The Floating Prompt Area

Positioned at the bottom-center of the Fater Editor workspace, the Floating Prompt Area is your primary command center for interacting with Fater's AI generation capabilities across all Editor Modes (Image, Asset, Video).

Components of the Floating Prompt Area

(Placeholder: Add screenshot)

1. Generation Task List (Top Area):

   • Displays thumbnail previews of your recent AI generation results (images, asset previews, video previews) for the current project.

   • Organized by generation batches.

   • Allows you to click thumbnails to select and view/activate specific results.

   • (See Working with Generations for details).

2. Main Input Bar (Bottom Area): This bar contains several controls:

   • Voice Input Button (AudioLines icon): Press and hold this button to dictate your prompt using your microphone's speech recognition. Release to stop recording. (Disabled on Firefox)

   • Text Prompt Input Field: The main, wide text area where you type your descriptive prompts for the AI. This is where you tell the AI what you want it to generate or modify.

   • Generate Button (Sparkles icon ✨): Click this button to initiate the AI generation process using the currently selected model, parameters, input images/layers/masks, and the text prompt you've entered.

     • The button's appearance changes to indicate loading ("Generating...") while the generation required files and data are being uploaded.

     • It may be disabled or hidden if required inputs are missing (e.g., needing a base image in certain Image Editor workflows).

How to Use It

1. Select Your Mode & Model: Ensure you are in the correct Editor Mode (Image, Asset, Video) and have selected the desired AI model and configured its parameters in the Left Sidebar.

2. Prepare Inputs: Make sure any required inputs are ready (e.g., source images uploaded in the Left Sidebar for Asset/Video modes, or layers and masks prepared on the canvas for Image Editor mode).

3. Enter Your Prompt: Type a clear, descriptive text prompt in the input field, or use the Voice Input button to dictate it.

4. Click Generate: Press the Generate button (✨) to start the AI task.

5. Monitor Results: Observe the Generation Task List above the input bar for thumbnails of your results as they complete.

The Floating Prompt Area provides a consistent interface for triggering AI actions across Fater's different creative modes.
