invoke-ai/InvokeAI v6.0.0rc4

on GitHub

Invoke's next major release brings many new features plus an improved UI and user experience.

Your feedback is appreciated for this v6.0.0rc4 release candidate.

Core UI Enhancements

• Launchpads: Guided, intuitive interfaces for getting started using Invoke. Each tab has a dedicated launchpad to help you get started.
• New Generate tab for simple Text-to-Image generation, without the need to learn the canvas.
• Updated layout including tabbed Image Viewer.
• Gallery now shows all images at once in a single grid - no pagination.

Enhanced Canvas Experience

• Composition guides (i.e Rule of Thirds) on the bounding box.
• New "Edit" button in image viewer, creating a new canvas with the selected image.
• Toggle all non-Raster layers on/off with Shift + H.
• Updated and intuitive reference image management, now in the left-hand settings panel.
• Improved staging toolbar and navigation.
• Export Canvas to PSD (Photoshop) format.

Other Features and Improvements

• FLUX Kontext Support on Generate, Canvas and Workflows tabs.
• OMI LoRA Support and additional AI Toolkit LoRA support for FLUX.
• Prompt Expansion (Pro Only). Secure, AI-powered prompt enhancement and image-to-prompt conversion.
• Countless bug fixes, enhancements and performance improvements.

Installing and Updating

The Invoke Launcher is the recommended way to install, update and run Invoke. It takes care of a lot of details for you - like installing the right version of python - and runs Invoke as a desktop application.

Follow the Quick Start guide to get started with the launcher.

If you don't want to use the launcher, or need a headless install, you can follow the manual install guide.
