v5.4.1

This release includes support for SD 3.5, plus a number of fixes and improvements.

We pulled v5.4.0 due to issues with model installation and loading. This release (v5.4.1) resolves those issues and includes all changes from v5.4.0.

Enhancements

• Support for SD 3.5 Medium and Large. You can download them in the starter models.
• Moved Denoising Strength slider to top of Layers panel with updated UI and info popover.
• Update viewer styling to have a menubar-ish header. Also used for image comparison.
• Layer preview tooltip with larger sized preview.
• Empty state for Control Layers, guiding user to upload an image, drag an image from gallery or start drawing.
• "Simple" mode for control layers filtering, triggered when you select a control model. This automatically selects and processes the default filter for that model, if a default exists. If the user clicks Advanced, they get the full filter settings UI. Control Layers now start with no model selected, implicitly directing users into this flow.
• Updated default control weight to 0.75 and end step % to 0.75. Updated label for the Balanced control mode, indicating it is the recommended setting.
• The FLUX Denoise node now has a flag to skip adding noise to input latents. This is useful for switching models mid-generation and other fancy denoising techniques. Thanks @JPPhoto!
• Migrated the UI's drag-and-drop functionality to a new library, improving the overall performance of dnd. It also allows us to support external dnd. For example, dragging images from the OS directly into the canvas is now possible (not implemented in this release).
• Canvas layers may be sorted via drag-and-drop.
• When graph building fails, you will see an error toast. Previously, it only logged a message to the browser's JS console.
• Updated model warnings on Upscaling tab to not be misleading.
• More FLUX LoRA format support.
• Show alert over canvas/viewer with invocation progress event messages.
• Tweak gallery image selection styles to better differentiate between hovered and selected.
• Output Only Masked Regions renamed to Output only Generated Regions and now enabled by default.

Fixes

• Canvas progress images do not clear when canceling generation after at least one image has been staged.
• Tooltips on boards list stay open when scrolling, potentially causing the whole app to scroll.
• Saving canvas to gallery does not create a new image in gallery.
• Applying a filter could erase or otherwise change a layer's data unexpectedly, causing a range of user-facing generation issues.
• Unable to queue graphs with the Segment Anything node when its inputs were provided by connection.
• Unable to load a workflow from file when using the three-dots menu.
• pip downloads torch twice. This didn't cause any application issues - just a waste of time and bandwidth. We pinned torch to <2.5.0 to prevent pip's dependency resolver from getting confused.
• mediapipe install issue on Windows, related to its latest release. We pinned mediapipe to a known working version.
• CLIP Vision error when using FLUX IP Adapter.
• Fit bbox to layers math could result in a slightly-too-large bbox.
• Outdated link to FLUX IP Adapter. Thanks @RadTechDad!
• Force a compatible precision for FLUX VAEs to prevent black outputs.

Translations

We have had some issues communicating with "walk-in" translators on Weblate, resulting in translations being changed when they are already correct. To mitigate this, we are trying a more restricted Weblate translation setup. Access to contribute translations must be granted by @Harvester62. Please @ them in the #translators channel on discord to get access.

We apologize for any inconvenience this change may cause. Thanks to all our translators for their continued efforts!
