First Generation

Text Prompt

Beachside allows you to edit an image using a "text prompt." Before proceeding, ensure the task menu's first option Nano Banana Pro is selected, which is the AI model we will use for editing.

Let's use a simple prompt to change the fruits on the scene to lemons, instead of oranges:

  1. On the Generation Settings panel type this prompt: Change the oranges to lemons

  2. Click the Generate button at the bottom of the panel.

  3. Beachside will take a couple of seconds to generate 4 new scenes.
