Generative Fill, Remove and Expand now native in GIMP 3, running on your own ComfyUI and local models

The thing I missed most after switching from Photoshop to GIMP 3 was Generative Fill and Adobe's AI editing tools.

Key points

  • So I wrote a free plugin that adds them, running on your own ComfyUI:
  • Generative Fill: your selection is the inpainting mask, pick from up to 8 variations
  • Generative Expand: outpaint any side or pick a ratio
  • It ships with a download manager and a few defaults to get you started: DreamShaper 8 Inpainting for fast fill, RealVisXL V5 with the Fooocus patch for quality, and LaMa for removal.
