Midjourney: Using Seed Numbers for Consistency

Demo summary
The demo shows how to copy a seed number from a previous generation and reuse it to maintain composition across different prompts.
Step-by-step
- Locate the generated image you want to reference
- Go to the 'More' menu
- Click 'Copy'
- Select 'Seed'
- Type your prompt followed by the parameter '--seed'
- Paste the copied seed number after the parameter
Watch out for
- If you do not specify a seed, Midjourney uses a random number each time, resulting in different compositions
Tips
- Use the same seed number when comparing different parameters to ensure a more direct comparison
- Note that using the same seed with completely different prompts influences the scene, but the results are not always predictable
