# RefControl Flux Kontext – Reference Canny LoRA
## 📝 Short description
A LoRA for **Flux Kontext Dev** that fuses a **reference image** (left) with a **canny edge map** (right).
It preserves **identity and style** from the reference while following the **edges and outlines** from the control.
**Trigger word:** `refcontrolcanny`

## 📖 Extended description
This LoRA was primarily trained on **humans and characters**, but it works with objects and scenes as well.
The main purpose is to **preserve identity** — facial features, clothing, style — from the **reference image**, while using the **canny edge map** to define contours, composition, and layout.
---
## ⚙️ How to use
1. Concatenate two images side by side:
- **Left:** reference image (person, character, or object).
- **Right:** canny edges (line structure).
2. Add the trigger word `refcontrolcanny` in your prompt.
3. Adjust LoRA weight (recommended **0.8–1.0**) depending on how strictly you want to follow edges.
### ✅ Example prompt
refcontrolcanny, change canny edges to photo with reference from left
---
## 🎯 What it does
- Preserves **style and identity** of the reference.
- Uses **canny edges** to control structure, outline, and composition.
- Produces consistent results across different poses and layouts.
---
## ⚡ Tips
- Works best if the canny map captures **clean edges** with minimal noise.
---
## 📌 Use cases
- Character consistency in illustrations and comics.
- Stylized redraws of objects with sharp outlines.
- Scene composition based on silhouettes.
- Rapid prototyping of layouts and storyboards.
