for future reference. This allows any interested reader (or AI tool) to find all the relevant information about the book quickly.

To use the Prompt Reader Node:

• Embed the Prompt Saver Node within the workflow to maximize compatibility.
• Modify the parameter_index for images with multiple sets of parameters.
• For batch processing, use the Batch Loader node.

Troubleshooting

Here are some troubleshooting tips if you encounter issues:

• Ensure that all necessary dependencies are installed correctly.
• Check if you have connected the Prompt Reader Node properly with other components.
• If the output isn’t as expected, revisit the input parameters to ensure they are set correctly.
