Context
The Pony Character Prompt Picker is designed to enhance the ComfyUI workflow by allowing users to leverage pre-defined character prompts stored in Excel files. Its primary purpose is to simplify and automate the generation of pony character prompts, making it easier for creators to produce varied and unique character ideas.
Key Features & Benefits
This tool allows users to read data directly from Excel files, which can be particularly beneficial for those who have extensive lists of character prompts. By enabling manual selection of the sheet and column, users gain precise control over the data they want to utilize, while the random selection feature ensures a diverse output, fostering creativity in character design.
Advanced Functionalities
The node includes the ability to specify a starting row for the random selection, which allows users to exclude header information or any irrelevant data that may be present in the first rows of the Excel sheet. This feature enhances usability by ensuring that only pertinent data is considered for character prompt generation.
Practical Benefits
