-## Prompt Control v2
-
-Prompt control has been almost completely rewritten. It now uses ComfyUI's lazy execution to build graphs from the text prompt at runtime. The generated graph is often exactly equivalent to a manually built workflow using native ComfyUI nodes. There are no more weird sampling hooks that could cause problems with other nodes

-If you really need them, you can install the [legacy nodes](https://github.com/asagi4/comfyui-prompt-control-legacy). However, I will not fix bugs in those nodes, and I strongly recommend just migrating your workflows to the new nodes.

 - ComfyUI's caching mechanism has an issue that makes it unnecessarily invalidate caches for certain inputs; you'll still get some benefit from the lazy nodes, but changing inputs that shouldn't affect downstream nodes (especially if using filtering) will still cause them to be recomputed because ComfyUI doesn't realize the inputs haven't changed.

-It's a purely optional performance optimization that allows Prompt Control nodes to override their cache keys in a way that should not interfere with other nodes.

-
-Scheduling syntax is similar to A1111, but only fractions are supported for steps. LoRAs are scheduled by including them in a scheduling expression.
-
-```
-a [large::0.1] [cat|dog:0.05] [<lora:somelora:0.5:0.6>::0.5]
-[in a park:in space:0.4]
-```
-
-## Scheduled prompts
-
-There are two forms of scheduled prompts.
-
-### Basic scheduling expressions
-Basic expressions take the form `[before:after:X]` where `X` is the switch point, a decimal number between 0.0 and 1.0 inclusive, representing 0 to 100% of timesteps. Either prompt can also be empty.
-For example:
-```
-a [red:blue:0.5] cat
-```
-switches from `a red cat` to `a blue cat` at 0.5. `before` and `after` can be arbitrary prompts (`after` can also be empty), including other scheduling expressions, allowing nesting:
-```
-a [red:[blue::0.7]:0.5] cat
-```
-
-switches from `a red cat` to `a blue cat` at 0.5 and to `a cat` at 0.7
-
-For convenience `[cat:0.5]` is equivalent to `[:cat:0.5]` meaning it switches from empty to `cat` at 0.5.
-
-### Range expressions
-
-The most general form of a schedule is a range expression: For example, in `[before:during:after:0.3,0.7]`, The prompt be `a before` until 0.3, `a during` until 0.7, and then `a after`. This form is equivalent to `[before:[during:after:0.7]:0.3]`
-
-For convenience, `[during:0.1,0.4]` is equivalent to `[:during::0.1,0.4]` and `[during:after:0.1,0.4]` is equivalent to `[:during:after:0.1,0.4]`.
-
-`[before:during:after:0.1]` is the same as `[before:during:after:0.1,1.0]` which is same as `[before:during:0.1]`
-
-
-### Using step numbers with the Advanced nodes
-
-If you provide a non-zero value to `num_steps` to the `Advanced` versions of the scheduling nodes, you will be able to use step numbers in prompts.
-
-For now, a value between 0 and 1.0 will be interpreted as a percentage if it contains a ., and as an absolute step otherwise.
-
-This is just syntactic sugar. Behind the scenes, the values are converted to percentages and have normal ComfyUI scheduling behaviour.
-
-## Tag selection
-Using the `FilterSchedule` node, in addition to step percentages, you can use a *tag* to select part of an input:
-```
-a large [dog:cat<lora:catlora:0.5>:SECOND_PASS]
-```
-Set the `tags` parameter in the `FilterSchedule` node to filter the prompt. If the tag matches any tag `tags` (comma-separated), the second option is returned (`cat`, in this case, with the LoRA). Otherwise, the first option is chosen (`dog`, without LoRA).
-
-the values in `tags` are case-insensitive, but the tags in the input **must** be uppercase A-Z and underscores only, or they won't be recognized. That is, `[dog:cat:hr]` will not work.
-
-For example, a prompt
-```
-a [black:blue:X] [cat:dog:Y] [walking:running:Z] in space
-```
-with `tags` `x,z` would result in the prompt `a blue cat running in space`
-
-The three prompt form `[a:b:c:TAG]` is parsed, but ignores `b` and is equivalent to `[a:c:TAG]`.
-
-## LoRA Scheduling
-When using the lazy graph building nodes, LoRAs can be scheduled by referring to them in a scheduling expression, like so:
-
-`<lora:fulllora:1> [<lora:partialora:1>::0.5]`
-
-This will schedule `fulllora` for the entire duration of the prompt and `partiallora` until half of sampling is complete.
-
-You can refer to LoRAs by using the filename without extension and subdirectories will also be searched. For example, `<lora:cats:1>`. will match both `cats.safetensors` and `sd15/animals/cats.safetensors`. If there are multiple LoRAs with the same name, the first match will be loaded.
-
-Alternatively, the name can include the full directory path relative to ComfyUI's search paths, without extension: `<lora:XL/sdxllora:0.5>`. In this case, the *full* path must match.
-
-If no match is found, the node will try to replace spaces with underscores and search again. That is, `<lora:cats and dogs:1>` will find `cats_and_dogs.safetensors`. This helps with some autocompletion scripts that replace underscores with spaces.
-
-Finally, you can give the exact path (including the extension) as shown in `LoRALoader`.
-
-
-## Alternating
-
-Alternating syntax is `[a|b:pct_steps]`, causing the prompt to alternate every `pct_steps`. `pct_steps` defaults to 0.1 if not specified. You can also have more than two options.
-
-
-## Sequences
-
-The syntax `[SEQ:a:N1:b:N2:c:N3]` is shorthand for `[a:[b:[c::N3]:N2]:N1]` ie. it switches from `a` to `b` to `c` to nothing at the specified points in sequence.
-
-Might be useful with Jinja templating (see https://github.com/asagi4/comfyui-utility-nodes). For example:
-```
-[SEQ<% for x in steps(0.1, 0.9, 0.1) %>:<lora:test:<= sin(x*pi) + 0.1 =>>:<= x =><% endfor %>]
-```
-generates a LoRA schedule based on a sinewave
-
-# Basic prompt syntax

-This syntax is also available in outside scheduled with the `PCTextEncode` node, where applicable.

-
-### MASK, IMASK and AREA
-
-You can use `MASK(x1 x2, y1 y2, weight, op)` to specify a region mask for a prompt. The values are specified as a percentage with a float between `0` and `1`, or as absolute pixel values (these can't be mixed). `1` will be interpreted as a percentage instead of a pixel value.
-
-Multiple `MASK` or `IMASK` calls will be composited together using ComfyUI's `MaskComposite` node, using `op` as the `operation` parameter (defaulting to `multiply`).
-
-Similarly, you can use `AREA(x1 x2, y1 y2, weight)` to specify an area for the prompt (see ComfyUI's area composition examples). The area is calculated by ComfyUI relative to your latent size.
-
-### Custom masks: IMASK and `PCAddMaskToCLIP`
-
-You can attach custom masks to a `CLIP` with the `PC: Attach Mask` nodes and then refer to those masks in the prompt using `IMASK(index, weight, op)`. Indexing starts from zero, so 0 is the first attached mask etc. `PCSCheduleAddMasks` ignores empty inputs, so if you only add a mask to the `mask4` input, it will still have index 0.
-
-Applying the nodes multiple times *appends* masks rather than overriding existing ones, so if you need more than 4, you can just use it more than once.
-
-### Behaviour of masks
-If multiple `MASK`s are specified, they are combined together with ComfyUI's `MaskComposite` node, with `op` specifying the operation to use (default `multiply`). In this case, the combined mask weight can be set with `MASKW(weight)` (defaults to 1.0).
-
-Masks assume a size of `(512, 512)`, unless overridden with `PC: Configure PCTextEncode` and pixel values will be relative to that. ComfyUI will scale the mask to match the image resolution. You can change it manually by using `MASK_SIZE(width, height)` anywhere in the prompt,
-
-These are handled per `AND`-ed prompt, so in `prompt1 AND MASK(...) prompt2`, the mask will only affect prompt2.
-
-The default values are `MASK(0 1, 0 1, 1)` and you can omit unnecessary ones, that is, `MASK(0 0.5, 0.3)` is `MASK(0 0.5, 0.3 1, 1)`
-
-Note that because the default values are percentages, `MASK(0 256, 64 512)` is valid, but `MASK(0 200)` will raise an error.
-
-Masking does not affect LoRA scheduling unless you set unet weights to 0 for a LoRA.
-
-### FEATHER: Mask operations
-
-When you use `MASK` or `IMASK`, you can also call `FEATHER(left top right bottom)` to apply feathering using ComfyUI's `FeatherMask` node. The values are in pixels and default to `0`.
-
-If multiple masks are used, `FEATHER` is applied *before compositing* in the order they appear in the prompt, and any leftovers are applied to the combined mask. If you want to skip feathering a mask while compositing, just use `FEATHER()` with no arguments.
-
-For example:
-```
-MASK(1) MASK(2) MASK(3) FEATHER(1) FEATHER() FEATHER(3) weirdmask FEATHER(4)
-```
-
-gives you a mask that is a combination of 1, 2 and 3, where 1 and 3 are feathered before compositing and then `FEATHER(4)` is applied to the composite.
-
-The order of the `FEATHER` and `MASK` calls doesn't matter; you can have `FEATHER` before `MASK` or even interleave them.

+# Regional prompting
+
+This section documents the masking functionality of `PCTextEncode`
+
+See also [Attention Couple](/doc/attention_couple.md)
+
+Remember that when using the lazy nodes, prompt scheduling applies to masks as well, so you can change or enable/disable regional prompts at any point during sampling.
+
+## Behaviour
+
+For each prompt separated by `AND`, you can specify either latent masks or an area.
+
+- When masked, ComfyUI generates the model output using the **full latent** as the input, and then applies the mask to the output before adding it to your latent for the next step.
+- When an area is specified, ComfyUI generates a separate model output using the **part of the latent specified by the area** and then composites it into the full latent afterwards.
+- You can have *both* an AREA and a MASK specified, in which case the mask is applied to the latent specified by the AREA.
+
+For example, consider a 1024 by 1024 (width x height) generation:
+
+- `cat MASK(0 0.5, 0 1) AND dog MASK(0.5 1, 0 1)` generates two outputs at 1024x1024 for "dog" and "cat", then masks half of them off and adds the results together. The following step still see both the dog and the cat from the previous step, so they may blend slightly.
+
+- `cat AREA(0 0.5, 0 1) AND dog AREA(0.5 1, 0 1)` generates two completely separate outputs at **512**x1024 and then composites them together into the 1024x1024 latent. Because the areas do not overlap, the generation for `cat` will not see the output of `dog` and vice versa in subsequent steps as long as the area restriction is in effect.
+
+## MASK, IMASK and AREA
+
+You can use `MASK(x1 x2, y1 y2, weight, op)` to specify a region mask for a prompt. The values are specified as a percentage with a float between `0` and `1`, or as absolute pixel values (these can't be mixed). `1` will be interpreted as a percentage instead of a pixel value.
+
+Multiple `MASK` or `IMASK` calls will be composited together using ComfyUI's `MaskComposite` node, using `op` as the `operation` parameter (defaulting to `multiply`).
+
+Similarly, you can use `AREA(x1 x2, y1 y2, weight)` to specify an area for the prompt (see ComfyUI's area composition examples). The area is calculated by ComfyUI relative to your latent size.
+
+### Custom masks: IMASK and `PCAddMaskToCLIP`
+
+You can attach custom masks to a `CLIP` with the `PC: Attach Mask` nodes and then refer to those masks in the prompt using `IMASK(index, weight, op)`. Indexing starts from zero, so 0 is the first attached mask etc. `PCSCheduleAddMasks` ignores empty inputs, so if you only add a mask to the `mask4` input, it will still have index 0.
+
+Applying the nodes multiple times *appends* masks rather than overriding existing ones, so if you need more than 4, you can just use it more than once.
+
+### Behaviour of multiple masks
+If multiple `MASK`s are specified, they are combined together with ComfyUI's `MaskComposite` node, with `op` specifying the operation to use (default `multiply`). In this case, the combined mask weight can be set with `MASKW(weight)` (defaults to 1.0).
+
+Masks assume a size of `(512, 512)`, unless overridden with `PC: Configure PCTextEncode` and pixel values will be relative to that. ComfyUI will scale the mask to match the image resolution. You can change it manually by using `MASK_SIZE(width, height)` anywhere in the prompt,
+
+These are handled per `AND`-ed prompt, so in `prompt1 AND MASK(...) prompt2`, the mask will only affect prompt2.
+
+The default values are `MASK(0 1, 0 1, 1)` and you can omit unnecessary ones, that is, `MASK(0 0.5, 0.3)` is `MASK(0 0.5, 0.3 1, 1)`
+
+Note that because the default values are percentages, `MASK(0 256, 64 512)` is valid, but `MASK(0 200)` will raise an error.

+When you use `MASK` or `IMASK`, you can also call `FEATHER(left top right bottom)` to apply feathering using ComfyUI's `FeatherMask` node. The values are in pixels and default to `0`.
+
+If multiple masks are used, `FEATHER` is applied *before compositing* in the order they appear in the prompt, and any leftovers are applied to the combined mask. If you want to skip feathering a mask while compositing, just use `FEATHER()` with no arguments.
+
+For example:
+```
+MASK(1) MASK(2) MASK(3) FEATHER(1) FEATHER() FEATHER(3) weirdmask FEATHER(4)
+```
+
+gives you a mask that is a combination of 1, 2 and 3, where 1 and 3 are feathered before compositing and then `FEATHER(4)` is applied to the composite.
+
+The order of the `FEATHER` and `MASK` calls doesn't matter; you can have `FEATHER` before `MASK` or even interleave them.

+# Prompt Schedule Syntax
+
+> [!TIP]
+> If you're viewing this on GitHub, I recommend opening the outline by clicking the button in the top right corner of the text view (it is annoyingly easy to miss).
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> The syntax documented in this section is only available with the `PC: Schedule Prompt` and `PC: Schedule LoRAs` nodes and their advanced variants.
+
+Scheduling syntax is available with is similar to A1111, but only fractions are supported for steps. LoRAs are scheduled by including them in a scheduling expression.
+
+Besides the syntax documented below, the [basic syntax](/doc/basic.md) and [prompt macro](/doc/macros.md) features are also automatically available.
+
+```
+a [large::0.1] [cat|dog:0.05] [<lora:somelora:0.5:0.6>::0.5]
+[in a park:in space:0.4]
+```
+## Comments and escaping
+
+In schedules, any text on a line following a `#` is considered a comment and removed, including the `#` character.
+You can escape the following characters in places where they would otherwise conflict with syntax:
+
+- `#` with `\#`
+- `:` with `\:`
+- `\` with `\\`
+
+Escaping is only required if it would otherwise be considered syntax, that is `\o/` will be interpreted literally and the `\` does not need to be escaped, but in `[embedding:a:0.5]` you would need to escape the `:`.
+
+## Scheduled prompts
+
+There are two forms of scheduled prompts.
+
+### Basic scheduling expressions
+Basic expressions take the form `[before:after:X]` where `X` is the switch point, a decimal number between 0.0 and 1.0 inclusive, representing 0 to 100% of timesteps. Either prompt can also be empty.
+For example:
+```
+a [red:blue:0.5] cat
+```
+switches from `a red cat` to `a blue cat` at 0.5. `before` and `after` can be arbitrary prompts (`after` can also be empty), including other scheduling expressions, allowing nesting:
+```
+a [red:[blue::0.7]:0.5] cat
+```
+
+switches from `a red cat` to `a blue cat` at 0.5 and to `a cat` at 0.7
+
+For convenience `[cat:0.5]` is equivalent to `[:cat:0.5]` meaning it switches from empty to `cat` at 0.5.
+
+### Range expressions
+
+The most general form of a schedule is a range expression: For example, in `prompt [before:during:after:0.3,0.7]`, The prompt be `prompt before` until 0.3, `prompt during` until 0.7, and then `prompt after`. This form is equivalent to `prompt [before:[during:after:0.7]:0.3]`
+
+For convenience, `[during:0.1,0.4]` is equivalent to `[:during::0.1,0.4]` and `[during:after:0.1,0.4]` is equivalent to `[:during:after:0.1,0.4]`.
+
+`[before:during:after:0.1]` is the same as `[before:during:after:0.1,1.0]` which is same as `[before:during:0.1]`
+
+
+### Using step numbers with the Advanced nodes
+
+If you provide a non-zero value to `num_steps` to the `Advanced` versions of the scheduling nodes, you will be able to use step numbers in prompts.
+
+For now, a value between 0 and 1.0 will be interpreted as a percentage if it contains a ., and as an absolute step otherwise.
+
+This is just syntactic sugar. Behind the scenes, the values are converted to percentages and have normal ComfyUI scheduling behaviour.
+
+## Tag selection
+Using the `FilterSchedule` node, in addition to step percentages, you can use a *tag* to select part of an input:
+```
+a large [dog:cat<lora:catlora:0.5>:SECOND_PASS]
+```
+Set the `tags` parameter in the `FilterSchedule` node to filter the prompt. If the tag matches any tag `tags` (comma-separated), the second option is returned (`cat`, in this case, with the LoRA). Otherwise, the first option is chosen (`dog`, without LoRA).
+
+the values in `tags` are case-insensitive, but the tags in the input **must** be uppercase A-Z and underscores only, or they won't be recognized. That is, `[dog:cat:hr]` will not work.
+
+For example, a prompt
+```
+a [black:blue:X] [cat:dog:Y] [walking:running:Z] in space
+```
+with `tags` `x,z` would result in the prompt `a blue cat running in space`
+
+The three prompt form `[a:b:c:TAG]` is parsed, but ignores `b` and is equivalent to `[a:c:TAG]`.
+
+## LoRA Scheduling
+When using the lazy graph building nodes, LoRAs can be scheduled by referring to them in a scheduling expression, like so:
+
+`<lora:fulllora:1> [<lora:partialora:1>::0.5]`
+
+This will schedule `fulllora` for the entire duration of the prompt and `partiallora` until half of sampling is complete.
+
+You can refer to LoRAs by using the filename without extension and subdirectories will also be searched. For example, `<lora:cats:1>`. will match both `cats.safetensors` and `sd15/animals/cats.safetensors`. If there are multiple LoRAs with the same name, the first match will be loaded.
+
+Alternatively, the name can include the full directory path relative to ComfyUI's search paths, without extension: `<lora:XL/sdxllora:0.5>`. In this case, the *full* path must match.
+
+You can also give the exact path (including the extension) as shown in `LoRALoader`.
+
+If no match is found, the node will try to replace spaces with underscores and search again. That is, `<lora:cats and dogs:1>` will find `cats_and_dogs.safetensors`. This helps with some autocompletion scripts that replace underscores with spaces.
+
+Finally, if none of the above produce a match, the search term will be split by whitespace and files that contain all of the parts in any order will be considered. If this returns only a single match, it will be loaded. For example, consider LoRAs:
+
+- `xl/red_cats.safetensors`
+- `flux/blue_cats.safetensors`
+- `flux/red_cats.safetensors`
+
+Then `<lora:cats xl:1>` would match the red cats LoRA, but `cats flux` would be ambiguous and not match.
+
+## Alternating
+
+Alternating syntax is `[a|b:pct_steps]`, causing the prompt to alternate every `pct_steps`. `pct_steps` defaults to 0.1 if not specified. You can also have more than two options.
+
+
+## Sequences
+
+The syntax `[SEQ:a:N1:b:N2:c:N3]` is shorthand for `[a:[b:[c::N3]:N2]:N1]` ie. it switches from `a` to `b` to `c` to nothing at the specified points in sequence.
+
+Might be useful with Jinja templating (see https://github.com/asagi4/comfyui-utility-nodes). For example:
+```
+[SEQ<% for x in steps(0.1, 0.9, 0.1) %>:<lora:test:<= sin(x*pi) + 0.1 =>>:<= x =><% endfor %>]
+```
