# SD Webui ReSharpen This is an Extension for the [Automatic1111 Webui](https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui), which allows you to increase or decrease the amount of *details* of the generation during the Stable Diffusion pipeline. > **ie.** This is not just a postprocessing filter ## How to Use There is simply a slider that controls the "sharpness" of the images, defaulting to 0. - **Positive** values cause the images to be **noisy** - **Negative** values cause the images to be **blurry** > Though, don't actually use values too close 1 or -1 as it will become distorted For `txt2img`, there is also a second slider for the `Hires. Fix` pass. You can set positive for the normal pass and negative for the hr pass, or vice versa, for some interesting effects. There is also now a scaling setting, allowing you to adjust the strength throughout the process *(**eg.** lower the sharpness towards the end)*. > This Extension is disabled during the [ADetailer](https://github.com/Bing-su/adetailer) phase **Note:** `Ancestral` samplers *(**eg.** `Euler a`)* do **not** work. Tested and confirmed to work for both `Euler` and `DPM++ 2M Karras`. ## Samples

## How does it work? I initially wrote this Extension to try speeding up the Diffusion process. Since the latent noises gradually converges to around 0, I tried to see if I can just add the delta between the current step and the previous step, perhaps multipled by a scaler, to the current Tensor, in order to help it reaches 0 faster. However, after fiddling around for a week, I still couldn't get it to consistently produce an actually better result. So I gave up on the original idea. Though in the process, I also found out this "sharpening" interaction. If I had to guess, since the Diffusion is a denoising process, if I add the delta again, then it will overly denoise to create a blurry image; if I subtract the delta, then it will basically add the noise back to create a noisy image. ## To Do - [X] Generation InfoText - [X] Pasting InfoText Support - [X] X/Y/Z Plot Support - [X] Scaling Support
