This release focuses on internal improvements with a number of enhancements and fixes.

The biggest enhancement is support for CogView4, a permissively-licensed model that is fairly close to FLUX in terms of quality.

🚨 Achtung! 🚨

There are important installation notes to be aware of in this release, which includes major updates to Invoke's core components.

  1. You must use the latest installer/launcher (v1.5.0). If you’re using an older launcher version, the update may fail.

    To fix this, download the latest installer/launcher from https://invoke.com/downloads.

  2. If the installation fails, use repair mode to fix it.

    The installation may fail due to Python environment conflicts with log messages like those in this screenshot.

    To fix this, retry the installation with repair mode enabled, which will reinstall the bundled Python and resolve most installation issues.

    Enable repair mode by ticking this checkbox on the Review step of the install, then click Install.

  3. Form Builder reset on first launch.

    When you start Invoke for the first time after updating to v5.10.0, your Form Builder will be reset, losing any unsaved changes.

    Before updating, save your current workflow. After updating, re-load it manually.

Python 3.12 & PyTorch 2.6.0 support

Invoke now supports Python 3.12 and PyTorch 2.6.0. Many major dependencies have also be bumped to their latest version.

Changes

Enhancements

  • Support for CogView4 in Canvas and Workflows. Like FLUX, it works best with detailed, narrative prompts. You can download the model from the Starter Models tab in the Model Manager. It's pretty chunky at ~30GB overall, with similar hardware requirements to FLUX.
  • Save Canvas/Bbox to Gallery buttons now save basic metadata with the image (prompts, model, seed).
  • Models now have their file sizes recorded and displayed in the Model Manager. Thanks @keturn!
  • New capabilities for FLUX Redux to control how much influences the generation. On Canvas, this is controlled by the new Image Influence setting for both Global and Regional Reference Images. There are more controls in Workflows. Thanks @skunkworxdark!
  • Added nodes to convert metadata into collection types. Thanks @skunkworxdark!
  • Improved undo/redo on Workflows.
  • Updated docs. Thanks @chantellmocha!
  • Updated translations. Thanks @rikublock @Harvester62 @Linos1391 @RyoK0220!

Fixes

  • Fixed error when loading workflows that has invalid edges. This can occur if an installation is missing a custom node.
  • When left/right arrow keys are pressed while focused on a tab UI element, do not switch between images.
  • Restored missing "Using torch device" message that should display on startup.
  • ONNX models (e.g. DW OpenPose) now have their sizes calculated correctly. This fixes an issue where these models didn't work fully with the model manager.
  • Fixed issue where the Canvas Color Picker didn't grab alpha values correctly.
  • Fixed Canvas layer drop indicator line color (was bright red).
  • Send to Canvas image actions now work when Canvas is uninitialized. For example, if the UI loads on the Workflows tab and the user has not yet clicked the Canvas tab, the Canvas will not be initialized.
  • Increased padding when fitting layers to canvas to prevent the floating tool panel and other buttons from covering up the edges of the layers.
  • Fixed issue where, after a Canvas reset, if no prompt is entered, generating will re-use the prompt that was last used before the reset.
  • Fixed issue where some network queries weren't reset correctly. This could have caused a minor memory leak.

Internal

  • Support for python 3.12. This necessitates the use of repair mode during installation, as described in the 🚨 callout above.
  • Bump many dependencies to latest, including torch.
  • Remove many unused dependencies.
  • Remove legacy scripts from the codebase.
  • Ported LoRA model configs to the new classification API. This is an internal change.
  • Merged workflow Form Builder and Node Editor state and logic. Undo/redo on the Workflows tab now works for both Node Editor and the Form Builder, and the way actions are grouped in the undo/redo history is improved. This causes the loss of Form Builder state on first run, as described in the 🚨 callout above. Unfortunately, there's no way to prevent this data loss without significant effort.

Installing and Updating

The new 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.
