I am only just beginning with SD. It's amazing what you can do with it. The prompting possibilities are a bit limited, which is why I appreciate your extension a lot. I was simply looking for a way to group together a lot of keywords that can describe a kind of person, situation, environment etc etc, so I can mix them together as required without copy-pasting like crazy. Styles were an option, but you can't manage them well in large numbers, especially when the order is essential, like when you are working with the Regional Prompter extension and have BREAKS in your prompt, which also have to go to strategical positions in your styles then... So, Dynamic Prompts seemed like the perfect solution. Instead of using styles, I can just use wildcards and do so much more on top with randomization options etc. However, there is no way to deal with positive and negative prompts at the same time. They are always completely seperated and therefore can't be coupled and coordinated at all. That's really a bit of a bummer, because you can achieve so much using negative prompts. You can always emphasize what you are going for by excluding the opposite, no matter whether it's about people's appearances, environments, moods etc. If you want "happy", excluding "sad" can work miracles. If you want to exclude Pluto from the planets, how will you achieve that with positive keywords?... And so I had this very simple idea that has a lot of potential...
Getting to the point:
A seperate prompt for positive and negative keywords has no advantages and only makes all coordination of positive and negative impossible, which can now only be done with styles, but they are also rather limited in their usability. It would make a lot of sense to write all negative prompting into the positive prompt marked by bracket-like symbols (since all brackets are already in use), like the banana in "garden party, food, fruit salad, !banana, ! lawn, bushes". Because how else can you make sure there's no banana in your fruit salad?! This would probably be more flexible than a keyword-prefix (NOT_banana) for example. It could encapsulate all weighting functions, random selections etc as well. During "compiling" the negative sections would be treated just like everything else, as if the "!"s weren't there to begin with. Once all the text has been processed and evaluated to its usable state, cut out all the text between any 2 "!"s and move it to the negative prompt, which should initially be empty. Also copy all BREAKs (and other "commands", if there are any - I'm kinda new to this...) into the negative prompt, so you don't have to write every BREAK twice, like "BREAK !BREAK!" (although that would also be a possibility). If you would add this very simple feature, it would hardly leave anything to be desired and make prompting so much more powerful, finally removing that barrier between positive and negative keywords!
