"✂️ Inpaint Crop" is a node that crops an image before sampling. The context area can be specified via the mask, expand pixels and expand factor or via a separate (optional) mask.

"✂️ Inpaint Stitch" is a node that stitches the inpainted image back into the original image without altering unmasked areas.

Parameters

context_expand_pixels: how much to grow the context area (i.e. the area for the sampling) around the original mask, in pixels. This provides more context for the sampling.
context_expand_factor: how much to grow the context area (i.e. the area for the sampling) around the original mask, as a factor, e.g. 1.1 is grow 10% of the size of the mask.
invert_mask: Whether to fully invert the mask, that is, only keep what was marked, instead of removing what was marked.
fill_mask_holes: Whether to fully fill any holes (small or large) in the mask, that is, mark fully enclosed areas as part of the mask.
rescale_algorithm: Rescale algorithm to use. bislerp is for super high quality but very slow, recommended for stich. bicubic is high quality and faster, recommended for crop.
mode: Free size or Forced size.
- Free size uses internal_rescale_factor to optionally rescale the content before sampling and eventually scale back before stitching, and padding to align to standard sizes.
- Forced size uses force_size and upscales the content to take that size before sampling, then downscales before stitching back. Use forced size e.g. for SDXL.

Example: Simple free size inpaint

This example inpaints by sampling on a small section of the larger image. It runs ~20x faster than sampling on the whole image.

Download the following example workflow from here or drag and drop the screenshot into ComfyUI.

Example: Context mask

This example inpaints by taking more context from a wider area by using a context mask. It's still faster than sampling on the whole image but generates content with better context.

Example: Upscaled free size inpaint

This example inpaints by upscaling a small section of the larger image, sampling with increased details given the higher resolution, then re-stitching back.

Download the following example workflow from here or drag and drop the screenshot into ComfyUI.

Example: Upscaled forced size inpaint

This example inpaints by upscaling a small section of the larger image to exactly 512.

Installation Instructions

Install via ComfyUI-Manager or go to the custom_nodes/ directory and run $ git clone https://github.com/lquesada/ComfyUI-Inpaint-CropAndStitch.git

Best Practices

Use an inpainting model e.g. lazymixRealAmateur_v40Inpainting.

Use VAE Encode (for Inpainting) with grow_mask_by 12.

If you want to inpaint fast with SD 1.5, use free size with padding 32. You may increase rescale_factor to get more details.

If you want to inpaint with SDXL, use forced size = 1024.

Changelog

Upcoming!

Some JavaScript to hide unused fields depending on the selected mode.

2024-05-14

Enabled selecting rescaling algorithm and made bicubic the default for crop, which significantly speeds up the process.

2024-05-13

Switched from adjust_to_preferred_sizes to modes: free size and forced size. Forced scales the section rather than growing the context area to fit preferred_sizes, to be used to e.g. force 1024x1024 for inpainting.
Enable internal_upscale_factor to be lower than 1 (that is, downscale), which can be used to avoid the double head issue in some models.
Added padding on the croppedp image to avoid artifacts when the cropped image is not multiple of (default) 32

2024-05-12

Add internal_upscale_factor to upscale the image before sampling and then downsizes to stitch it back.
