The *Create & edit* advanced workflow in Marble gives you precise control over your world generation through a multi-stage process. Instead of jumping directly to a final world, you can refine and edit at each stage to ensure the perfect result.

## Multi-stage creation process

Start by dragging in your prompt into the omnibox under the <Icon icon="image" /> 2D input mode. Check the "use advanced editing" box, and click on <Icon icon="brush" /> Create to jump into the *Create & edit* workflow.

The *Create & edit* workflow breaks world creation into distinct stages, each offering opportunities for refinement:

### Stage 1: Pano

* **Purpose**: Establish the initial panoramic representation of your world
* **Input**: Your original prompt (text, image, video, etc.)
* **Output**: A 360° panoramic view that captures the spatial layout and visual elements

### Stage 2: Panorama edit (optional)

* **Purpose**: Refine specific areas of the panorama before world generation
* **Process**:
  * Directly describe changes in the prompt box, and <Icon icon="banana" /> Apply edit for global changes, or
  * Select edit area in the panoramic view and describe desired changes in the prompt box and <Icon icon="banana" /> Apply edit for targeted local changes, or
  * <Icon icon="image-plus" /> Add images to add image references for the edit, and describe desired changes in the prompt box and <Icon icon="banana" /> Apply edit for adding ingredients into the panorama.
* **Use cases**:
  * Adjust lighting or colors
  * Modify objects
  * Add or remove details
  * Fix any issues with the initial panoramic generation
* **Tips**:
  * You can <Icon icon="drafting-compass" /> Queue Draft creation in the background by clicking on each panorama thumbnail. You will get a notification when it finishes, and you can find the results in your "Worlds" tab from the side-nav.

### Stage 3: Draft

* **Purpose**: Generate a quick 3D preview to evaluate spatial structure
* **Output**: A lightweight 3D world for rapid assessment
* **Benefits**: Preview the 3D structure and identify any needed changes before full processing. If any details stand out, you can further edit the panorama to change it.

### Stage 4: World generation

* **Purpose**: Create the final high-quality 3D world
* **Process**: Full processing of the panorama into a complete 3D environment
* **Output**: Complete navigable 3D world ready for exploration and export
* **Tips**:
  * Toggle "Public mode" to change if generated world will be visible from public gallery.

## Additional tips

* Jump back into the *Create & edit* flow with <Icon icon="brush" /> Continue creating.

## When to use *Create & edit*

The *Create & edit* workflow is ideal when you need:

* **Precision control**: Fine-tune specific elements before committing to full world generation
* **Professional projects**: Commercial work requiring precise results and iterative feedback
* **Learning and experimentation**: Understanding how changes at different stages affect the final output

The *Create & edit* workflow transforms world generation from a single-step process into a refined, iterative experience that puts creative control in your hands.
