Ideogram 4.5 is built for text: posters, labels, promo tiles and other designs where every word must be right. Its edits change only what you ask for, so you can edit the same image many times without it drifting.

## When to use it

- Designs with a headline, a subline and a button.
- Changing the text on a label or sign while keeping everything else.
- Keep strings short. Long lines in a narrow space can wrap or drop punctuation.

## How to prompt it

- Lead with what the image is for and its format, then the subject, the setting, where things sit and the light.
- Put every word that must appear in double quotes. Give each line its size, style and place, in reading order.
- Plan the empty space for copy, for example "the top 40% is a plain warm-white wall".
- Limit the colours with hex codes: "strictly limited to this palette: #2F4F3A forest green, ...".
- To edit, image 1 is the image you're changing. End with what stays: "Keep the bottle, the lighting and the background of image 1 unchanged."
- It may add copy you didn't ask for. Say "only this text" when that matters.

## Examples

### Edit a label

An edit: only the label text changes.

Input: product photo: ![An amber glass serum bottle with a black dropper and a cream label reading SERUM 01, on a light grey background](https://sloosh.ai/docs/in-bottle.webp)

->

Result: ![The same amber bottle, now with a label reading NIGHT REPAIR](https://sloosh.ai/docs/m-ideogram-4-5.webp)

_4:5, 2K, quality high, Enhance off._

**Prompt**

```text
Change the label text in image 1 from "SERUM 01" to "NIGHT REPAIR" in the same typeface, size and colour. Keep the bottle, the dropper, the lighting and the background of image 1 unchanged.
```

### Design with text

Text only: a promo tile with a headline, a subline, a button and a fixed palette.

![A sage green promo tile with a monstera in a cream pot, the headline NEW LEAVES, Spring collection and a Shop now button](https://sloosh.ai/docs/m-ideogram-4-5-2.webp)

_1:1, 2K, quality high, Enhance off._

**Prompt**

Square promo tile for an online plant shop on a soft sage green background: a potted monstera in a speckled cream ceramic pot on the right, and on the left the headline "NEW LEAVES" in huge bold rounded sans-serif capitals in deep forest green, "Spring collection" below it in a smaller medium weight, and a cream rounded button reading "Shop now". Flat, clean, strictly limited to this palette: #2F4F3A forest green, #A8BFA3 sage, #F4EFE4 cream.

## Frequently asked questions

### What is Ideogram 4.5 best for?

Ideogram 4.5 is best for designs where every word must be right: posters, labels, promo tiles and banners with a headline, a subline and a button. It is also good at changing the text on a label or sign while keeping everything else in the image the same.

### How do I change the text on a product label with Ideogram 4.5?

Add the photo as image 1 and write: "Change the label text in image 1 from 'SERUM 01' to 'NIGHT REPAIR' in the same typeface, size and colour." End with a keep clause, such as "Keep the bottle, the dropper, the lighting and the background of image 1 unchanged."

### Why does Ideogram 4.5 add text I didn't ask for?

Ideogram 4.5 sometimes adds copy nobody requested, such as an extra heading or a "NEW" burst. Say "only this text" in the prompt when that matters, and keep each string short: long lines in a narrow space can wrap or drop punctuation.

### How do I keep Ideogram 4.5 to my brand colours?

List the hex codes with plain colour names after the words "strictly limited to this palette", for example "#2F4F3A forest green, #A8BFA3 sage, #F4EFE4 cream". That is how the Ideogram 4.5 promo tile example on this page sets its palette.

### How many reference images can Ideogram 4.5 use in Sloosh?

Ideogram 4.5 takes up to 5 images in Sloosh: the image you are editing as image 1, plus up to 4 references as images 2 to 5. Say what to take from each, such as "the armchair from image 2", then end with what stays unchanged in image 1.
