v2.2.0-dev.1 (Inference UI) (Patreon)

o/ Thanks for everyone's support so far. This is an early preview from the Inference UI feature branch - a native generation interface powered by any ComfyUI backend. Currently we've implemented a fixed Text-to-Image workflow, but working on adding more project types like Image-to-Image and SDXL one pass generation with detailer. Most of the work was getting the framework in place, and future feature additions should be much faster.

Eventually you will also be able to load a custom ComfyUI workflow, define what nodes you want to be editable, and get appropriate interface controls based on that.

To get started, install a ComfyUI package and launch it (add the `--preview-method auto` launch argument for live previews), then head to the Inference page and click connect:

Current Features

- Text to image project type

  - Hires fix

- Prompt syntax highlighting with a custom syntax parser

- Project state save / load to ".smproj" file (using the top right menu)

- Performant, event based generation and cancel that should be near instantaneous

- Rearrangeable dock panels with float support (currently you have to drag a panel until the dock guide shows up but not with an active highlight, then release. We'll add a right click menu for floating soon)

- Image viewer can right click to copy

- Batch generation creates an extra grid image

Todo

- Dock layout currently is not saved, working on implementing this
