v5.2.0rc2 Pre-release
Pre-release

This release includes a number of enhancements and fixes. Standouts include:

  • Support for FLUX ControlNets.
  • Improved UX for common img2img flows in Canvas.
  • Boards may be sorted by name or date.
  • Starter model bundles in Model Manager.
  • Support for bulk image uploads.

We've also added a fix for Apple Silicon users for the mushy noise issue and updated the installer to skip xformers for GPUs where it causes a performance hit.

Be sure to review the v5 release notes if you haven't already upgraded to v5.

FLUX ControlNets

We now support both XLabs and InstantX ControlNets for FLUX. We've found the Union Pro model substantially outperforms the other models and added it to the starter models. Other models work, but outputs are not as good.

You can use FLUX ControlNets in both Workflows and the Linear UI. We will be adding a union mode control to the Linear UI in a a future release. You can select the union mode in Workflows today.

Canvas img2img Flow

We've made a number of changes to support the common img2img flow in the Canvas:

  • Transform now supports 3 modes:
    • fill (old behaviour): The layer is stretched to fit the generation bbox exactly. Its aspect ratio is not maintained.
    • contain (new default): The layer is stretched to fit the generation bbox, retaining its aspect ratio.
    • cover: The layer is scaled up so that its smallest dimension fits the bbox exactly, retaining its aspect ratio.
  • Add a layer context menu item to fit the layer to the bbox using the contain mode.
  • Update theNew Canvas from Image image context menu item to streamline the img2img flow. It now resizes the bbox to match the image's aspect ratio, respecting the currently-selected models' optimal size. The image will fit exactly in the box. You can click this and then immediately Invoke to do img2img.

Installer Updates

The performance of torch-sdp attention is substantially faster than xformers on 30xx and 40xx series GPUs. We've made two changes to ensure you generate with the best settings:

  • Add an installer option for 30xx & 40xx series GPUs, which does not install xformers.
  • When the attention type is set to auto (the default), and you do have xformers installed, we choose the best option of torch-sdp and xformers, based on your GPU.

Apple Silicon Fix

The mushy noise issue on Apple Silicon is related to sliced attention. We've temporarily forced all MPS devices to use torch-sdp. Memory usage is a bit higher, but you won't get mushy noise (unless, of course, you prompt for it 😅).

This appears to be a torch bug, and we'll revert this change once it is resolved.

All Changes

Changes since v5.2.0rc2 are marked with 🆕.

Enhancements

  • Support for FLUX ControlNets.
  • Improved UX for common img2img flows in Canvas.
  • Installer option to select best packages based on GPU model, and internal logic to select the best attention type based on GPU model.

  • 🆕 The Layers and Gallery tabs now remember which one you last selected.
  • 🆕 Added an indicator to the Layers and Gallery tabs when dragging an image to indicate you that you can hover over the tabs to change them.
  • 🆕 Updated translations. French is now 100%! Thanks gallegonovato, @Harvester62, @Ery4z!

Fixes

  • Workaround for Apple Silicon SDXL noisy mush issue.
  • Fixed misc UI jank in workflow list menu UI.
  • Fixed longstanding issue where workflows were marked as unsaved immediately after loading.

v5.1.1

This release fixes a number of issues and updates the workflows list to function like the style presets list.

❗ We are investigating an issue with Apple Silicon devices and SDXL. Users with Apple Silicon devices may wish to hold off on updating until we resolve this. See the Known Issues section below for more information and a workaround.

Be sure to review the v5 release notes if you haven't already upgraded to v5.

Enhancements

  • New workflow list UI. Thanks @maryhipp!
  • Added explanatory tooltips to images and assets tabs in gallery. Thanks @maryhipp!
  • Added prompt template message to first-run blurb. Thanks @maryhipp!
  • Add button to rename board (in addition to double-click). Thanks @maryhipp!
  • Updated translations. Thanks @Harvester62 @Ery4z!
  • Updated example config file comment to prevent footguns.

Fixes

  • Updates to get FLUX working on MPS on torch 2.5.0 / nightlies. Thanks @Vargol!
  • Fixed incorrect events being tracked for some buttons. Notably, this prevents accidental deletion of layers when the Canvas is busy.
  • Fixed UI jank with Canvas number input components.
  • Fixed issue where invalid edges could be pasted.
  • Fixed issue preventing touch and Apple Pencil from being able to interact with the Canvas.

Docs

Known Issues

Apple Silicon devices will output mushy noise on SDXL unless Regional Guidance or an IP Adapter is used.

The issue appears to be related to us bumping torch to v2.4.1, which was needed for GGUF FLUX support. The SDXL generation code wasn't changed in this release. We are investigating the issue.

As a workaround, users can set their attention type to torch-sdp in their invoke.yaml configuration file:

attention_type: torch-sdp

This will result in some increased memory utilization, but allow for generations to proceed as normal.
