Summary

This minor release introduces several quality-of-life improvements, including UI enhancements like error highlighting and new metadata recall features. It also addresses VRAM usage, model installation paths, and state persistence strategy.

Migration Steps

  1. Users on older GPUs (20xx and 10xx series) may run into issues with installing/updating due to recent 'torch' updates. Users have found success manually downgrading 'torch'. Consult Discord for help if needed.
  2. If using the Invoke Launcher is recommended for installation and updates.

✨ New Features

  • Canvas Bbox visibility can be toggled with 'shift+o'.
  • Nodes with execution errors are highlighted red.
  • Support recall of CLIP Skip metadata.
  • Prompt and seed metadata may now be recalled on the Upscaling tab.
  • Confirmation dialog added before downloading potentially very large starter model bundles.
  • Merged layers are inserted in the right spot in the layers panel.
  • Added button to image context menu and viewer toolbar to locate an image in the gallery (selecting the image's board and scrolling to it).
  • Support FLUX PEFT LoRAs with 'base_model.model' key prefix.

🐛 Bug Fixes

  • Fixed some issues with model install paths.
  • State persistence strategy tweaked: now debounced to 300ms instead of throttled to 2000ms, reducing stutters during canvas panning.
  • Prevented a field from being added to Workflow Builder forms multiple times.
  • Improved VAE encode VRAM usage.
  • Fixed minor bug when concatenating Kontext ref images in latent space that could result in some images not being "seen".
  • Fit to Bbox functionality now correctly positions the layer when the bbox is not aligned to the 64px grid.
  • Allowed use of mouse in node title editable inputs.
  • Fixed AMD docker image build issue related to disk space.
  • Fixed issue where model path suffix was added even when the path pointed to a directory instead of a file.
  • Fixed issue where the system would fail if a model already existed at the target installation path instead of finding an unused new path.
  • Fixed UI issue where board totals were not updated when generation completed.
  • Fixed UI issue where 'fit to bbox' resulted in incorrect positioning when the bbox was not 64px grid aligned.
  • Fixed UI issue preventing node drag when editing the title.
