the TE (mistral) and "prompt enhancer" (gemma3 if you even use it) are fine, the issue is the image model (ernie) doesnt have enough knowledge of say styles/things (probably because they spent so much training the text/multilanguage aspect). so while for certain things it may work well enough (especially text), if you throw a lot of things it has no idea about even if the TE/PE do, it's pointless
i'd say chroma (and more recent XL finetunes) > zit/f2.klein > flux in terms of local "knowledge" for image models. ernie would sit between zit/flux on that

Go to the templates and click in image, there are image edit templates. Use one which works for you.
