# Variation Strength

Image Variation Strength is only used when doing img2img or inpainting. 0.1-0.2 only does a minor change to your image, can be useful to "patch up" assembled images. 0.5 changes most of the image but you can still recognize the starting image. 0.8 and above makes the starting image disappear.&#x20;

In this example you can see how more 'noise' gets added onto the image, eventually removing almost all of the original completely.\
This noise is what allows for more drastic variations.

As you increase Strength you get more noise added to your image.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://artroomai.gitbook.io/tutorials/resources/settings-tutorials/variation-strength.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
