- [?] Optimization


## Have you discussed this change with the InvokeAI team?
- [x] No

     
## Description

- Fixed filter type select using `images` instead of `all` -- Probably
some merge conflict.
- Added loading state for model lists. Handy when the model list takes
longer than a second for any reason to fetch. Better to show this than
an empty screen.
- Refactored the render model list function so we modify the display
component in one area rather than have repeated code.

### Other Issues

- The list can get a bit laggy on initial load when you have a hundreds
of models / loras. This needs to be fixed. Will make another PR for
this.

+Copyright (c) 2023 Stability AI
+CreativeML Open RAIL++-M License dated July 26, 2023
+
+Section I: PREAMBLE
+
+Multimodal generative models are being widely adopted and used, and
+have the potential to transform the way artists, among other
+individuals, conceive and benefit from AI or ML technologies as a tool
+for content creation.
+
+Notwithstanding the current and potential benefits that these
+artifacts can bring to society at large, there are also concerns about
+potential misuses of them, either due to their technical limitations
+or ethical considerations.
+
+In short, this license strives for both the open and responsible
+downstream use of the accompanying model. When it comes to the open
+character, we took inspiration from open source permissive licenses
+regarding the grant of IP rights. Referring to the downstream
+responsible use, we added use-based restrictions not permitting the
+use of the model in very specific scenarios, in order for the licensor
+to be able to enforce the license in case potential misuses of the
+Model may occur. At the same time, we strive to promote open and
+responsible research on generative models for art and content
+generation.
+
+Even though downstream derivative versions of the model could be
+released under different licensing terms, the latter will always have
+to include - at minimum - the same use-based restrictions as the ones
+in the original license (this license). We believe in the intersection
+between open and responsible AI development; thus, this agreement aims
+to strike a balance between both in order to enable responsible
+open-science in the field of AI.
+
+This CreativeML Open RAIL++-M License governs the use of the model
+(and its derivatives) and is informed by the model card associated
+with the model.
+
+NOW THEREFORE, You and Licensor agree as follows:
+
+Definitions
+
+"License" means the terms and conditions for use, reproduction, and
+Distribution as defined in this document.
+
+"Data" means a collection of information and/or content extracted from
+the dataset used with the Model, including to train, pretrain, or
+otherwise evaluate the Model. The Data is not licensed under this
+License.
+
+"Output" means the results of operating a Model as embodied in
+informational content resulting therefrom.
+
+"Model" means any accompanying machine-learning based assemblies
+(including checkpoints), consisting of learnt weights, parameters
+(including optimizer states), corresponding to the model architecture
+as embodied in the Complementary Material, that have been trained or
+tuned, in whole or in part on the Data, using the Complementary
+Material.
+
+"Derivatives of the Model" means all modifications to the Model, works
+based on the Model, or any other model which is created or initialized
+by transfer of patterns of the weights, parameters, activations or
+output of the Model, to the other model, in order to cause the other
+model to perform similarly to the Model, including - but not limited
+to - distillation methods entailing the use of intermediate data
+representations or methods based on the generation of synthetic data
+by the Model for training the other model.
+
+"Complementary Material" means the accompanying source code and
+scripts used to define, run, load, benchmark or evaluate the Model,
+and used to prepare data for training or evaluation, if any. This
+includes any accompanying documentation, tutorials, examples, etc, if
+any.
+
+"Distribution" means any transmission, reproduction, publication or
+other sharing of the Model or Derivatives of the Model to a third
+party, including providing the Model as a hosted service made
+available by electronic or other remote means - e.g. API-based or web
+access.
+
+"Licensor" means the copyright owner or entity authorized by the
+copyright owner that is granting the License, including the persons or
+entities that may have rights in the Model and/or distributing the
+Model.
+
+"You" (or "Your") means an individual or Legal Entity exercising
+permissions granted by this License and/or making use of the Model for
+whichever purpose and in any field of use, including usage of the
+Model in an end-use application - e.g. chatbot, translator, image
+generator.
+
+"Third Parties" means individuals or legal entities that are not under
+common control with Licensor or You.
+
+"Contribution" means any work of authorship, including the original
+version of the Model and any modifications or additions to that Model
+or Derivatives of the Model thereof, that is intentionally submitted
+to Licensor for inclusion in the Model by the copyright owner or by an
+individual or Legal Entity authorized to submit on behalf of the
+copyright owner. For the purposes of this definition, "submitted"
+means any form of electronic, verbal, or written communication sent to
+the Licensor or its representatives, including but not limited to
+communication on electronic mailing lists, source code control
+systems, and issue tracking systems that are managed by, or on behalf
+of, the Licensor for the purpose of discussing and improving the
+Model, but excluding communication that is conspicuously marked or
+otherwise designated in writing by the copyright owner as "Not a
+Contribution."
+
+"Contributor" means Licensor and any individual or Legal Entity on
+behalf of whom a Contribution has been received by Licensor and
+subsequently incorporated within the Model.
+
+Section II: INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS
+
+Both copyright and patent grants apply to the Model, Derivatives of
+the Model and Complementary Material. The Model and Derivatives of the
+Model are subject to additional terms as described in
+
+Section III.
+
+Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
+this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
+worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
+copyright license to reproduce, prepare, publicly display, publicly
+perform, sublicense, and distribute the Complementary Material, the
+Model, and Derivatives of the Model.
+
+Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
+License and where and as applicable, each Contributor hereby grants to
+You a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free,
+irrevocable (except as stated in this paragraph) patent license to
+make, have made, use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise
+transfer the Model and the Complementary Material, where such license
+applies only to those patent claims licensable by such Contributor
+that are necessarily infringed by their Contribution(s) alone or by
+combination of their Contribution(s) with the Model to which such
+Contribution(s) was submitted. If You institute patent litigation
+against any entity (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a
+lawsuit) alleging that the Model and/or Complementary Material or a
+Contribution incorporated within the Model and/or Complementary
+Material constitutes direct or contributory patent infringement, then
+any patent licenses granted to You under this License for the Model
+and/or Work shall terminate as of the date such litigation is asserted
+or filed.
+
+Section III: CONDITIONS OF USAGE, DISTRIBUTION AND REDISTRIBUTION
+
+Distribution and Redistribution. You may host for Third Party remote
+access purposes (e.g. software-as-a-service), reproduce and distribute
+copies of the Model or Derivatives of the Model thereof in any medium,
+with or without modifications, provided that You meet the following
+conditions: Use-based restrictions as referenced in paragraph 5 MUST
+be included as an enforceable provision by You in any type of legal
+agreement (e.g. a license) governing the use and/or distribution of
+the Model or Derivatives of the Model, and You shall give notice to
+subsequent users You Distribute to, that the Model or Derivatives of
+the Model are subject to paragraph 5. This provision does not apply to
+the use of Complementary Material. You must give any Third Party
+recipients of the Model or Derivatives of the Model a copy of this
+License; You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
+stating that You changed the files; You must retain all copyright,
+patent, trademark, and attribution notices excluding those notices
+that do not pertain to any part of the Model, Derivatives of the
+Model. You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications
+and may provide additional or different license terms and conditions -
+respecting paragraph 4.a. - for use, reproduction, or Distribution of
+Your modifications, or for any such Derivatives of the Model as a
+whole, provided Your use, reproduction, and Distribution of the Model
+otherwise complies with the conditions stated in this License.
+
+Use-based restrictions. The restrictions set forth in Attachment A are
+considered Use-based restrictions. Therefore You cannot use the Model
+and the Derivatives of the Model for the specified restricted
+uses. You may use the Model subject to this License, including only
+for lawful purposes and in accordance with the License. Use may
+include creating any content with, finetuning, updating, running,
+training, evaluating and/or reparametrizing the Model. You shall
+require all of Your users who use the Model or a Derivative of the
+Model to comply with the terms of this paragraph (paragraph 5).
+
+The Output You Generate.  Except as set forth herein, Licensor claims
+no rights in the Output You generate using the Model. You are
+accountable for the Output you generate and its subsequent uses. No
+use of the output can contravene any provision as stated in the
+License.
+
+Section IV: OTHER PROVISIONS
+
+Updates and Runtime Restrictions. To the maximum extent permitted by
+law, Licensor reserves the right to restrict (remotely or otherwise)
+usage of the Model in violation of this License.
+
+Trademarks and related. Nothing in this License permits You to make
+use of Licensors’ trademarks, trade names, logos or to otherwise
+suggest endorsement or misrepresent the relationship between the
+parties; and any rights not expressly granted herein are reserved by
+the Licensors.
+
+Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or agreed to
+in writing, Licensor provides the Model and the Complementary Material
+(and each Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
+WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
+implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
+of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
+PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
+appropriateness of using or redistributing the Model, Derivatives of
+the Model, and the Complementary Material and assume any risks
+associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
+
+Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
+whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise, unless
+required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly negligent
+acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be liable to You
+for damages, including any direct, indirect, special, incidental, or
+consequential damages of any character arising as a result of this
+License or out of the use or inability to use the Model and the
+Complementary Material (including but not limited to damages for loss
+of goodwill, work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any
+and all other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
+has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
+
+Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing the
+Model, Derivatives of the Model and the Complementary Material
+thereof, You may choose to offer, and charge a fee for, acceptance of
+support, warranty, indemnity, or other liability obligations and/or
+rights consistent with this License. However, in accepting such
+obligations, You may act only on Your own behalf and on Your sole
+responsibility, not on behalf of any other Contributor, and only if
+You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for
+any liability incurred by, or claims asserted against, such
+Contributor by reason of your accepting any such warranty or
+additional liability.
+
+If any provision of this License is held to be invalid, illegal or
+unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall be unaffected thereby
+and remain valid as if such provision had not been set forth herein.
+
+
+END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS

+  that group in a manner that causes or is likely to cause that person
+  or another person physical or psychological harm;
+
+* For any use intended to or which has the effect of discriminating
+  against individuals or groups based on legally protected
+  characteristics or categories;
+
+* To provide medical advice and medical results interpretation;

+<a name="migrating-to-3"></a>
+### Migrating a v2.3 InvokeAI root directory
+
+The InvokeAI root directory is where the InvokeAI startup file,
+installed models, and generated images are stored. It is ordinarily
+named `invokeai` and located in your home directory. The contents and
+layout of this directory has changed between versions 2.3 and 3.0 and
+cannot be used directly.
+
+We currently recommend that you use the installer to create a new root
+directory named differently from the 2.3 one, e.g. `invokeai-3` and
+then use a migration script to copy your 2.3 models into the new
+location. However, if you choose, you can upgrade this directory in
+place.  This section gives both recipes.
+
+#### Creating a new root directory and migrating old models
+
+This is the safer recipe because it leaves your old root directory in
+place to fall back on.
+
+1. Follow the instructions above to create and install InvokeAI in a
+directory that has a different name from the 2.3 invokeai directory.
+In this example, we will use "invokeai-3"
+
+2. When you are prompted to select models to install, select a minimal
+set of models, such as stable-diffusion-v1.5 only.
+
+3. After installation is complete launch `invokeai.sh` (Linux/Mac) or
+`invokeai.bat` and select option 8 "Open the developers console". This
+will take you to the command line.
+
+4. Issue the command `invokeai-migrate3 --from /path/to/v2.3-root --to
+/path/to/invokeai-3-root`. Provide the correct `--from` and `--to`
+paths for your v2.3 and v3.0 root directories respectively.
+
+This will copy and convert your old models from 2.3 format to 3.0
+format and create a new `models` directory in the 3.0 directory. The
+old models directory (which contains the models selected at install
+time) will be renamed `models.orig` and can be deleted once you have
+confirmed that the migration was successful.
+
+ If you wish, you can pass the 2.3 root directory to both `--from` and
+`--to` in order to update in place. Warning: this directory will no
+longer be usable with InvokeAI 2.3.
+
+#### Migrating in place
+
+For the adventurous, you may do an in-place upgrade from 2.3 to 3.0
+without touching the command line. ***This recipe does not work on
+Windows platforms due to a bug in the Windows version of the 2.3
+upgrade script.** See the next section for a Windows recipe.
+
+##### For Mac and Linux Users:
+
+1. Launch the InvokeAI launcher script in your current v2.3 root directory.
+
+2. Select option [9] "Update InvokeAI" to bring up the updater dialog.
+
+3. Select option [1] to upgrade to the latest release.
+
+4. Once the upgrade is finished you will be returned to the launcher
+menu. Select option [7] "Re-run the configure script to fix a broken
+install or to complete a major upgrade".
+
+This will run the configure script against the v2.3 directory and
+update it to the 3.0 format. The following files will be replaced:
+
+  - The invokeai.init file, replaced by invokeai.yaml
+  - The models directory
+  - The configs/models.yaml model index
+  
+The original versions of these files will be saved with the suffix
+".orig" appended to the end. Once you have confirmed that the upgrade
+worked, you can safely remove these files. Alternatively you can
+restore a working v2.3 directory by removing the new files and
+restoring the ".orig" files' original names.
+
+##### For Windows Users:
+
+Windows Users can upgrade with the
+
+1. Enter the 2.3 root directory you wish to upgrade
+2. Launch `invoke.sh` or `invoke.bat`
+3. Select the "Developer's console" option [8]
+4. Type the following commands
+
+```
+pip install "invokeai @ https://github.com/invoke-ai/InvokeAI/archive/refs/tags/v3.0.0" --use-pep517 --upgrade
+invokeai-configure --root .
+```
+(Replace `v3.0.0` with the current release number if this document is out of date).
+
+The first command will install and upgrade new software to run
+InvokeAI. The second will prepare the 2.3 directory for use with 3.0.
+You may now launch the WebUI in the usual way, by selecting option [1]
+from the launcher script
+
+#### Migration Caveats
+
+The migration script will migrate your invokeai settings and models,
+including textual inversion models, LoRAs and merges that you may have
+installed previously. However it does **not** migrate the generated
+images stored in your 2.3-format outputs directory. You will need to
+manually import selected images into the 3.0 gallery via drag-and-drop.

+# InvokeAI Containerized
+
+All commands are to be run from the `docker` directory: `cd docker`
+
+#### Linux
+
+1. Ensure builkit is enabled in the Docker daemon settings (`/etc/docker/daemon.json`)
+2. Install the `docker compose` plugin using your package manager, or follow a [tutorial](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-and-use-docker-compose-on-ubuntu-22-04).
+    - The deprecated `docker-compose` (hyphenated) CLI continues to work for now.
+3. Ensure docker daemon is able to access the GPU.
+    - You may need to install [nvidia-container-toolkit](https://docs.nvidia.com/datacenter/cloud-native/container-toolkit/latest/install-guide.html)
+
+#### macOS
+
+1. Ensure Docker has at least 16GB RAM
+2. Enable VirtioFS for file sharing
+3. Enable `docker compose` V2 support
+
+This is done via Docker Desktop preferences
+
+## Quickstart
+
+
+1. Make a copy of `env.sample` and name it `.env` (`cp env.sample .env` (Mac/Linux) or `copy example.env .env` (Windows)). Make changes as necessary. Set `INVOKEAI_ROOT` to an absolute path to:
+    a. the desired location of the InvokeAI runtime directory, or
+    b. an existing, v3.0.0 compatible runtime directory.
+1. `docker compose up`
+
+The image will be built automatically if needed.
+
+The runtime directory (holding models and outputs) will be created in the location specified by `INVOKEAI_ROOT`. The default location is `~/invokeai`. The runtime directory will be populated with the base configs and models necessary to start generating.
+
+### Use a GPU
+
+- Linux is *recommended* for GPU support in Docker.
+- WSL2 is *required* for Windows.
+- only `x86_64` architecture is supported.
+
+The Docker daemon on the system must be already set up to use the GPU. In case of Linux, this involves installing `nvidia-docker-runtime` and configuring the `nvidia` runtime as default. Steps will be different for AMD. Please see Docker documentation for the most up-to-date instructions for using your GPU with Docker.
+
+## Customize
+
+Check the `.env.sample` file. It contains some environment variables for running in Docker. Copy it, name it `.env`, and fill it in with your own values. Next time you run `docker compose up`, your custom values will be used.
+
+You can also set these values in `docker compose.yml` directly, but `.env` will help avoid conflicts when code is updated.
+
+Example (most values are optional):
+
+```
+INVOKEAI_ROOT=/Volumes/WorkDrive/invokeai
+HUGGINGFACE_TOKEN=the_actual_token
+CONTAINER_UID=1000
+GPU_DRIVER=cuda
+```
+
+## Even Moar Customizing!
+
+See the `docker compose.yaml` file. The `command` instruction can be uncommented and used to run arbitrary startup commands. Some examples below.
+
+### Reconfigure the runtime directory
+
+Can be used to download additional models from the supported model list
+
+In conjunction with `INVOKEAI_ROOT` can be also used to initialize a runtime directory
+
+```
+command:
+  - invokeai-configure
+  - --yes
+```
+
+Or install models:
+
+```
+command:
+  - invokeai-model-install
+```

+# InvokeAI - A Stable Diffusion Toolkit
+
+Stable Diffusion distribution by InvokeAI: https://github.com/invoke-ai
+
+The Docker image tracks the `main` branch of the InvokeAI project, which means it includes the latest features, but may contain some bugs.
+
+Your working directory is mounted under the `/workspace` path inside the pod. The models are in `/workspace/invokeai/models`, and outputs are in `/workspace/invokeai/outputs`.
+
+> **Only the /workspace directory will persist between pod restarts!**
+
+> **If you _terminate_ (not just _stop_) the pod, the /workspace will be lost.**
+
+## Quickstart
+
+1. Launch a pod from this template. **It will take about 5-10 minutes to run through the initial setup**. Be patient.
+1. Wait for the application to load.
+    - TIP: you know it's ready when the CPU usage goes idle
+    - You can also check the logs for a line that says "_Point your browser at..._"
+1. Open the Invoke AI web UI: click the `Connect` => `connect over  HTTP` button.
+1. Generate some art!
+
+## Other things you can do
+
+At any point you may edit the pod configuration and set an arbitrary Docker command. For example, you could run a command to downloads some models using `curl`, or fetch some images and place them into your outputs to continue a working session.
+
+If you need to run *multiple commands*, define them in the Docker Command field like this:
+
+`bash -c "cd ${INVOKEAI_ROOT}/outputs; wormhole receive 2-foo-bar; invoke.py --web --host 0.0.0.0"`
+
+### Copying your data in and out of the pod
+
+This image includes a couple of handy tools to help you get the data into the pod (such as your custom models or embeddings), and out of the pod (such as downloading your outputs). Here are your options for getting your data in and out of the pod:
+
+- **SSH server**:
+    1. Make sure to create and set your Public Key in the RunPod settings (follow the official instructions)
+    1. Add an exposed port 22 (TCP) in the pod settings!
+    1. When your pod restarts, you will see a new entry in the `Connect` dialog. Use this SSH server to `scp` or `sftp` your files as necessary, or SSH into the pod using the fully fledged SSH server.
+
+- [**Magic Wormhole**](https://magic-wormhole.readthedocs.io/en/latest/welcome.html):
+    1. On your computer, `pip install magic-wormhole` (see above instructions for details)
+    1. Connect to the command line **using the "light" SSH client** or the browser-based console. _Currently there's a bug where `wormhole` isn't available when connected to "full" SSH server, as described above_.
+    1. `wormhole send /workspace/invokeai/outputs` will send the entire `outputs` directory. You can also send individual files.
+    1. Once packaged, you will see a `wormhole receive <123-some-words>` command. Copy it
+    1. Paste this command into the terminal on your local machine to securely download the payload.
+    1. It works the same in reverse: you can `wormhole send` some models from your computer to the pod. Again, save your files somewhere in `/workspace` or they will be lost when the pod is stopped.
+
+- **RunPod's Cloud Sync feature** may be used to sync the persistent volume to cloud storage. You could, for example, copy the entire `/workspace` to S3, add some custom models to it, and copy it back from S3 when launching new pod configurations. Follow the Cloud Sync instructions.
+
+
+### Disable the NSFW checker
+
+The NSFW checker is enabled by default. To disable it, edit the pod configuration and set the following command:
+
+```
+invoke --web --host 0.0.0.0 --no-nsfw_checker
+```

 # :octicons-log-16: **Changelog**
 
+## v2.3.5 <small>(22 May 2023)</small>
+
+This release (along with the post1 and post2 follow-on releases) expands support for additional LoRA and LyCORIS models, upgrades diffusers versions, and fixes a few bugs.
+
+### LoRA and LyCORIS Support Improvement
+
+    A number of LoRA/LyCORIS fine-tune files (those which alter the text encoder as well as the unet model) were not having the desired effect in InvokeAI. This bug has now been fixed. Full documentation of LoRA support is available at InvokeAI LoRA Support.
+    Previously, InvokeAI did not distinguish between LoRA/LyCORIS models based on Stable Diffusion v1.5 vs those based on v2.0 and 2.1, leading to a crash when an incompatible model was loaded. This has now been fixed. In addition, the web pulldown menus for LoRA and Textual Inversion selection have been enhanced to show only those files that are compatible with the currently-selected Stable Diffusion model.
+    Support for the newer LoKR LyCORIS files has been added.
+
+### Library Updates and Speed/Reproducibility Advancements
+The major enhancement in this version is that NVIDIA users no longer need to decide between speed and reproducibility. Previously, if you activated the Xformers library, you would see improvements in speed and memory usage, but multiple images generated with the same seed and other parameters would be slightly different from each other. This is no longer the case. Relative to 2.3.5 you will see improved performance when running without Xformers, and even better performance when Xformers is activated. In both cases, images generated with the same settings will be identical.
+
+Here are the new library versions:
+Library 	Version
+Torch 	2.0.0
+Diffusers 	0.16.1
+Xformers 	0.0.19
+Compel 	1.1.5
+Other Improvements
+
+### Performance Improvements
+
+    When a model is loaded for the first time, InvokeAI calculates its checksum for incorporation into the PNG metadata. This process could take up to a minute on network-mounted disks and WSL mounts. This release noticeably speeds up the process.
+
+### Bug Fixes
+
+    The "import models from directory" and "import from URL" functionality in the console-based model installer has now been fixed.
+    When running the WebUI, we have reduced the number of times that InvokeAI reaches out to HuggingFace to fetch the list of embeddable Textual Inversion models. We have also caught and fixed a problem with the updater not correctly detecting when another instance of the updater is running 
+
+
+## v2.3.4 <small>(7 April 2023)</small>
+
+What's New in 2.3.4
+
+This features release adds support for LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation) and LyCORIS (Lora beYond Conventional) models, as well as some minor bug fixes.
+### LoRA and LyCORIS Support
+
+LoRA files contain fine-tuning weights that enable particular styles, subjects or concepts to be applied to generated images. LyCORIS files are an extended variant of LoRA. InvokeAI supports the most common LoRA/LyCORIS format, which ends in the suffix .safetensors. You will find numerous LoRA and LyCORIS models for download at Civitai, and a small but growing number at Hugging Face. Full documentation of LoRA support is available at InvokeAI LoRA Support.( Pre-release note: this page will only be available after release)
+
+To use LoRA/LyCORIS models in InvokeAI:
+
+    Download the .safetensors files of your choice and place in /path/to/invokeai/loras. This directory was not present in earlier version of InvokeAI but will be created for you the first time you run the command-line or web client. You can also create the directory manually.
+
+    Add withLora(lora-file,weight) to your prompts. The weight is optional and will default to 1.0. A few examples, assuming that a LoRA file named loras/sushi.safetensors is present:
+
+family sitting at dinner table eating sushi withLora(sushi,0.9)
+family sitting at dinner table eating sushi withLora(sushi, 0.75)
+family sitting at dinner table eating sushi withLora(sushi)
+
+Multiple withLora() prompt fragments are allowed. The weight can be arbitrarily large, but the useful range is roughly 0.5 to 1.0. Higher weights make the LoRA's influence stronger. Negative weights are also allowed, which can lead to some interesting effects.
+
+    Generate as you usually would! If you find that the image is too "crisp" try reducing the overall CFG value or reducing individual LoRA weights. As is the case with all fine-tunes, you'll get the best results when running the LoRA on top of the model similar to, or identical with, the one that was used during the LoRA's training. Don't try to load a SD 1.x-trained LoRA into a SD 2.x model, and vice versa. This will trigger a non-fatal error message and generation will not proceed.
+
+    You can change the location of the loras directory by passing the --lora_directory option to `invokeai.
+
+### New WebUI LoRA and Textual Inversion Buttons
+
+This version adds two new web interface buttons for inserting LoRA and Textual Inversion triggers into the prompt as shown in the screenshot below.
+
+Clicking on one or the other of the buttons will bring up a menu of available LoRA/LyCORIS or Textual Inversion trigger terms. Select a menu item to insert the properly-formatted withLora() or <textual-inversion> prompt fragment into the positive prompt. The number in parentheses indicates the number of trigger terms currently in the prompt. You may click the button again and deselect the LoRA or trigger to remove it from the prompt, or simply edit the prompt directly.
+
+Currently terms are inserted into the positive prompt textbox only. However, some textual inversion embeddings are designed to be used with negative prompts. To move a textual inversion trigger into the negative prompt, simply cut and paste it.
+
+By default the Textual Inversion menu only shows locally installed models found at startup time in /path/to/invokeai/embeddings. However, InvokeAI has the ability to dynamically download and install additional Textual Inversion embeddings from the HuggingFace Concepts Library. You may choose to display the most popular of these (with five or more likes) in the Textual Inversion menu by going to Settings and turning on "Show Textual Inversions from HF Concepts Library." When this option is activated, the locally-installed TI embeddings will be shown first, followed by uninstalled terms from Hugging Face. See The Hugging Face Concepts Library and Importing Textual Inversion files for more information.
+### Minor features and fixes
+
+This release changes model switching behavior so that the command-line and Web UIs save the last model used and restore it the next time they are launched. It also improves the behavior of the installer so that the pip utility is kept up to date.
+  
+### Known Bugs in 2.3.4
+
+These are known bugs in the release.
+
+    The Ancestral DPMSolverMultistepScheduler (k_dpmpp_2a) sampler is not yet implemented for diffusers models and will disappear from the WebUI Sampler menu when a diffusers model is selected.
+    Windows Defender will sometimes raise Trojan or backdoor alerts for the codeformer.pth face restoration model, as well as the CIDAS/clipseg and runwayml/stable-diffusion-v1.5 models. These are false positives and can be safely ignored. InvokeAI performs a malware scan on all models as they are loaded. For additional security, you should use safetensors models whenever they are available.
+
+
+## v2.3.3 <small>(28 March 2023)</small>
+
+This is a bugfix and minor feature release.
+### Bugfixes
+
+Since version 2.3.2 the following bugs have been fixed:
+Bugs
+
+    When using legacy checkpoints with an external VAE, the VAE file is now scanned for malware prior to loading. Previously only the main model weights file was scanned.
+    Textual inversion will select an appropriate batchsize based on whether xformers is active, and will default to xformers enabled if the library is detected.
+    The batch script log file names have been fixed to be compatible with Windows.
+    Occasional corruption of the .next_prefix file (which stores the next output file name in sequence) on Windows systems is now detected and corrected.
+    Support loading of legacy config files that have no personalization (textual inversion) section.
+    An infinite loop when opening the developer's console from within the invoke.sh script has been corrected.
+    Documentation fixes, including a recipe for detecting and fixing problems with the AMD GPU ROCm driver.
+
+Enhancements
+
+    It is now possible to load and run several community-contributed SD-2.0 based models, including the often-requested "Illuminati" model.
+    The "NegativePrompts" embedding file, and others like it, can now be loaded by placing it in the InvokeAI embeddings directory.
+    If no --model is specified at launch time, InvokeAI will remember the last model used and restore it the next time it is launched.
+    On Linux systems, the invoke.sh launcher now uses a prettier console-based interface. To take advantage of it, install the dialog package using your package manager (e.g. sudo apt install dialog).
+    When loading legacy models (safetensors/ckpt) you can specify a custom config file and/or a VAE by placing like-named files in the same directory as the model following this example:
+
+my-favorite-model.ckpt
+my-favorite-model.yaml
+my-favorite-model.vae.pt      # or my-favorite-model.vae.safetensors
+
+### Known Bugs in 2.3.3
+
+These are known bugs in the release.
+
+    The Ancestral DPMSolverMultistepScheduler (k_dpmpp_2a) sampler is not yet implemented for diffusers models and will disappear from the WebUI Sampler menu when a diffusers model is selected.
+    Windows Defender will sometimes raise Trojan or backdoor alerts for the codeformer.pth face restoration model, as well as the CIDAS/clipseg and runwayml/stable-diffusion-v1.5 models. These are false positives and can be safely ignored. InvokeAI performs a malware scan on all models as they are loaded. For additional security, you should use safetensors models whenever they are available.
+
+
+## v2.3.2 <small>(11 March 2023)</small>
+This is a bugfix and minor feature release.
+
+### Bugfixes
+
+Since version 2.3.1 the following bugs have been fixed:
+
+    Black images appearing for potential NSFW images when generating with legacy checkpoint models and both --no-nsfw_checker and --ckpt_convert turned on.
+    Black images appearing when generating from models fine-tuned on Stable-Diffusion-2-1-base. When importing V2-derived models, you may be asked to select whether the model was derived from a "base" model (512 pixels) or the 768-pixel SD-2.1 model.
+    The "Use All" button was not restoring the Hi-Res Fix setting on the WebUI
+    When using the model installer console app, models failed to import correctly when importing from directories with spaces in their names. A similar issue with the output directory was also fixed.
+    Crashes that occurred during model merging.
+    Restore previous naming of Stable Diffusion base and 768 models.
+    Upgraded to latest versions of diffusers, transformers, safetensors and accelerate libraries upstream. We hope that this will fix the assertion NDArray > 2**32 issue that MacOS users have had when generating images larger than 768x768 pixels. Please report back.
+
+As part of the upgrade to diffusers, the location of the diffusers-based models has changed from models/diffusers to models/hub. When you launch InvokeAI for the first time, it will prompt you to OK a one-time move. This should be quick and harmless, but if you have modified your models/diffusers directory in some way, for example using symlinks, you may wish to cancel the migration and make appropriate adjustments.
+New "Invokeai-batch" script
+
+### Invoke AI Batch
+2.3.2 introduces a new command-line only script called invokeai-batch that can be used to generate hundreds of images from prompts and settings that vary systematically. This can be used to try the same prompt across multiple combinations of models, steps, CFG settings and so forth. It also allows you to template prompts and generate a combinatorial list like:
+
+a shack in the mountains, photograph
+a shack in the mountains, watercolor
+a shack in the mountains, oil painting
+a chalet in the mountains, photograph
+a chalet in the mountains, watercolor
+a chalet in the mountains, oil painting
+a shack in the desert, photograph
+...
+
+If you have a system with multiple GPUs, or a single GPU with lots of VRAM, you can parallelize generation across the combinatorial set, reducing wait times and using your system's resources efficiently (make sure you have good GPU cooling).
+
+To try invokeai-batch out. Launch the "developer's console" using the invoke launcher script, or activate the invokeai virtual environment manually. From the console, give the command invokeai-batch --help in order to learn how the script works and create your first template file for dynamic prompt generation.
+
+
+### Known Bugs in 2.3.2
+
+These are known bugs in the release.
+
+    The Ancestral DPMSolverMultistepScheduler (k_dpmpp_2a) sampler is not yet implemented for diffusers models and will disappear from the WebUI Sampler menu when a diffusers model is selected.
+    Windows Defender will sometimes raise a Trojan alert for the codeformer.pth face restoration model. As far as we have been able to determine, this is a false positive and can be safely whitelisted.
+
+
+## v2.3.1 <small>(22 February 2023)</small>
+This is primarily a bugfix release, but it does provide several new features that will improve the user experience.
+
+### Enhanced support for model management
+
+InvokeAI now makes it convenient to add, remove and modify models. You can individually import models that are stored on your local system, scan an entire folder and its subfolders for models and import them automatically, and even directly import models from the internet by providing their download URLs. You also have the option of designating a local folder to scan for new models each time InvokeAI is restarted.
+
+There are three ways of accessing the model management features:
+
+    From the WebUI, click on the cube to the right of the model selection menu. This will bring up a form that allows you to import models individually from your local disk or scan a directory for models to import.
+
+    Using the Model Installer App
+
+Choose option (5) download and install models from the invoke launcher script to start a new console-based application for model management. You can use this to select from a curated set of starter models, or import checkpoint, safetensors, and diffusers models from a local disk or the internet. The example below shows importing two checkpoint URLs from popular SD sites and a HuggingFace diffusers model using its Repository ID. It also shows how to designate a folder to be scanned at startup time for new models to import.
+
+Command-line users can start this app using the command invokeai-model-install.
+
+    Using the Command Line Client (CLI)
+
+The !install_model and !convert_model commands have been enhanced to allow entering of URLs and local directories to scan and import. The first command installs .ckpt and .safetensors files as-is. The second one converts them into the faster diffusers format before installation.
+
+Internally InvokeAI is able to probe the contents of a .ckpt or .safetensors file to distinguish among v1.x, v2.x and inpainting models. This means that you do not need to include "inpaint" in your model names to use an inpainting model. Note that Stable Diffusion v2.x models will be autoconverted into a diffusers model the first time you use it.
+
+Please see INSTALLING MODELS for more information on model management.
+
+### An Improved Installer Experience
+
+The installer now launches a console-based UI for setting and changing commonly-used startup options:
+
+After selecting the desired options, the installer installs several support models needed by InvokeAI's face reconstruction and upscaling features and then launches the interface for selecting and installing models shown earlier. At any time, you can edit the startup options by launching invoke.sh/invoke.bat and entering option (6) change InvokeAI startup options
+
+Command-line users can launch the new configure app using invokeai-configure.
+
+This release also comes with a renewed updater. To do an update without going through a whole reinstallation, launch invoke.sh or invoke.bat and choose option (9) update InvokeAI . This will bring you to a screen that prompts you to update to the latest released version, to the most current development version, or any released or unreleased version you choose by selecting the tag or branch of the desired version.
+
+Command-line users can run this interface by typing invokeai-configure
+
+### Image Symmetry Options
+
+There are now features to generate horizontal and vertical symmetry during generation. The way these work is to wait until a selected step in the generation process and then to turn on a mirror image effect. In addition to generating some cool images, you can also use this to make side-by-side comparisons of how an image will look with more or fewer steps. Access this option from the WebUI by selecting Symmetry from the image generation settings, or within the CLI by using the options --h_symmetry_time_pct and --v_symmetry_time_pct (these can be abbreviated to --h_sym and --v_sym like all other options).
+
+### A New Unified Canvas Look
+
+This release introduces a beta version of the WebUI Unified Canvas. To try it out, open up the settings dialogue in the WebUI (gear icon) and select Use Canvas Beta Layout:
+
+Refresh the screen and go to to Unified Canvas (left side of screen, third icon from the top). The new layout is designed to provide more space to work in and to keep the image controls close to the image itself:
+
+Model conversion and merging within the WebUI
+
+The WebUI now has an intuitive interface for model merging, as well as for permanent conversion of models from legacy .ckpt/.safetensors formats into diffusers format. These options are also available directly from the invoke.sh/invoke.bat scripts.
+An easier way to contribute translations to the WebUI
+
+We have migrated our translation efforts to Weblate, a FOSS translation product. Maintaining the growing project's translations is now far simpler for the maintainers and community. Please review our brief translation guide for more information on how to contribute.
+Numerous internal bugfixes and performance issues
+
+### Bug Fixes

 # Invocations
 
-Invocations represent a single operation, its inputs, and its outputs. These
-operations and their outputs can be chained together to generate and modify
-images.
+Features in InvokeAI are added in the form of modular node-like systems called
+**Invocations**.
+
+An Invocation is simply a single operation that takes in some inputs and gives
+out some outputs. We can then chain multiple Invocations together to create more
+complex functionality.
+
+## Invocations Directory
+
+InvokeAI Invocations can be found in the `invokeai/app/invocations` directory.
+
+You can add your new functionality to one of the existing Invocations in this
+directory or create a new file in this directory as per your needs.
+
+**Note:** _All Invocations must be inside this directory for InvokeAI to
+recognize them as valid Invocations._
+
+## Creating A New Invocation
+
+In order to understand the process of creating a new Invocation, let us actually
+create one.
+
+In our example, let us create an Invocation that will take in an image, resize
+it and output the resized image.
+
+The first set of things we need to do when creating a new Invocation are -
+
+- Create a new class that derives from a predefined parent class called
+  `BaseInvocation`.
+- The name of every Invocation must end with the word `Invocation` in order for
+  it to be recognized as an Invocation.
+- Every Invocation must have a `docstring` that describes what this Invocation
+  does.
+- Every Invocation must have a unique `type` field defined which becomes its
+  indentifier.
+- Invocations are strictly typed. We make use of the native
+  [typing](https://docs.python.org/3/library/typing.html) library and the
+  installed [pydantic](https://pydantic-docs.helpmanual.io/) library for
+  validation.
+
+So let us do that.
+
+```python
+from typing import Literal
+from .baseinvocation import BaseInvocation
+
+class ResizeInvocation(BaseInvocation):
+    '''Resizes an image'''
+    type: Literal['resize'] = 'resize'
+```
+
+That's great.
+
+Now we have setup the base of our new Invocation. Let us think about what inputs
+our Invocation takes.
+
+- We need an `image` that we are going to resize.
+- We will need new `width` and `height` values to which we need to resize the
+  image to.
+
+### **Inputs**
+
+Every Invocation input is a pydantic `Field` and like everything else should be
+strictly typed and defined.
+
+So let us create these inputs for our Invocation. First up, the `image` input we
+need. Generally, we can use standard variable types in Python but InvokeAI
+already has a custom `ImageField` type that handles all the stuff that is needed
+for image inputs.
+
+But what is this `ImageField` ..? It is a special class type specifically
+written to handle how images are dealt with in InvokeAI. We will cover how to
+create your own custom field types later in this guide. For now, let's go ahead
+and use it.
+
+```python
+from typing import Literal, Union
+from pydantic import Field
+
+from .baseinvocation import BaseInvocation
+from ..models.image import ImageField
+
+class ResizeInvocation(BaseInvocation):
+    '''Resizes an image'''
+    type: Literal['resize'] = 'resize'
+
+    # Inputs
+    image: Union[ImageField, None] = Field(description="The input image", default=None)
+```
+
+Let us break down our input code.
+
+```python
+image: Union[ImageField, None] = Field(description="The input image", default=None)
+```
+
+| Part      | Value                                                | Description                                                                                        |
+| --------- | ---------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| Name      | `image`                                              | The variable that will hold our image                                                              |
+| Type Hint | `Union[ImageField, None]`                            | The types for our field. Indicates that the image can either be an `ImageField` type or `None`     |
+| Field     | `Field(description="The input image", default=None)` | The image variable is a field which needs a description and a default value that we set to `None`. |
+
+Great. Now let us create our other inputs for `width` and `height`
+
+```python
+from typing import Literal, Union
+from pydantic import Field
+
+from .baseinvocation import BaseInvocation
+from ..models.image import ImageField
+
+class ResizeInvocation(BaseInvocation):
+    '''Resizes an image'''
+    type: Literal['resize'] = 'resize'
+
+    # Inputs
+    image: Union[ImageField, None] = Field(description="The input image", default=None)
+    width: int = Field(default=512, ge=64, le=2048, description="Width of the new image")
+    height: int = Field(default=512, ge=64, le=2048, description="Height of the new image")
+```
+
+As you might have noticed, we added two new parameters to the field type for
+`width` and `height` called `gt` and `le`. These basically stand for _greater
+than or equal to_ and _less than or equal to_. There are various other param
+types for field that you can find on the **pydantic** documentation.
+
+**Note:** _Any time it is possible to define constraints for our field, we
+should do it so the frontend has more information on how to parse this field._
+
+Perfect. We now have our inputs. Let us do something with these.
+
+### **Invoke Function**
+
+The `invoke` function is where all the magic happens. This function provides you
+the `context` parameter that is of the type `InvocationContext` which will give
+you access to the current context of the generation and all the other services
+that are provided by it by InvokeAI.
+
+Let us create this function first.
+
+```python
+from typing import Literal, Union
+from pydantic import Field
+
+from .baseinvocation import BaseInvocation, InvocationContext
+from ..models.image import ImageField
+
+class ResizeInvocation(BaseInvocation):
+    '''Resizes an image'''
+    type: Literal['resize'] = 'resize'
+
+    # Inputs
+    image: Union[ImageField, None] = Field(description="The input image", default=None)
+    width: int = Field(default=512, ge=64, le=2048, description="Width of the new image")
+    height: int = Field(default=512, ge=64, le=2048, description="Height of the new image")
+
+    def invoke(self, context: InvocationContext):
+        pass
+```
+
+### **Outputs**
+
+The output of our Invocation will be whatever is returned by this `invoke`
+function. Like with our inputs, we need to strongly type and define our outputs
+too.
+
+What is our output going to be? Another image. Normally you'd have to create a
+type for this but InvokeAI already offers you an `ImageOutput` type that handles
+all the necessary info related to image outputs. So let us use that.
+
+We will cover how to create your own output types later in this guide.
+
+```python
+from typing import Literal, Union
+from pydantic import Field
+
+from .baseinvocation import BaseInvocation, InvocationContext
+from ..models.image import ImageField
+from .image import ImageOutput
+
+class ResizeInvocation(BaseInvocation):
+    '''Resizes an image'''
+    type: Literal['resize'] = 'resize'
+
+    # Inputs
+    image: Union[ImageField, None] = Field(description="The input image", default=None)
+    width: int = Field(default=512, ge=64, le=2048, description="Width of the new image")
+    height: int = Field(default=512, ge=64, le=2048, description="Height of the new image")
+
+    def invoke(self, context: InvocationContext) -> ImageOutput:
+        pass
+```
+
+Perfect. Now that we have our Invocation setup, let us do what we want to do.
+
+- We will first load the image. Generally we do this using the `PIL` library but
+  we can use one of the services provided by InvokeAI to load the image.
+- We will resize the image using `PIL` to our input data.
+- We will output this image in the format we set above.
+
+So let's do that.
+
+```python
+from typing import Literal, Union
+from pydantic import Field
+
+from .baseinvocation import BaseInvocation, InvocationContext
+from ..models.image import ImageField, ResourceOrigin, ImageCategory
+from .image import ImageOutput
+
+class ResizeInvocation(BaseInvocation):
+    '''Resizes an image'''
+    type: Literal['resize'] = 'resize'
+
+    # Inputs
+    image: Union[ImageField, None] = Field(description="The input image", default=None)
+    width: int = Field(default=512, ge=64, le=2048, description="Width of the new image")
+    height: int = Field(default=512, ge=64, le=2048, description="Height of the new image")
+
+    def invoke(self, context: InvocationContext) -> ImageOutput:
+        # Load the image using InvokeAI's predefined Image Service.
+        image = context.services.images.get_pil_image(self.image.image_origin, self.image.image_name)
+
+        # Resizing the image
+        # Because we used the above service, we already have a PIL image. So we can simply resize.
+        resized_image = image.resize((self.width, self.height))
+
+        # Preparing the image for output using InvokeAI's predefined Image Service.
+        output_image = context.services.images.create(
+            image=resized_image,
+            image_origin=ResourceOrigin.INTERNAL,
+            image_category=ImageCategory.GENERAL,
+            node_id=self.id,
+            session_id=context.graph_execution_state_id,
+            is_intermediate=self.is_intermediate,
+        )
+
+        # Returning the Image
+        return ImageOutput(
+            image=ImageField(
+                image_name=output_image.image_name,
+                image_origin=output_image.image_origin,
+            ),
+            width=output_image.width,
+            height=output_image.height,
+        )
+```
+
+**Note:** Do not be overwhelmed by the `ImageOutput` process. InvokeAI has a
+certain way that the images need to be dispatched in order to be stored and read
+correctly. In 99% of the cases when dealing with an image output, you can simply
+copy-paste the template above.
+
+That's it. You made your own **Resize Invocation**.
+
+## Result
+
+Once you make your Invocation correctly, the rest of the process is fully
+automated for you.
+
+When you launch InvokeAI, you can go to `http://localhost:9090/docs` and see
+your new Invocation show up there with all the relevant info.
+
+![resize invocation](../assets/contributing/resize_invocation.png)
+
+When you launch the frontend UI, you can go to the Node Editor tab and find your
+new Invocation ready to be used.
+

+
+# Advanced
+
+## Custom Input Fields
+
+Now that you know how to create your own Invocations, let us dive into slightly
+more advanced topics.
+
+While creating your own Invocations, you might run into a scenario where the
+existing input types in InvokeAI do not meet your requirements. In such cases,
+you can create your own input types.
+
+Let us create one as an example. Let us say we want to create a color input
+field that represents a color code. But before we start on that here are some
+general good practices to keep in mind.
+
+**Good Practices**
+
+- There is no naming convention for input fields but we highly recommend that
+  you name it something appropriate like `ColorField`.
+- It is not mandatory but it is heavily recommended to add a relevant
+  `docstring` to describe your input field.
+- Keep your field in the same file as the Invocation that it is made for or in
+  another file where it is relevant.
+
+All input types a class that derive from the `BaseModel` type from `pydantic`.
+So let's create one.
+
+```python
+from pydantic import BaseModel
+
+class ColorField(BaseModel):
+    '''A field that holds the rgba values of a color'''
+    pass
+```
+
+Perfect. Now let us create our custom inputs for our field. This is exactly
+similar how you created input fields for your Invocation. All the same rules
+apply. Let us create four fields representing the _red(r)_, _blue(b)_,
+_green(g)_ and _alpha(a)_ channel of the color.
+
+```python
+class ColorField(BaseModel):
+    '''A field that holds the rgba values of a color'''
+    r: int = Field(ge=0, le=255, description="The red channel")
+    g: int = Field(ge=0, le=255, description="The green channel")
+    b: int = Field(ge=0, le=255, description="The blue channel")
+    a: int = Field(ge=0, le=255, description="The alpha channel")
+```
+
+That's it. We now have a new input field type that we can use in our Invocations
+like this.
+
+```python
+color: ColorField = Field(default=ColorField(r=0, g=0, b=0, a=0), description='Background color of an image')
+```
+
+**Extra Config**
+
+All input fields also take an additional `Config` class that you can use to do
+various advanced things like setting required parameters and etc.
+
+Let us do that for our _ColorField_ and enforce all the values because we did
+not define any defaults for our fields.
+
+```python
+class ColorField(BaseModel):
+    '''A field that holds the rgba values of a color'''
+    r: int = Field(ge=0, le=255, description="The red channel")
+    g: int = Field(ge=0, le=255, description="The green channel")
+    b: int = Field(ge=0, le=255, description="The blue channel")
+    a: int = Field(ge=0, le=255, description="The alpha channel")
+
+    class Config:
+        schema_extra = {"required": ["r", "g", "b", "a"]}
+```
+
+Now it becomes mandatory for the user to supply all the values required by our
+input field.
+
+We will discuss the `Config` class in extra detail later in this guide and how
+you can use it to make your Invocations more robust.
+
+## Custom Output Types
+
+Like with custom inputs, sometimes you might find yourself needing custom
+outputs that InvokeAI does not provide. We can easily set one up.
+
+Now that you are familiar with Invocations and Inputs, let us use that knowledge
+to put together a custom output type for an Invocation that returns _width_,
+_height_ and _background_color_ that we need to create a blank image.
+
+- A custom output type is a class that derives from the parent class of
+  `BaseInvocationOutput`.
+- It is not mandatory but we recommend using names ending with `Output` for
+  output types. So we'll call our class `BlankImageOutput`
+- It is not mandatory but we highly recommend adding a `docstring` to describe
+  what your output type is for.
+- Like Invocations, each output type should have a `type` variable that is
+  **unique**
+
+Now that we know the basic rules for creating a new output type, let us go ahead
+and make it.
+
+```python
+from typing import Literal
+from pydantic import Field
+
+from .baseinvocation import BaseInvocationOutput
+
+class BlankImageOutput(BaseInvocationOutput):
+    '''Base output type for creating a blank image'''
+    type: Literal['blank_image_output'] = 'blank_image_output'
+
+    # Inputs
+    width: int = Field(description='Width of blank image')
+    height: int = Field(description='Height of blank image')
+    bg_color: ColorField = Field(description='Background color of blank image')
+
+    class Config:
+        schema_extra = {"required": ["type", "width", "height", "bg_color"]}
+```
+
+All set. We now have an output type that requires what we need to create a
+blank_image. And if you noticed it, we even used the `Config` class to ensure
+the fields are required.
+
+## Custom Configuration
+
+As you might have noticed when making inputs and outputs, we used a class called
+`Config` from _pydantic_ to further customize them. Because our inputs and
+outputs essentially inherit from _pydantic_'s `BaseModel` class, all
+[configuration options](https://docs.pydantic.dev/latest/usage/schema/#schema-customization)
+that are valid for _pydantic_ classes are also valid for our inputs and outputs.
+You can do the same for your Invocations too but InvokeAI makes our life a
+little bit easier on that end.
+
+InvokeAI provides a custom configuration class called `InvocationConfig`
+particularly for configuring Invocations. This is exactly the same as the raw
+`Config` class from _pydantic_ with some extra stuff on top to help faciliate
+parsing of the scheme in the frontend UI.
+
+At the current moment, tihs `InvocationConfig` class is further improved with
+the following features related the `ui`.
+
+| Config Option | Field Type                                                                                                    | Example                                                                                                               |
+| ------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| type_hints    | `Dict[str, Literal["integer", "float", "boolean", "string", "enum", "image", "latents", "model", "control"]]` | `type_hint: "model"` provides type hints related to the model like displaying a list of available models              |
+| tags          | `List[str]`                                                                                                   | `tags: ['resize', 'image']` will classify your invocation under the tags of resize and image.                         |
+| title         | `str`                                                                                                         | `title: 'Resize Image` will rename your to this custom title rather than infer from the name of the Invocation class. |
+
+So let us update your `ResizeInvocation` with some extra configuration and see
+how that works.
+
+```python
+from typing import Literal, Union
+from pydantic import Field
+
+from .baseinvocation import BaseInvocation, InvocationContext, InvocationConfig
+from ..models.image import ImageField, ResourceOrigin, ImageCategory
+from .image import ImageOutput
+
+class ResizeInvocation(BaseInvocation):
+    '''Resizes an image'''
+    type: Literal['resize'] = 'resize'
+
+    # Inputs
+    image: Union[ImageField, None] = Field(description="The input image", default=None)
+    width: int = Field(default=512, ge=64, le=2048, description="Width of the new image")
+    height: int = Field(default=512, ge=64, le=2048, description="Height of the new image")
+
+    class Config(InvocationConfig):
+        schema_extra: {
+            ui: {
+                tags: ['resize', 'image'],
+                title: ['My Custom Resize']
+            }
+        }
+
+    def invoke(self, context: InvocationContext) -> ImageOutput:
+        # Load the image using InvokeAI's predefined Image Service.
+        image = context.services.images.get_pil_image(self.image.image_origin, self.image.image_name)
+
+        # Resizing the image
+        # Because we used the above service, we already have a PIL image. So we can simply resize.
+        resized_image = image.resize((self.width, self.height))
+
+        # Preparing the image for output using InvokeAI's predefined Image Service.
+        output_image = context.services.images.create(
+            image=resized_image,
+            image_origin=ResourceOrigin.INTERNAL,
+            image_category=ImageCategory.GENERAL,
+            node_id=self.id,
+            session_id=context.graph_execution_state_id,
+            is_intermediate=self.is_intermediate,
+        )
+
+        # Returning the Image
+        return ImageOutput(
+            image=ImageField(
+                image_name=output_image.image_name,
+                image_origin=output_image.image_origin,
+            ),
+            width=output_image.width,
+            height=output_image.height,
+        )
+```
+
+We now customized our code to let the frontend know that our Invocation falls
+under `resize` and `image` categories. So when the user searches for these
+particular words, our Invocation will show up too.
+
+We also set a custom title for our Invocation. So instead of being called
+`Resize`, it will be called `My Custom Resize`.
+
+As simple as that.
+
+As time goes by, InvokeAI will further improve and add more customizability for
+Invocation configuration. We will have more documentation regarding this at a
+later time.
+
+# **[TODO]**
+
+## Custom Components For Frontend
+
+Every backend input type should have a corresponding frontend component so the
+UI knows what to render when you use a particular field type.
+
+If you are using existing field types, we already have components for those. So
+you don't have to worry about creating anything new. But this might not always
+be the case. Sometimes you might want to create new field types and have the
+frontend UI deal with it in a different way.
+
+This is where we venture into the world of React and Javascript and create our
+own new components for our Invocations. Do not fear the world of JS. It's
+actually pretty straightforward.
+
+Let us create a new component for our custom color field we created above. When
+we use a color field, let us say we want the UI to display a color picker for
+the user to pick from rather than entering values. That is what we will build
+now.

+This is an optional configuration for the invocation. It inherits from

+
+The UI relies on the OpenAPI schema in two ways:

+- An API client & Typescript types are generated from it. This happens at build
+  time.
+- The node editor parses the schema into a template used by the UI to create the
+  node editor UI. This parsing happens at runtime.
+
+In this example, a `ui` key has been added to the `schema_extra` dict to provide
+some tags for the UI, to facilitate filtering nodes.

+## Developing InvokeAI in VSCode
+
+VSCode offers some nice tools:
+
+- python debugger
+- automatic `venv` activation
+- remote dev (e.g. run InvokeAI on a beefy linux desktop while you type in
+  comfort on your macbook)
+
+### Setup
+
+You'll need the
+[Python](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-python.python)
+and
+[Pylance](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-python.vscode-pylance)
+extensions installed first.
+
+It's also really handy to install the `Jupyter` extensions:
+
+- [Jupyter](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-toolsai.jupyter)
+- [Jupyter Cell Tags](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-toolsai.vscode-jupyter-cell-tags)
+- [Jupyter Notebook Renderers](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-toolsai.jupyter-renderers)
+- [Jupyter Slide Show](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-toolsai.vscode-jupyter-slideshow)
+
+#### InvokeAI workspace
+
+Creating a VSCode workspace for working on InvokeAI is highly recommended. It
+can hold InvokeAI-specific settings and configs.
+
+To make a workspace:
+
+- Open the InvokeAI repo dir in VSCode
+- `File` > `Save Workspace As` > save it _outside_ the repo
+
+#### Default python interpreter (i.e. automatic virtual environment activation)
+
+- Use command palette to run command
+  `Preferences: Open Workspace Settings (JSON)`
+- Add `python.defaultInterpreterPath` to `settings`, pointing to your `venv`'s
+  python
+
+Should look something like this:
+
+```jsonc
+{
+  // I like to have all InvokeAI-related folders in my workspace
+  "folders": [
+    {
+      // repo root
+      "path": "InvokeAI"
+    },
+    {
+      // InvokeAI root dir, where `invokeai.yaml` lives
+      "path": "/path/to/invokeai_root"
+    }
+  ],
+  "settings": {
+    // Where your InvokeAI `venv`'s python executable lives
+    "python.defaultInterpreterPath": "/path/to/invokeai_root/.venv/bin/python"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Now when you open the VSCode integrated terminal, or do anything that needs to
+run python, it will automatically be in your InvokeAI virtual environment.
+
+Bonus: When you create a Jupyter notebook, when you run it, you'll be prompted
+for the python interpreter to run in. This will default to your `venv` python,
+and so you'll have access to the same python environment as the InvokeAI app.
+
+This is _super_ handy.
+
+#### Debugging configs with `launch.json`
+
+Debugging configs are managed in a `launch.json` file. Like most VSCode configs,
+these can be scoped to a workspace or folder.
+
+Follow the [official guide](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/python/debugging)
+to set up your `launch.json` and try it out.
+
+Now we can create the InvokeAI debugging configs:
+
+```jsonc
+{
+  // Use IntelliSense to learn about possible attributes.
+  // Hover to view descriptions of existing attributes.
+  // For more information, visit: https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=830387

+You'll see these configs in the debugging configs drop down. Running them will
+start InvokeAI with attached debugger, in the correct environment, and work just
+like the normal app.
+
+Enjoy debugging InvokeAI with ease (not that we have any bugs of course).
+
+#### Remote dev
+
+This is very easy to set up and provides the same very smooth experience as
+local development. Environments and debugging, as set up above, just work,
+though you'd need to recreate the workspace and debugging configs on the remote.
+
+Consult the
+[official guide](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/remote-overview) to
+get it set up.
+
+Suggest using VSCode's included settings sync so that your remote dev host has
+all the same app settings and extensions automagically.
+
+##### One remote dev gotcha
+
+I've found the automatic port forwarding to be very flakey. You can disable it
+in `Preferences: Open Remote Settings (ssh: hostname)`. Search for
+`remote.autoForwardPorts` and untick the box.
+
+To forward ports very reliably, use SSH on the remote dev client (e.g. your
+macbook). Here's how to forward both backend API port (`9090`) and the frontend
+live dev server port (`5173`):
+
+```bash
+ssh \
+    -L 9090:localhost:9090 \
+    -L 5173:localhost:5173 \
+    user@remote-dev-host
+```
+
+The forwarding stops when you close the terminal window, so suggest to do this
+_outside_ the VSCode integrated terminal in case you need to restart VSCode for
+an extension update or something
+
+Now, on your remote dev client, you can open `localhost:9090` and access the UI,
+now served from the remote dev host, just the same as if it was running on the
+client.

+# Development
+
+## **What do I need to know to help?**
+
+If you are looking to help to with a code contribution, InvokeAI uses several different technologies under the hood: Python (Pydantic, FastAPI, diffusers) and Typescript (React, Redux Toolkit, ChakraUI, Mantine, Konva). Familiarity with StableDiffusion and image generation concepts is helpful, but not essential. 
+
+For more information, please review our area specific documentation:
+
+* #### [InvokeAI Architecure](../ARCHITECTURE.md)
+* #### [Frontend Documentation](development_guides/contributingToFrontend.md)
+* #### [Node Documentation](../INVOCATIONS.md)
+* #### [Local Development](../LOCAL_DEVELOPMENT.md)
+
+If you don't feel ready to make a code contribution yet, no problem! You can also help out in other ways, such as [documentation](documentation.md) or [translation](translation.md).
+
+There are two paths to making a development contribution: 
+
+1. Choosing an open issue to address. Open issues can be found in the [Issues](https://github.com/invoke-ai/InvokeAI/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen) section of the InvokeAI repository. These are tagged by the issue type (bug, enhancement, etc.) along with the “good first issues” tag denoting if they are suitable for first time contributors.
+    1. Additional items can be found on our [roadmap](https://github.com/orgs/invoke-ai/projects/7). The roadmap is organized in terms of priority, and contains features of varying size and complexity. If there is an inflight item you’d like to help with, reach out to the contributor assigned to the item to see how you can help. 
+2. Opening a new issue or feature to add. **Please make sure you have searched through existing issues before creating new ones.**
+
+*Regardless of what you choose, please post in the  [#dev-chat](https://discord.com/channels/1020123559063990373/1049495067846524939) channel of the Discord before you start development in order to confirm that the issue or feature is aligned with the current direction of the project. We value our contributors time and effort and want to ensure that no one’s time is being misspent.*
+
+## Best Practices: 
+* Keep your pull requests small. Smaller pull requests are more likely to be accepted and merged
+* Comments! Commenting your code helps reviwers easily understand your contribution
+* Use Python and Typescript’s typing systems, and consider using an editor with [LSP](https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/) support to streamline development
+* Make all communications public. This ensure knowledge is shared with the whole community
+
+## **How do I make a contribution?**
+
+Never made an open source contribution before? Wondering how contributions work in our project? Here's a quick rundown!
+
+Before starting these steps, ensure you have your local environment [configured for development](../LOCAL_DEVELOPMENT.md).
+
+1.  Find a [good first issue](https://github.com/invoke-ai/InvokeAI/contribute) that you are interested in addressing or a feature that you would like to add. Then, reach out to our team in the [#dev-chat](https://discord.com/channels/1020123559063990373/1049495067846524939) channel of the Discord to ensure you are  setup for success. 
+2. Fork the [InvokeAI](https://github.com/invoke-ai/InvokeAI) repository to your GitHub profile. This means that you will have a copy of the repository under **your-GitHub-username/InvokeAI**.
+3. Clone the repository to your local machine using:
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/your-GitHub-username/InvokeAI.git
+```
+
+If you're unfamiliar with using Git through the commandline, [GitHub Desktop](https://desktop.github.com) is a easy-to-use alternative with a UI. You can do all the same steps listed here, but through the interface. 
+
+4. Create a new branch for your fix using:
+
+```bash
+git checkout -b branch-name-here
+```
+
+5. Make the appropriate changes for the issue you are trying to address or the feature that you want to add.
+6. Add the file contents of the changed files to the "snapshot" git uses to manage the state of the project, also known as the index:
+
+```bash
+git add insert-paths-of-changed-files-here
+```
+
+7. Store the contents of the index with a descriptive message.
+
+```bash
+git commit -m "Insert a short message of the changes made here"
+```
+
+8. Push the changes to the remote repository using
+
+```markdown
+git push origin branch-name-here
+```
+
+9. Submit a pull request to the **main** branch of the InvokeAI repository.
+10. Title the pull request with a short description of the changes made and the issue or bug number associated with your change. For example, you can title an issue like so "Added more log outputting to resolve #1234".
+11. In the description of the pull request, explain the changes that you made, any issues you think exist with the pull request you made, and any questions you have for the maintainer. It's OK if your pull request is not perfect (no pull request is), the reviewer will be able to help you fix any problems and improve it!
+12. Wait for the pull request to be reviewed by other collaborators.
+13. Make changes to the pull request if the reviewer(s) recommend them.
+14. Celebrate your success after your pull request is merged!
+
+If you’d like to learn more about contributing to Open Source projects, here is a [Getting Started Guide](https://opensource.com/article/19/7/create-pull-request-github). 
+
+## **Where can I go for help?**
+
+If you need help, you can ask questions in the [#dev-chat](https://discord.com/channels/1020123559063990373/1049495067846524939) channel of the Discord.

+
+For backend related work, please reach out to **@blessedcoolant**, **@lstein**, **@StAlKeR7779** or **@pyschedelicious**.
+
+## **What does the Code of Conduct mean for me?**
+
+Our [Code of Conduct](CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md)  means that you are responsible for treating everyone on the project with respect and courtesy regardless of their identity. If you are the victim of any inappropriate behavior or comments as described in our Code of Conduct, we are here for you and will do the best to ensure that the abuser is reprimanded appropriately, per our code.

+
+# InvokeAI Web UI
+
+- [InvokeAI Web UI](https://github.com/invoke-ai/InvokeAI/tree/main/invokeai/frontend/web/docs#invokeai-web-ui)
+    - [Stack](https://github.com/invoke-ai/InvokeAI/tree/main/invokeai/frontend/web/docs#stack)
+    - [Contributing](https://github.com/invoke-ai/InvokeAI/tree/main/invokeai/frontend/web/docs#contributing)

+        - [Production builds](https://github.com/invoke-ai/InvokeAI/tree/main/invokeai/frontend/web/docs#production-builds)
+
+The UI is a fairly straightforward Typescript React app, with the Unified Canvas being more complex.
+
+Code is located in `invokeai/frontend/web/` for review.
+
+## Stack
+
+State management is Redux via [Redux Toolkit](https://github.com/reduxjs/redux-toolkit). We lean heavily on RTK:
+
+- `createAsyncThunk` for HTTP requests
+- `createEntityAdapter` for fetching images and models
+- `createListenerMiddleware` for workflows
+
+The API client and associated types are generated from the OpenAPI schema. See API_CLIENT.md.
+
+Communication with server is a mix of HTTP and [socket.io](https://github.com/socketio/socket.io-client) (with a simple socket.io redux middleware to help).
+
+[Chakra-UI](https://github.com/chakra-ui/chakra-ui) & [Mantine](https://github.com/mantinedev/mantine) for components and styling.
+
+[Konva](https://github.com/konvajs/react-konva) for the canvas, but we are pushing the limits of what is feasible with it (and HTML canvas in general). We plan to rebuild it with [PixiJS](https://github.com/pixijs/pixijs) to take advantage of WebGL's improved raster handling.
+
+[Vite](https://vitejs.dev/) for bundling.
+
+Localisation is via [i18next](https://github.com/i18next/react-i18next), but translation happens on our [Weblate](https://hosted.weblate.org/engage/invokeai/) project. Only the English source strings should be changed on this repo.
+
+## Contributing
+
+Thanks for your interest in contributing to the InvokeAI Web UI!
+
+We encourage you to ping @psychedelicious and @blessedcoolant on [Discord](https://discord.gg/ZmtBAhwWhy) if you want to contribute, just to touch base and ensure your work doesn't conflict with anything else going on. The project is very active.
+
+### Dev Environment
+
+**Setup** 
+
+1. Install [node](https://nodejs.org/en/download/). You can confirm node is installed with:
+```bash
+node --version
+```
+2. Install [yarn classic](https://classic.yarnpkg.com/lang/en/) and confirm it is installed by running this:
+```bash
+npm install --global yarn
+yarn --version
+```
+
+From `invokeai/frontend/web/` run `yarn install` to get everything set up.
+
+Start everything in dev mode:
+1. Ensure your virtual environment is running
+2. Start the dev server: `yarn dev`
+3. Start the InvokeAI Nodes backend: `python scripts/invokeai-web.py # run from the repo root`
+4. Point your browser to the dev server address e.g. [http://localhost:5173/](http://localhost:5173/)
+
+### VSCode Remote Dev
+
+We've noticed an intermittent issue with the VSCode Remote Dev port forwarding. If you use this feature of VSCode, you may intermittently click the Invoke button and then get nothing until the request times out. Suggest disabling the IDE's port forwarding feature and doing it manually via SSH:
+
+`ssh -L 9090:localhost:9090 -L 5173:localhost:5173 user@host`
+
+### Production builds
+
+For a number of technical and logistical reasons, we need to commit UI build artefacts to the repo.
+
+If you submit a PR, there is a good chance we will ask you to include a separate commit with a build of the app.
+
+To build for production, run `yarn build`.

-## Using a Hugging Face Concept
 
-!!! warning "Authenticating to HuggingFace"
-
-    Some concepts require valid authentication to HuggingFace. Without it, they will not be downloaded
-    and will be silently ignored.
-
-    If you used an installer to install InvokeAI, you may have already set a HuggingFace token.
-    If you skipped this step, you can:
-
-    - run the InvokeAI configuration script again (if you used a manual installer): `invokeai-configure`
-    - set one of the `HUGGINGFACE_TOKEN` or `HUGGING_FACE_HUB_TOKEN` environment variables to contain your token
-
-    Finally, if you already used any HuggingFace library on your computer, you might already have a token
-    in your local cache. Check for a hidden `.huggingface` directory in your home folder. If it
-    contains a `token` file, then you are all set.
-
-
-Hugging Face TI concepts are downloaded and installed automatically as you
-require them. This requires your machine to be connected to the Internet. To
-find out what each concept is for, you can browse the
-[Hugging Face concepts library](https://huggingface.co/sd-concepts-library) and
-look at examples of what each concept produces.
-
-When you have an idea of a concept you wish to try, go to the command-line
-client (CLI) and type a `<` character and the beginning of the Hugging Face
-concept name you wish to load. Press ++tab++, and the CLI will show you all
-matching concepts. You can also type `<` and hit ++tab++ to get a listing of all
-~800 concepts, but be prepared to scroll up to see them all! If there is more
-than one match you can continue to type and ++tab++ until the concept is
-completed.
-
-!!! example
-
-    if you type in `<x` and hit ++tab++, you'll be prompted with the completions:
-
-    ```py
-    <xatu2>        <xatu>         <xbh>          <xi>           <xidiversity>  <xioboma>      <xuna>         <xyz>
-    ```
-
-    Now type `id` and press ++tab++. It will be autocompleted to `<xidiversity>`
-    because this is a unique match.
-
-    Finish your prompt and generate as usual. You may include multiple concept terms
-    in the prompt.
-
-If you have never used this concept before, you will see a message that the TI
-model is being downloaded and installed. After this, the concept will be saved
-locally (in the `models/sd-concepts-library` directory) for future use.
-
-Several steps happen during downloading and installation, including a scan of
-the file for malicious code. Should any errors occur, you will be warned and the
-concept will fail to load. Generation will then continue treating the trigger
-term as a normal string of characters (e.g. as literal `<ghibli-face>`).
-
-You can also use `<concept-names>` in the WebGUI's prompt textbox. There is no
-autocompletion at this time.
 
 ## Installing your Own TI Files
 
 You may install any number of `.pt` and `.bin` files simply by copying them into
-the `embeddings` directory of the InvokeAI runtime directory (usually `invokeai`
-in your home directory). You may create subdirectories in order to organize the
-files in any way you wish. Be careful not to overwrite one file with another.

+the `sd-1/embedding` folder. Be careful not to overwrite one file with another.
 For example, TI files generated by the Hugging Face toolkit share the named
-`learned_embedding.bin`. You can use subdirectories to keep them distinct.

+>> Current embedding manager terms: <HOI4-Leader>, <princess-knight>
 ```
+To use these when generating, simply type the `<` key in your prompt to open the Textual Inversion WebUI and 
+select the embedding you'd like to use. This UI has type-ahead support, so you can easily find supported embeddings.
 
-Note the `*` trigger term. This is a placeholder term that many early TI
-tutorials taught people to use rather than a more descriptive term.
-Unfortunately, if you have multiple TI files that all use this term, only the
-first one loaded will be triggered by use of the term.
+## Using LoRAs
 
-To avoid this problem, you can use the `merge_embeddings.py` script to merge two
-or more TI files together. If it encounters a collision of terms, the script
-will prompt you to select new terms that do not collide. See
-[Textual Inversion](TEXTUAL_INVERSION.md) for details.
+LoRA files are models that customize the output of Stable Diffusion
+image generation.  Larger than embeddings, but much smaller than full
+models, they augment SD with improved understanding of subjects and
+artistic styles.
 
-## Further Reading
+Unlike TI files, LoRAs do not introduce novel vocabulary into the
+model's known tokens. Instead, LoRAs augment the model's weights that
+are applied to generate imagery. LoRAs may be supplied with a
+"trigger" word that they have been explicitly trained on, or may
+simply apply their effect without being triggered.
+
+LoRAs are typically stored in .safetensors files, which are the most
+secure way to store and transmit these types of weights. You may
+install any number of `.safetensors` LoRA files simply by copying them
+into the `autoimport/lora` directory of the corresponding InvokeAI models
+directory (usually `invokeai` in your home directory).
+
+To use these when generating, open the LoRA menu item in the options
+panel, select the LoRAs you want to apply and ensure that they have
+the appropriate weight recommended by the model provider. Typically,
+most LoRAs perform best at a weight of .75-1.

+
+# :material-tune-variant: InvokeAI Configuration
+
+## Intro
+
+InvokeAI has numerous runtime settings which can be used to adjust
+many aspects of its operations, including the location of files and
+directories, memory usage, and performance. These settings can be
+viewed and customized in several ways:
+
+1. By editing settings in the `invokeai.yaml` file.
+2. By setting environment variables.
+3. On the command-line, when InvokeAI is launched.
+
+In addition, the most commonly changed settings are accessible
+graphically via the `invokeai-configure` script.
+
+### How the Configuration System Works
+
+When InvokeAI is launched, the very first thing it needs to do is to
+find its "root" directory, which contains its configuration files,
+installed models, its database of images, and the folder(s) of
+generated images themselves. In this document, the root directory will
+be referred to as ROOT.
+
+#### Finding the Root Directory
+
+To find its root directory, InvokeAI uses the following recipe:
+
+1. It first looks for the argument `--root <path>` on the command line
+it was launched from, and uses the indicated path if present.
+
+2. Next it looks for the environment variable INVOKEAI_ROOT, and uses
+the directory path found there if present.
+
+3. If neither of these are present, then InvokeAI looks for the
+folder containing the `.venv` Python virtual environment directory for
+the currently active environment. This directory is checked for files
+expected inside the InvokeAI root before it is used.
+
+4. Finally, InvokeAI looks for a directory in the current user's home
+directory named `invokeai`.
+
+#### Reading the InvokeAI Configuration File
+
+Once the root directory has been located, InvokeAI looks for a file
+named `ROOT/invokeai.yaml`, and if present reads configuration values
+from it. The top of this file looks like this:
+
+```
+InvokeAI:
+  Web Server:
+    host: localhost
+    port: 9090
+    allow_origins: []
+    allow_credentials: true
+    allow_methods:
+    - '*'
+    allow_headers:
+    - '*'
+  Features:
+    esrgan: true
+    internet_available: true
+    log_tokenization: false
+    patchmatch: true
+    restore: true
+...
+```
+
+This lines in this file are used to establish default values for
+Invoke's settings. In the above fragment, the Web Server's listening
+port is set to 9090 by the `port` setting.
+
+You can edit this file with a text editor such as "Notepad" (do not
+use Word or any other word processor). When editing, be careful to
+maintain the indentation, and do not add extraneous text, as syntax
+errors will prevent InvokeAI from launching. A basic guide to the
+format of YAML files can be found
+[here](https://circleci.com/blog/what-is-yaml-a-beginner-s-guide/).
+
+You can fix a broken `invokeai.yaml` by deleting it and running the
+configuration script again -- option [7] in the launcher, "Re-run the
+configure script".
+
+#### Reading Environment Variables
+
+Next InvokeAI looks for defined environment variables in the format
+`INVOKEAI_<setting_name>`, for example `INVOKEAI_port`. Environment
+variable values take precedence over configuration file variables. On
+a Macintosh system, for example, you could change the port that the
+web server listens on by setting the environment variable this way:
+
+```
+export INVOKEAI_port=8000
+invokeai-web
+```
+
+Please check out these
+[Macintosh](https://phoenixnap.com/kb/set-environment-variable-mac)
+and
+[Windows](https://phoenixnap.com/kb/windows-set-environment-variable)
+guides for setting temporary and permanent environment variables.
+
+#### Reading the Command Line
+
+Lastly, InvokeAI takes settings from the command line, which override
+everything else. The command-line settings have the same name as the
+corresponding configuration file settings, preceded by a `--`, for
+example `--port 8000`.
+
+If you are using the launcher (`invoke.sh` or `invoke.bat`) to launch
+InvokeAI, then just pass the command-line arguments to the launcher:
+
+```
+invoke.bat --port 8000 --host 0.0.0.0
+```
+
+The arguments will be applied when you select the web server option
+(and the other options as well).
+
+If, on the other hand, you prefer to launch InvokeAI directly from the
+command line, you would first activate the virtual environment (known
+as the "developer's console" in the launcher), and run `invokeai-web`:
+
+```
+> C:\Users\Fred\invokeai\.venv\scripts\activate
+(.venv) > invokeai-web --port 8000 --host 0.0.0.0
+```
+
+You can get a listing and brief instructions for each of the
+command-line options by giving the `--help` argument:
+
+```
+(.venv) > invokeai-web --help
+usage: InvokeAI [-h] [--host HOST] [--port PORT] [--allow_origins [ALLOW_ORIGINS ...]] [--allow_credentials | --no-allow_credentials] [--allow_methods [ALLOW_METHODS ...]]

+                [--patchmatch | --no-patchmatch] [--restore | --no-restore]

+
+## The Configuration Settings
+
+The configuration settings are divided into several distinct
+groups in `invokeia.yaml`:
+
+### Web Server
+
+| Setting  | Default Value  |  Description |
+|----------|----------------|--------------|
+| `host`     | `localhost`      | Name or IP address of the network interface that the web server will listen on  |
+| `port`     | `9090`           | Network port number that the web server will listen on  |
+| `allow_origins`  | `[]`       | A list of host names or IP addresses that are allowed to connect to the InvokeAI API in the format `['host1','host2',...]` |
+| `allow_credentials | `true`   | Require credentials for a foreign host to access the InvokeAI API (don't change this) |
+| `allow_methods` | `*`         | List of HTTP methods ("GET", "POST") that the web server is allowed to use when accessing the API  |
+| `allow_headers` | `*`         | List of HTTP headers that the web server will accept when accessing the API  |
+
+The documentation for InvokeAI's API can be accessed by browsing to the following URL: [http://localhost:9090/docs].
+
+### Features
+
+These configuration settings allow you to enable and disable various InvokeAI features:
+
+| Setting  | Default Value  |  Description |
+|----------|----------------|--------------|
+| `esrgan`     | `true`      | Activate the ESRGAN upscaling options|
+| `internet_available` | `true`     | When a resource is not available locally, try to fetch it via the internet |
+| `log_tokenization` | `false`      | Before each text2image generation, print a color-coded representation of the prompt to the console; this can help understand why a prompt is not working as expected |
+| `patchmatch` | `true`     | Activate the "patchmatch" algorithm for improved inpainting |
+| `restore`    | `true`     | Activate the facial restoration features (DEPRECATED; restoration features will be removed in 3.0.0) |
+
+### Memory/Performance
+
+These options tune InvokeAI's memory and performance characteristics.
+
+| Setting  | Default Value  |  Description |
+|----------|----------------|--------------|
+| `always_use_cpu`     | `false`      | Use the CPU to generate images, even if a GPU is available |
+| `free_gpu_mem`       | `false`      | Aggressively free up GPU memory after each operation; this will allow you to run in low-VRAM environments with some performance penalties |
+| `max_cache_size`       | `6`      | Amount of CPU RAM (in GB) to reserve for caching models in memory; more cache allows you to keep models in memory and switch among them quickly |
+| `max_vram_cache_size`  | `2.75`   | Amount of GPU VRAM (in GB) to reserve for caching models in VRAM; more cache speeds up generation but reduces the size of the images that can be generated. This can be set to zero to maximize the amount of memory available for generation. |
+| `precision`       | `auto`      | Floating point precision. One of `auto`, `float16` or `float32`. `float16` will consume half the memory of `float32` but produce slightly lower-quality images. The `auto` setting will guess the proper precision based on your video card and operating system |
+| `sequential_guidance`     | `false`      | Calculate guidance in serial rather than in parallel, lowering memory requirements at the cost of some performance loss |
+| `xformers_enabled`        | `true`      | If the x-formers memory-efficient attention module is installed, activate it for better memory usage and generation speed|
+| `tiled_decode`            | `false`     | If true, then during the VAE decoding phase the image will be decoded a section at a time, reducing memory consumption at the cost of a performance hit |
+
+### Paths
+
+These options set the paths of various directories and files used by
+InvokeAI. Relative paths are interpreted relative to INVOKEAI_ROOT, so
+if INVOKEAI_ROOT is `/home/fred/invokeai` and the path is
+`autoimport/main`, then the corresponding directory will be located at
+`/home/fred/invokeai/autoimport/main`.
+
+| Setting  | Default Value  |  Description |
+|----------|----------------|--------------|
+| `autoimport_dir` | `autoimport/main`     | At startup time, read and import any main model files found in this directory |
+| `lora_dir` | `autoimport/lora`     | At startup time, read and import any LoRA/LyCORIS models found in this directory |
+| `embedding_dir` | `autoimport/embedding`  | At startup time, read and import any textual inversion (embedding) models found in this directory |
+| `controlnet_dir` | `autoimport/controlnet`  | At startup time, read and import any ControlNet models found in this directory |
+| `conf_path` | `configs/models.yaml`  | Location of the `models.yaml` model configuration file |
+| `models_dir` | `models`  | Location of the directory containing models installed by InvokeAI's model manager |
+| `legacy_conf_dir` | `configs/stable-diffusion`  | Location of the directory containing the .yaml configuration files for legacy checkpoint models |
+| `db_dir` | `databases`  | Location of the directory containing InvokeAI's image, schema and session database |
+| `outdir` | `outputs`  | Location of the directory in which the gallery of generated and uploaded images will be stored |
+| `use_memory_db` | `false`  | Keep database information in memory rather than on disk; this will not preserve image gallery information across restarts |
+
+Note that the autoimport directories will be searched recursively,
+allowing you to organize the models into folders and subfolders in any
+way you wish. In addition, while we have split up autoimport
+directories by the type of model they contain, this isn't
+necessary. You can combine different model types in the same folder
+and InvokeAI will figure out what they are. So you can easily use just
+one autoimport directory by commenting out the unneeded paths:
+
+```
+Paths:
+  autoimport_dir: autoimport
+#  lora_dir: null
+#  embedding_dir: null
+#  controlnet_dir: null
+```
+
+### Logging
+
+These settings control the information, warning, and debugging
+messages printed to the console log while InvokeAI is running:
+
+| Setting  | Default Value  |  Description |
+|----------|----------------|--------------|
+| `log_handlers` | `console` | This controls where log messages are sent, and can be a list of one or more destinations. Values include `console`, `file`, `syslog` and `http`. These are described in more detail below |
+| `log_format` | `color` | This controls the formatting of the log messages. Values are `plain`, `color`, `legacy` and `syslog` |
+| `log_level`  | `debug` | This filters messages according to the level of severity and can be one of `debug`, `info`, `warning`, `error` and `critical`. For example, setting to `warning` will display all messages at the warning level or higher, but won't display "debug" or "info" messages |
+
+Several different log handler destinations are available, and multiple destinations are supported by providing a list:
+
+```
+  log_handlers:
+     - console
+     - syslog=localhost
+     - file=/var/log/invokeai.log
+```
+
+* `console` is the default. It prints log messages to the command-line window from which InvokeAI was launched.
+
+* `syslog` is only available on Linux and Macintosh systems. It uses
+  the operating system's "syslog" facility to write log file entries
+  locally or to a remote logging machine. `syslog` offers a variety
+  of configuration options:
+
+```
+  syslog=/dev/log`      - log to the /dev/log device
+  syslog=localhost`     - log to the network logger running on the local machine
+  syslog=localhost:512` - same as above, but using a non-standard port
+  syslog=fredserver,facility=LOG_USER,socktype=SOCK_DRAM`
+                        - Log to LAN-connected server "fredserver" using the facility LOG_USER and datagram packets.
+```
+
+* `http` can be used to log to a remote web server. The server must be
+  properly configured to receive and act on log messages. The option
+  accepts the URL to the web server, and a `method` argument
+  indicating whether the message should be submitted using the GET or
+  POST method.
+
+```
+ http=http://my.server/path/to/logger,method=POST
+```
+
+The `log_format` option provides several alternative formats:
+
+* `color`    - default format providing time, date and a message, using text colors to distinguish different log severities
+* `plain`    - same as above, but monochrome text only
+* `syslog`   - the log level and error message only, allowing the syslog system to attach the time and date
+* `legacy`   - a format similar to the one used by the legacy 2.3 InvokeAI releases.

+
+## ControlNet
+
+ControlNet
+
+ControlNet is a powerful set of features developed by the open-source
+community (notably, Stanford researcher
+[**@ilyasviel**](https://github.com/lllyasviel)) that allows you to
+apply a secondary neural network model to your image generation
+process in Invoke.
+
+With ControlNet, you can get more control over the output of your
+image generation, providing you with a way to direct the network
+towards generating images that better fit your desired style or
+outcome.
+
+
+### How it works
+
+ControlNet works by analyzing an input image, pre-processing that
+image to identify relevant information that can be interpreted by each
+specific ControlNet model, and then inserting that control information
+into the generation process. This can be used to adjust the style,
+composition, or other aspects of the image to better achieve a
+specific result.
+
+
+### Models
+
+InvokeAI provides access to a series of ControlNet models that provide
+different effects or styles in your generated images.  Currently
+InvokeAI only supports "diffuser" style ControlNet models. These are
+folders that contain the files `config.json` and/or
+`diffusion_pytorch_model.safetensors` and
+`diffusion_pytorch_model.fp16.safetensors`. The name of the folder is
+the name of the model.
+
+***InvokeAI does not currently support checkpoint-format
+ControlNets. These come in the form of a single file with the
+extension `.safetensors`.***
+
+Diffuser-style ControlNet models are available at HuggingFace
+(http://huggingface.co) and accessed via their repo IDs (identifiers
+in the format "author/modelname"). The easiest way to install them is
+to use the InvokeAI model installer application. Use the
+`invoke.sh`/`invoke.bat` launcher to select item [5] and then navigate
+to the CONTROLNETS section. Select the models you wish to install and
+press "APPLY CHANGES". You may also enter additional HuggingFace
+repo_ids in the "Additional models" textbox:
+
+![Model Installer -
+Controlnetl](../assets/installing-models/model-installer-controlnet.png){:width="640px"}
+
+Command-line users can launch the model installer using the command
+`invokeai-model-install`.
+
+_Be aware that some ControlNet models require additional code
+functionality in order to work properly, so just installing a
+third-party ControlNet model may not have the desired effect._ Please
+read and follow the documentation for installing a third party model
+not currently included among InvokeAI's default list.
+
+The models currently supported include:
+
+**Canny**:
+
+When the Canny model is used in ControlNet, Invoke will attempt to generate images that match the edges detected. 
+
+Canny edge detection works by detecting the edges in an image by looking for abrupt changes in intensity. It is known for its ability to detect edges accurately while reducing noise and false edges, and the preprocessor can identify more information by decreasing the thresholds.
+
+**M-LSD**: 
+
+M-LSD is another edge detection algorithm used in ControlNet. It stands for Multi-Scale Line Segment Detector. 
+
+It detects straight line segments in an image by analyzing the local structure of the image at multiple scales.  It can be useful for architectural imagery, or anything where straight-line structural information is needed for the resulting output. 
+
+**Lineart**: 
+
+The Lineart model in ControlNet generates line drawings from an input image. The resulting pre-processed image is a simplified version of the original, with only the outlines of objects visible.The Lineart model in ControlNet is known for its ability to accurately capture the contours of the objects in an input sketch. 
+
+**Lineart Anime**: 
+
+A variant of the Lineart model that generates line drawings with a distinct style inspired by anime and manga art styles.
+
+**Depth**: 
+A model that generates depth maps of images, allowing you to create more realistic 3D models or to simulate depth effects in post-processing.
+
+**Normal Map (BAE):** 
+A model that generates normal maps from input images, allowing for more realistic lighting effects in 3D rendering.
+		
+**Image Segmentation**: 
+A model that divides input images into segments or regions, each of which corresponds to a different object or part of the image. (More details coming soon)
+
+
+**Openpose**: 
+The OpenPose control model allows for the identification of the general pose of a character by pre-processing an existing image with a clear human structure. With advanced options, Openpose can also detect the face or hands in the image. 
+
+**Mediapipe Face**:
+
+The MediaPipe Face identification processor is able to clearly identify facial features in order to capture vivid expressions of human faces.
+
+**Tile (experimental)**:
+
+The Tile model fills out details in the image to match the image, rather than the prompt. The Tile Model is a versatile tool that offers a range of functionalities. Its primary capabilities can be boiled down to two main behaviors:
+
+- It can reinterpret specific details within an image and create fresh, new elements.
+- It has the ability to disregard global instructions if there's a discrepancy between them and the local context or specific parts of the image. In such cases, it uses the local context to guide the process.
+
+The Tile Model can be a powerful tool in your arsenal for enhancing image quality and details. If there are undesirable elements in your images, such as blurriness caused by resizing, this model can effectively eliminate these issues, resulting in cleaner, crisper images. Moreover, it can generate and add refined details to your images, improving their overall quality and appeal. 
+
+**Pix2Pix (experimental)**
+
+With Pix2Pix, you can input an image into the controlnet, and then "instruct" the model to change it using your prompt. For example, you can say "Make it winter" to add more wintry elements to a scene.
+
+**Inpaint**: Coming Soon - Currently this model is available but not functional on the Canvas. An upcoming release will provide additional capabilities for using this model when inpainting.
+
+Each of these models can be adjusted and combined with other ControlNet models to achieve different results, giving you even more control over your image generation process.
+
+
+## Using ControlNet
+
+To use ControlNet, you can simply select the desired model and adjust both the ControlNet and Pre-processor settings to achieve the desired result. You can also use multiple ControlNet models at the same time, allowing you to achieve even more complex effects or styles in your generated images.
+
+
+Each ControlNet has two settings that are applied to the ControlNet.
+
+Weight - Strength of the Controlnet model applied to the generation for the section, defined by start/end.
+
+Start/End  - 0 represents the start of the generation, 1 represents the end. The Start/end setting controls what steps during the generation process have the ControlNet applied.
+
+Additionally, each ControlNet section can be expanded in order to manipulate settings for the image pre-processor that adjusts your uploaded image before using it in when you Invoke.

+InvokeAI provides an "img2img" feature that lets you seed your
+creations with an initial drawing or photo. This is a really cool
+feature that tells stable diffusion to build the prompt on top of the
+image you provide, preserving the original's basic shape and layout.
 
-See the [WebUI Guide](WEB.md) for a walkthrough of the img2img feature
-in the InvokeAI web server. This document describes how to use img2img
-in the command-line tool.
-
-## Basic Usage
-
-Launch the command-line client by launching `invoke.sh`/`invoke.bat`
-and choosing option (1). Alternative, activate the InvokeAI
-environment and issue the command `invokeai`.
-
-Once the `invoke> ` prompt appears, you can start an img2img render by
-pointing to a seed file with the `-I` option as shown here:
-
-!!! example ""
-
-    ```commandline
-    tree on a hill with a river, nature photograph, national geographic -I./test-pictures/tree-and-river-sketch.png -f 0.85

-
-The `--init_img` (`-I`) option gives the path to the seed picture. `--strength`
-(`-f`) controls how much the original will be modified, ranging from `0.0` (keep
-the original intact), to `1.0` (ignore the original completely). The default is
-`0.75`, and ranges from `0.25-0.90` give interesting results. Other relevant
-options include `-C` (classification free guidance scale), and `-s` (steps).
-Unlike `txt2img`, adding steps will continuously change the resulting image and
-it will not converge.
-
-You may also pass a `-v<variation_amount>` option to generate `-n<iterations>`
-count variants on the original image. This is done by passing the first
-generated image back into img2img the requested number of times. It generates
-interesting variants.
-
-Note that the prompt makes a big difference. For example, this slight variation
-on the prompt produces a very different image:

-<caption markdown>photograph of a tree on a hill with a river</caption>
-</figure>
-
-!!! tip
-
-    When designing prompts, think about how the images scraped from the internet were
-    captioned. Very few photographs will be labeled "photograph" or "photorealistic."
-    They will, however, be captioned with the publication, photographer, camera model,
-    or film settings.
-
-If the initial image contains transparent regions, then Stable Diffusion will
-only draw within the transparent regions, a process called
-[`inpainting`](./INPAINTING.md#creating-transparent-regions-for-inpainting).
-However, for this to work correctly, the color information underneath the
-transparent needs to be preserved, not erased.
-
-!!! warning "**IMPORTANT ISSUE** "
-
-    `img2img` does not work properly on initial images smaller
-    than 512x512. Please scale your image to at least 512x512 before using it.
-    Larger images are not a problem, but may run out of VRAM on your GPU card. To
-    fix this, use the --fit option, which downscales the initial image to fit within

+# :material-image-off: Controlling Logging
+
+## Controlling How InvokeAI Logs Status Messages
+
+InvokeAI logs status messages using a configurable logging system. You
+can log to the terminal window, to a designated file on the local
+machine, to the syslog facility on a Linux or Mac, or to a properly
+configured web server. You can configure several logs at the same
+time, and control the level of message logged and the logging format
+(to a limited extent).
+
+Three command-line options control logging:
+
+### `--log_handlers <handler1> <handler2> ...`
+
+This option activates one or more log handlers. Options are "console",
+"file", "syslog" and "http". To specify more than one, separate them
+by spaces:
+
+```bash
+invokeai-web --log_handlers console syslog=/dev/log file=C:\Users\fred\invokeai.log
+```
+
+The format of these options is described below.
+
+### `--log_format {plain|color|legacy|syslog}`
+
+This controls the format of log messages written to the console. Only
+the "console" log handler is currently affected by this setting.
+
+* "plain" provides formatted messages like this:
+
+```bash
+
+[2023-05-24 23:18:2[2023-05-24 23:18:50,352]::[InvokeAI]::DEBUG --> this is a debug message
+[2023-05-24 23:18:50,352]::[InvokeAI]::INFO --> this is an informational messages
+[2023-05-24 23:18:50,352]::[InvokeAI]::WARNING --> this is a warning
+[2023-05-24 23:18:50,352]::[InvokeAI]::ERROR --> this is an error
+[2023-05-24 23:18:50,352]::[InvokeAI]::CRITICAL --> this is a critical error
+```
+
+* "color" produces similar output, but the text will be color coded to
+indicate the severity of the message.
+
+* "legacy" produces output similar to InvokeAI versions 2.3 and earlier:
+
+```bash
+### this is a critical error
+*** this is an error
+** this is a warning
+>> this is an informational messages
+   | this is a debug message
+```
+
+* "syslog" produces messages suitable for syslog entries:
+
+```bash
+InvokeAI [2691178] <CRITICAL> this is a critical error
+InvokeAI [2691178] <ERROR> this is an error
+InvokeAI [2691178] <WARNING> this is a warning
+InvokeAI [2691178] <INFO> this is an informational messages
+InvokeAI [2691178] <DEBUG> this is a debug message
+```
+
+(note that the date, time and hostname will be added by the syslog
+system)
+
+### `--log_level {debug|info|warning|error|critical}`
+
+Providing this command-line option will cause only messages at the
+specified level or above to be emitted.
+
+## Console logging
+
+When "console" is provided to `--log_handlers`, messages will be
+written to the command line window in which InvokeAI was launched. By
+default, the color formatter will be used unless overridden by
+`--log_format`.
+
+## File logging
+
+When "file" is provided to `--log_handlers`, entries will be written
+to the file indicated in the path argument. By default, the "plain"
+format will be used:
+
+```bash
+invokeai-web --log_handlers file=/var/log/invokeai.log
+```
+
+## Syslog logging
+
+When "syslog" is requested, entries will be sent to the syslog
+system. There are a variety of ways to control where the log message
+is sent:
+
+* Send to the local machine using the `/dev/log` socket:
+
+```
+invokeai-web --log_handlers syslog=/dev/log
+```
+
+* Send to the local machine using a UDP message:
+
+```
+invokeai-web --log_handlers syslog=localhost
+```
+
+* Send to the local machine using a UDP message on a nonstandard
+  port:
+
+```
+invokeai-web --log_handlers syslog=localhost:512
+```
+
+* Send to a remote machine named "loghost" on the local LAN using
+  facility LOG_USER and UDP packets:
+
+```
+invokeai-web --log_handlers syslog=loghost,facility=LOG_USER,socktype=SOCK_DGRAM
+```
+
+This can be abbreviated `syslog=loghost`, as LOG_USER and SOCK_DGRAM
+are defaults.
+
+* Send to a remote machine named "loghost" using the facility LOCAL0
+  and using a TCP socket:
+
+```
+invokeai-web --log_handlers syslog=loghost,facility=LOG_LOCAL0,socktype=SOCK_STREAM
+```
+
+If no arguments are specified (just a bare "syslog"), then the logging
+system will look for a UNIX socket named `/dev/log`, and if not found
+try to send a UDP message to `localhost`. The Macintosh OS used to
+support logging to a socket named `/var/run/syslog`, but this feature
+has since been disabled.
+
+## Web logging
+
+If you have access to a web server that is configured to log messages
+when a particular URL is requested, you can log using the "http"
+method:
+
+```
+invokeai-web --log_handlers http=http://my.server/path/to/logger,method=POST
+```
+
+The optional [,method=] part can be used to specify whether the URL
+accepts GET (default) or POST messages.
+
+Currently password authentication and SSL are not supported.
+
+## Using the configuration file
+
+You can set and forget logging options by adding a "Logging" section
+to `invokeai.yaml`:
+
+```
+InvokeAI:
+  [... other settings...]
+  Logging:
+    log_handlers:
+       - console
+       - syslog=/dev/log
+    log_level: info
+    log_format: color
+```

+# Nodes Editor (Experimental)
+
+🚨
+*The node editor is experimental. We've made it accessible because we use it to develop the application, but we have not addressed the many known rough edges. It's very easy to shoot yourself in the foot, and we cannot offer support for it until it sees full release (ETA v3.1). Everything is subject to change without warning.* 
+🚨
+
+The nodes editor is a blank canvas allowing for the use of individual functions and image transformations to control the image generation workflow. The node processing flow is usually done from left (inputs) to right (outputs), though linearity can become abstracted the more complex the node graph becomes. Nodes inputs and outputs are connected by dragging connectors from node to node.
+
+To better understand how nodes are used, think of how an electric power bar works. It takes in one input (electricity from a wall outlet) and passes it to multiple devices through multiple outputs. Similarly, a node could have multiple inputs and outputs functioning at the same (or different) time, but all node outputs pass information onward like a power bar passes electricity. Not all outputs are compatible with all inputs, however - Each node has different constraints on how it is expecting to input/output information. In general, node outputs are colour-coded to match compatible inputs of other nodes.
+
+## Anatomy of a Node
+
+Individual nodes are made up of the following:
+
+- Inputs: Edge points on the left side of the node window where you connect outputs from other nodes.
+- Outputs: Edge points on the right side of the node window where you connect to inputs on other nodes.
+- Options: Various options which are either manually configured, or overridden by connecting an output from another node to the input.
+
+## Diffusion Overview
+
+Taking the time to understand the diffusion process will help you to understand how to set up your nodes in the nodes editor. 
+
+There are two main spaces Stable Diffusion works in: image space and latent space.
+
+Image space represents images in pixel form that you look at. Latent space represents compressed inputs. It’s in latent space that Stable Diffusion processes images. A VAE (Variational Auto Encoder) is responsible for compressing and encoding inputs into latent space, as well as decoding outputs back into image space.
+
+When you generate an image using text-to-image, multiple steps occur in latent space:
+1. Random noise is generated at the chosen height and width. The noise’s characteristics are dictated by the chosen (or not chosen) seed. This noise tensor is passed into latent space. We’ll call this noise A.
+1. Using a model’s U-Net, a noise predictor examines noise A, and the words tokenized by CLIP from your prompt (conditioning). It generates its own noise tensor to predict what the final image might look like in latent space. We’ll call this noise B.
+1. Noise B is subtracted from noise A in an attempt to create a final latent image indicative of the inputs. This step is repeated for the number of sampler steps chosen.
+1. The VAE decodes the final latent image from latent space into image space.
+
+image-to-image is a similar process, with only step 1 being different:
+1. The input image is decoded from image space into latent space by the VAE. Noise is then added to the input latent image. Denoising Strength dictates how much noise is added, 0 being none, and 1 being all-encompassing. We’ll call this noise A. The process is then the same as steps 2-4 in the text-to-image explanation above. 
+
+Furthermore, a model provides the CLIP prompt tokenizer, the VAE, and a U-Net (where noise prediction occurs given a prompt and initial noise tensor).
+
+A noise scheduler (eg. DPM++ 2M Karras) schedules the subtraction of noise from the latent image across the sampler steps chosen (step 3 above). Less noise is usually subtracted at higher sampler steps.

+## Node Grouping Concepts
+
+There are several node grouping concepts that can be examined with a narrow focus. These (and other) groupings can be pieced together to make up functional graph setups, and are important to understanding how groups of nodes work together as part of a whole. Note that the screenshots below aren't examples of complete functioning node graphs (see Examples).
+
+### Noise
+
+As described, an initial noise tensor is necessary for the latent diffusion process. As a result, all non-image *ToLatents nodes require a noise node input.  
+
+![groupsnoise](../assets/nodes/groupsnoise.png)
+
+### Conditioning
+
+As described, conditioning is necessary for the latent diffusion process, whether empty or not. As a result, all non-image *ToLatents nodes require positive and negative conditioning inputs. Conditioning is reliant on a CLIP tokenizer provided by the Model Loader node.
+
+![groupsconditioning](../assets/nodes/groupsconditioning.png)
+
+### Image Space & VAE
+
+The ImageToLatents node doesn't require a noise node input, but requires a VAE input to convert the image from image space into latent space. In reverse, the LatentsToImage node requires a VAE input to convert from latent space back into image space.
+
+![groupsimgvae](../assets/nodes/groupsimgvae.png)
+
+### Defined & Random Seeds
+
+It is common to want to use both the same seed (for continuity) and random seeds (for variance). To define a seed, simply enter it into the 'Seed' field on a noise node. Conversely, the RandomInt node generates a random integer between 'Low' and 'High', and can be used as input to the 'Seed' edge point on a noise node to randomize your seed.
+
+![groupsrandseed](../assets/nodes/groupsrandseed.png)
+
+### Control
+
+Control means to guide the diffusion process to adhere to a defined input or structure. Control can be provided as input to non-image *ToLatents nodes from ControlNet nodes. ControlNet nodes usually require an image processor which converts an input image for use with ControlNet.
+
+![groupscontrol](../assets/nodes/groupscontrol.png)
+
+### LoRA
+
+The Lora Loader node lets you load a LoRA (say that ten times fast) and pass it as output to both the Prompt (Compel) and non-image *ToLatents nodes. A model's CLIP tokenizer is passed through the LoRA into Prompt (Compel), where it affects conditioning. A model's U-Net is also passed through the LoRA into a non-image *ToLatents node, where it affects noise prediction.
+
+![groupslora](../assets/nodes/groupslora.png)
+
+### Scaling
+
+Use the ImageScale, ScaleLatents, and Upscale nodes to upscale images and/or latent images. The chosen method differs across contexts. However, be aware that latents are already noisy and compressed at their original resolution; scaling an image could produce more detailed results.
+
+![groupsallscale](../assets/nodes/groupsallscale.png)
+
+### Iteration + Multiple Images as Input
+
+Iteration is a common concept in any processing, and means to repeat a process with given input. In nodes, you're able to use the Iterate node to iterate through collections usually gathered by the Collect node. The Iterate node has many potential uses, from processing a collection of images one after another, to varying seeds across multiple image generations and more. This screenshot demonstrates how to collect several images and pass them out one at a time.
+
+![groupsiterate](../assets/nodes/groupsiterate.png)
+
+### Multiple Image Generation + Random Seeds
+
+Multiple image generation in the node editor is done using the RandomRange node. In this case, the 'Size' field represents the number of images to generate. As RandomRange produces a collection of integers, we need to add the Iterate node to iterate through the collection. 
+
+To control seeds across generations takes some care. The first row in the screenshot will generate multiple images with different seeds, but using the same RandomRange parameters across invocations will result in the same group of random seeds being used across the images, producing repeatable results. In the second row, adding the RandomInt node as input to RandomRange's 'Seed' edge point will ensure that seeds are varied across all images across invocations, producing varied results.

+
+## Examples
+
+With our knowledge of node grouping and the diffusion process, let’s break down some basic graphs in the nodes editor. Note that a node's options can be overridden by inputs from other nodes. These examples aren't strict rules to follow and only demonstrate some basic configurations.
+
+### Basic text-to-image Node Graph
+
+![nodest2i](../assets/nodes/nodest2i.png)
+
+- Model Loader: A necessity to generating images (as we’ve read above). We choose our model from the dropdown. It outputs a U-Net, CLIP tokenizer, and VAE.
+- Prompt (Compel): Another necessity. Two prompt nodes are created. One will output positive conditioning (what you want, ‘dog’), one will output negative (what you don’t want, ‘cat’). They both input the CLIP tokenizer that the Model Loader node outputs.
+- Noise: Consider this noise A from step one of the text-to-image explanation above. Choose a seed number, width, and height.
+- TextToLatents: This node takes many inputs for converting and processing text & noise from image space into latent space, hence the name TextTo**Latents**. In this setup, it inputs positive and negative conditioning from the prompt nodes for processing (step 2 above). It inputs noise from the noise node for processing (steps 2 & 3 above). Lastly, it inputs a U-Net from the Model Loader node for processing (step 2 above). It outputs latents for use in the next LatentsToImage node. Choose number of sampler steps, CFG scale, and scheduler.
+- LatentsToImage: This node takes in processed latents from the TextToLatents node, and the model’s VAE from the Model Loader node which is responsible for decoding latents back into the image space, hence the name LatentsTo**Image**. This node is the last stop, and once the image is decoded, it is saved to the gallery.
+
+### Basic image-to-image Node Graph
+
+![nodesi2i](../assets/nodes/nodesi2i.png)
+
+- Model Loader: Choose a model from the dropdown.
+- Prompt (Compel): Two prompt nodes. One positive (dog), one negative (dog). Same CLIP inputs from the Model Loader node as before.
+- ImageToLatents: Upload a source image directly in the node window, via drag'n'drop from the gallery, or passed in as input. The ImageToLatents node inputs the VAE from the Model Loader node to decode the chosen image from image space into latent space, hence the name ImageTo**Latents**. It outputs latents for use in the next LatentsToLatents node. It also outputs the source image's width and height for use in the next Noise node if the final image is to be the same dimensions as the source image.
+- Noise: A noise tensor is created with the width and height of the source image, and connected to the next LatentsToLatents node. Notice the width and height fields are overridden by the input from the ImageToLatents width and height outputs.
+- LatentsToLatents: The inputs and options are nearly identical to TextToLatents, except that LatentsToLatents also takes latents as an input. Considering our source image is already converted to latents in the last ImageToLatents node, and text + noise are no longer the only inputs to process, we use the LatentsToLatents node. 
+- LatentsToImage: Like previously, the LatentsToImage node will use the VAE from the Model Loader as input to decode the latents from LatentsToLatents into image space, and save it to the gallery.
+
+### Basic ControlNet Node Graph
+
+![nodescontrol](../assets/nodes/nodescontrol.png)
+
+- Model Loader
+- Prompt (Compel)
+- Noise: Width and height of the CannyImageProcessor ControlNet image is passed in to set the dimensions of the noise passed to TextToLatents.
+- CannyImageProcessor: The CannyImageProcessor node is used to process the source image being used as a ControlNet. Each ControlNet processor node applies control in different ways, and has some different options to configure. Width and height are passed to noise, as mentioned. The processed ControlNet image is output to the ControlNet node.
+- ControlNet: Select the type of control model. In this case, canny is chosen as the CannyImageProcessor was used to generate the ControlNet image. Configure the control node options, and pass the control output to TextToLatents.
+- TextToLatents: Similar to the basic text-to-image example, except ControlNet is passed to the control input edge point.
+- LatentsToImage

-## **Thresholding and Perlin Noise Initialization Options**
-
-Two new options are the thresholding (`--threshold`) and the perlin noise initialization (`--perlin`) options. Thresholding limits the range of the latent values during optimization, which helps combat oversaturation with higher CFG scale values. Perlin noise initialization starts with a percentage (a value ranging from 0 to 1) of perlin noise mixed into the initial noise. Both features allow for more variations and options in the course of generating images.
-
-For better intuition into what these options do in practice:
-
-![here is a graphic demonstrating them both](../assets/truncation_comparison.jpg)
-
-In generating this graphic, perlin noise at initialization was programmatically varied going across on the diagram by values 0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0; and the threshold was varied going down from
-0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 20, 100. The other options are fixed, so the initial prompt is as follows (no thresholding or perlin noise):
-
-```bash
-invoke> "a portrait of a beautiful young lady" -S 1950357039 -s 100 -C 20 -A k_euler_a --threshold 0 --perlin 0
-```
-
-Here's an example of another prompt used when setting the threshold to 5 and perlin noise to 0.2:
-
-```bash
-invoke> "a portrait of a beautiful young lady" -S 1950357039 -s 100 -C 20 -A k_euler_a --threshold 5 --perlin 0.2
-```
-
-!!! note
-
-    currently the thresholding feature is only implemented for the k-diffusion style samplers, and empirically appears to work best with `k_euler_a` and `k_dpm_2_a`. Using 0 disables thresholding. Using 0 for perlin noise disables using perlin noise for initialization. Finally, using 1 for perlin noise uses only perlin noise for initialization.

 ### Face Restoration
 
-`-G : <facetool_strength>`
+InvokeAI offers alternative two face restoration algorithms,
+[GFPGAN](https://github.com/TencentARC/GFPGAN) and
+[CodeFormer](https://huggingface.co/spaces/sczhou/CodeFormer). These
+algorithms improve the appearance of faces, particularly eyes and
+mouths. Issues with faces are less common with the latest set of
+Stable Diffusion models than with the original 1.4 release, but the
+restoration algorithms can still make a noticeable improvement in
+certain cases. You can also apply restoration to old photographs you
+upload.
 
-This prompt argument controls the strength of the face restoration that is being
-applied. Similar to upscaling, values between `0.5 to 0.8` are recommended.
+To access face restoration, click the "smiley face" icon in the
+toolbar above the InvokeAI image panel. You will be presented with a
+dialog that offers a choice between the two algorithm and sliders that
+allow you to adjust their parameters. Alternatively, you may open the
+left-hand accordion panel labeled "Face Restoration" and have the
+restoration algorithm of your choice applied to generated images
+automatically.
 
-You can use either one or both without any conflicts. In cases where you use
-both, the image will be first upscaled and then the face restoration process
-will be executed to ensure you get the highest quality facial features.
 
-`--save_orig`
+Like upscaling, there are a number of parameters that adjust the face
+restoration output. GFPGAN has a single parameter, `strength`, which
+controls how much the algorithm is allowed to adjust the
+image. CodeFormer has two parameters, `strength`, and `fidelity`,
+which together control the quality of the output image as described in
+the [CodeFormer project
+page](https://shangchenzhou.com/projects/CodeFormer/). Default values
+are 0.75 for both parameters, which achieves a reasonable balance
+between changing the image too much and not enough.

-modified. If you want to save the original Stable Diffusion generation, you can
-use the `-save_orig` prompt argument to save the original unaffected version

-[model file](https://github.com/sczhou/CodeFormer/releases/download/v0.1.0/codeformer.pth)
-and saving it to `ldm/invoke/restoration/codeformer/weights` folder.
-
-You can use `-ft` prompt argument to swap between CodeFormer and the default
-GFPGAN. The above mentioned `-G` prompt argument will allow you to control the
-strength of the restoration effect.
-
-### CodeFormer Usage
-
-The following command will perform face restoration with CodeFormer instead of
-the default gfpgan.
-
-`<prompt> -G 0.8 -ft codeformer`
-
-### Other Options
-
-- `-cf` - cf or CodeFormer Fidelity takes values between `0` and `1`. 0 produces
-  high quality results but low accuracy and 1 produces lower quality results but
-  higher accuacy to your original face.
-
-The following command will perform face restoration with CodeFormer. CodeFormer
-will output a result that is closely matching to the input face.
-
-`<prompt> -G 1.0 -ft codeformer -cf 0.9`
-
-The following command will perform face restoration with CodeFormer. CodeFormer
-will output a result that is the best restoration possible. This may deviate
-slightly from the original face. This is an excellent option to use in
-situations when there is very little facial data to work with.
-
-`<prompt> -G 1.0 -ft codeformer -cf 0.1`
-
-## Fixing Previously-Generated Images
-
-It is easy to apply face restoration and/or upscaling to any
-previously-generated file. Just use the syntax
-`!fix path/to/file.png <options>`. For example, to apply GFPGAN at strength 0.8
-and upscale 2X for a file named `./outputs/img-samples/000044.2945021133.png`,
-just run:
-
-```bash
-invoke> !fix ./outputs/img-samples/000044.2945021133.png -G 0.8 -U 2
-```
-
-A new file named `000044.2945021133.fixed.png` will be created in the output
-directory. Note that the `!fix` command does not replace the original file,
-unlike the behavior at generate time.
-
 ## How to disable
 
 If, for some reason, you do not wish to load the GFPGAN and/or ESRGAN libraries,
 you can disable them on the invoke.py command line with the `--no_restore` and
-`--no_upscale` options, respectively.
+`--no_esrgan` options, respectively.

-## **Reading Prompts from a File**
-
-You can automate `invoke.py` by providing a text file with the prompts you want
-to run, one line per prompt. The text file must be composed with a text editor
-(e.g. Notepad) and not a word processor. Each line should look like what you
-would type at the invoke> prompt:
-
-```bash
-"a beautiful sunny day in the park, children playing" -n4 -C10
-"stormy weather on a mountain top, goats grazing" -s100
-"innovative packaging for a squid's dinner" -S137038382
-```
-
-Then pass this file's name to `invoke.py` when you invoke it:
-
-```bash
-python scripts/invoke.py --from_file "/path/to/prompts.txt"
-```
-
-You may also read a series of prompts from standard input by providing
-a filename of `-`. For example, here is a python script that creates a
-matrix of prompts, each one varying slightly:
-
-```bash
-#!/usr/bin/env python
-
-adjectives = ['sunny','rainy','overcast']
-samplers = ['k_lms','k_euler_a','k_heun']
-cfg = [7.5, 9, 11]
-
-for adj in adjectives:
-    for samp in samplers:
-        for cg in cfg:
-            print(f'a {adj} day -A{samp} -C{cg}')
-```
-
-Its output looks like this (abbreviated):
-
-```bash
-a sunny day -Aklms -C7.5
-a sunny day -Aklms -C9
-a sunny day -Aklms -C11
-a sunny day -Ak_euler_a -C7.5
-a sunny day -Ak_euler_a -C9
-...
-a overcast day -Ak_heun -C9
-a overcast day -Ak_heun -C11
-```
-
-To feed it to invoke.py, pass the filename of "-"
-
-```bash
-python matrix.py | python scripts/invoke.py --from_file -
-```
-
-When the script is finished, each of the 27 combinations
-of adjective, sampler and CFG will be executed.
-
-The command-line interface provides `!fetch` and `!replay` commands
-which allow you to read the prompts from a single previously-generated
-image or a whole directory of them, write the prompts to a file, and
-then replay them. Or you can create your own file of prompts and feed
-them to the command-line client from within an interactive session.

+## Dynamic Prompts
+
+Dynamic Prompts are a powerful feature designed to produce a variety of prompts based on user-defined options. Using a special syntax, you can construct a prompt with multiple possibilities, and the system will automatically generate a series of permutations based on your settings. This is extremely beneficial for ideation, exploring various scenarios, or testing different concepts swiftly and efficiently.
+
+### Structure of a Dynamic Prompt
+
+A Dynamic Prompt comprises of regular text, supplemented with alternatives enclosed within curly braces {} and separated by a vertical bar |. For example: {option1|option2|option3}. The system will then select one of the options to include in the final prompt. This flexible system allows for options to be placed throughout the text as needed.
+
+Furthermore, Dynamic Prompts can designate multiple selections from a single group of options. This feature is triggered by prefixing the options with a numerical value followed by $$. For example, in {2$$option1|option2|option3}, the system will select two distinct options from the set.
+### Creating Dynamic Prompts
+
+To create a Dynamic Prompt, follow these steps:
+
+    Draft your sentence or phrase, identifying words or phrases with multiple possible options.
+    Encapsulate the different options within curly braces {}.
+    Within the braces, separate each option using a vertical bar |.
+    If you want to include multiple options from a single group, prefix with the desired number and $$.
+
+For instance: A {house|apartment|lodge|cottage} in {summer|winter|autumn|spring} designed in {2$$style1|style2|style3}.
+### How Dynamic Prompts Work
+
+Once a Dynamic Prompt is configured, the system generates an array of combinations using the options provided. Each group of options in curly braces is treated independently, with the system selecting one option from each group. For a prefixed set (e.g., 2$$), the system will select two distinct options.
+
+For example, the following prompts could be generated from the above Dynamic Prompt:
+
+    A house in summer designed in style1, style2
+    A lodge in autumn designed in style3, style1
+    A cottage in winter designed in style2, style3
+    And many more!
+
+When the `Combinatorial` setting is on, Invoke will disable the "Images" selection, and generate every combination up until the setting for Max Prompts is reached.
+When the `Combinatorial` setting is off, Invoke will randomly generate combinations up until the setting for Images has been reached.
+
+
+
+### Tips and Tricks for Using Dynamic Prompts
+
+Below are some useful strategies for creating Dynamic Prompts:
+
+    Utilize Dynamic Prompts to generate a wide spectrum of prompts, perfect for brainstorming and exploring diverse ideas.
+    Ensure that the options within a group are contextually relevant to the part of the sentence where they are used. For instance, group building types together, and seasons together.
+    Apply the 2$$ prefix when you want to incorporate more than one option from a single group. This becomes quite handy when mixing and matching different elements.
+    Experiment with different quantities for the prefix. For example, 3$$ will select three distinct options.
+    Be aware of coherence in your prompts. Although the system can generate all possible combinations, not all may semantically make sense. Therefore, carefully choose the options for each group.
+    Always review and fine-tune the generated prompts as needed. While Dynamic Prompts can help you generate a multitude of combinations, the final polishing and refining remain in your hands.

+## Watermarking
+
+InvokeAI does not apply watermarking to images by default. However,
+many computer scientists working in the field of generative AI worry
+that a flood of computer-generated imagery will contaminate the image
+data sets needed to train future generations of generative models.
+
+InvokeAI offers an optional watermarking mode that writes a small bit
+of text, **InvokeAI**, into each image that it generates using an
+"invisible" watermarking library that spreads the information
+throughout the image in a way that is not perceptible to the human
+eye. If you are planning to share your generated images on
+internet-accessible services, we encourage you to activate the
+invisible watermark mode in order to help preserve the digital image
+environment.
+
+The downside of watermarking is that it increases the size of the
+image moderately, and has been reported by some individuals to degrade
+image quality. Your mileage may vary.
+
+To read the watermark in an image, activate the InvokeAI virtual
+environment (called the "developer's console" in the launcher) and run
+the command:
+
+```
+invisible-watermark -a decode -t bytes -m dwtDct -l 64 /path/to/image.png

-#### Facial reconstruction and upscaling
-
-Stable Diffusion frequently produces mangled faces, particularly when there are
-multiple figures in the same scene. Stable Diffusion has particular issues with
-generating reallistic eyes. InvokeAI provides the ability to reconstruct faces
-using either the GFPGAN or CodeFormer libraries. For more information see
-[POSTPROCESS](POSTPROCESS.md).
-
-1.  Invoke a prompt that generates a mangled face. A prompt that often gives
-    this is "portrait of a lawyer, 3/4 shot" (this is not intended as a slur
-    against lawyers!) Once you have an image that needs some touching up, load
-    it into the Image panel, and press the button with the face icon
-    (highlighted in the first screenshot below). A dialog box will appear. Leave
-    _Strength_ at 0.8 and press \*Restore Faces". If all goes well, the eyes and
-    other aspects of the face will be improved (see the second screenshot)
-
-    ![Invoke Web Server - Original Image](../assets/invoke-web-server-3.png)
-
-    ![Invoke Web Server - Retouched Image](../assets/invoke-web-server-4.png)
-
-    The facial reconstruction _Strength_ field adjusts how aggressively the face
-    library will try to alter the face. It can be as high as 1.0, but be aware
-    that this often softens the face airbrush style, losing some details. The
-    default 0.8 is usually sufficient.
-
-2.  "Upscaling" is the process of increasing the size of an image while
-    retaining the sharpness. InvokeAI uses an external library called "ESRGAN"
-    to do this. To invoke upscaling, simply select an image and press the _HD_
-    button above it. You can select between 2X and 4X upscaling, and adjust the
-    upscaling strength, which has much the same meaning as in facial
-    reconstruction. Try running this on one of your previously-generated images.
-
-3.  Finally, you can run facial reconstruction and/or upscaling automatically
-    after each Invocation. Go to the Advanced Options section of the Control
-    Panel and turn on _Restore Face_ and/or _Upscale_.

-#### Image Workspace
-
-When an image from the Invocation Gallery is selected, or is generated, the
-image will be displayed within the center of the interface. A quickbar of common
-image interactions are displayed along the top of the image, including:

-- Initialize Face Restoration on the selected file
-- Initialize Upscaling on the selected file
-- View File metadata and details
-- Delete the file

+# Getting Started with AI Image Generation
+
+New to image generation with AI? You’re in the right place! 
+
+This is a high level walkthrough of some of the concepts and terms you’ll see as you start using InvokeAI. Please note, this is not an exhaustive guide and may be out of date due to the rapidly changing nature of the space. 
+
+## Using InvokeAI
+
+### **Prompt Crafting**
+
+- Prompts are the basis of using InvokeAI, providing the models directions on what to generate. As a general rule of thumb, the more detailed your prompt is, the better your result will be.
+
+ *To get started, here’s an easy template to use for structuring your prompts:*
+
+- Subject, Style, Quality, Aesthetic
+    - **Subject:** What your image will be about. E.g. “a futuristic city with trains”,  “penguins floating on icebergs”, “friends sharing beers”
+    - **Style:** The style or medium in which your image will be in. E.g. “photograph”, “pencil sketch”, “oil paints”, or “pop art”, “cubism”, “abstract”
+    - **Quality:** A particular aspect or trait that you would like to see emphasized in your image. E.g. "award-winning", "featured in {relevant set of high quality works}", "professionally acclaimed". Many people often use "masterpiece".
+    - **Aesthetics:** The visual impact and design of the artwork. This can be colors, mood, lighting, setting, etc.
+- There are two prompt boxes: *Positive Prompt* & *Negative Prompt*.
+    - A **Positive** Prompt includes words you want the model to reference when creating an image.
+    - Negative Prompt is for anything you want the model to eliminate when creating an image. It doesn’t always interpret things exactly the way you would, but helps control the generation process. Always try to include a few terms - you can typically use lower quality image terms like “blurry” or “distorted” with good success.
+- Some examples prompts you can try on your own:
+    - A detailed oil painting of a tranquil forest at sunset with vibrant+ colors and soft, golden light filtering through the trees
+    - friends sharing beers in a busy city, realistic colored pencil sketch, twilight, masterpiece, bright, lively
+
+### Generation Workflows
+
+- Invoke offers a number of different workflows for interacting with models to produce images. Each is extremely powerful on its own, but together provide you an unparalleled way of producing high quality creative outputs that align with your vision.
+    - **Text to Image:** The text to image tab focuses on the key workflow of using a prompt to generate a new image. It includes other features that help control the generation process as well.
+    - **Image to Image:** With image to image, you provide an image as a reference (called the “initial image”), which provides more guidance around color and structure to the AI as it generates a new image. This is provided alongside the same features as Text to Image.
+    - **Unified Canvas:** The Unified Canvas is an advanced AI-first image editing tool that is easy to use, but hard to master. Drag an image onto the canvas from your gallery in order to regenerate certain elements, edit content or colors (known as inpainting), or extend the image with an exceptional degree of consistency and clarity (called outpainting).
+
+### Improving Image Quality
+
+- Fine tuning your prompt - the more specific you are, the closer the image will turn out to what is in your head!  Adding more details in the Positive Prompt or Negative Prompt can help add / remove pieces of your image to improve it - You can also use advanced techniques like upweighting and downweighting to control the influence of certain words. [Learn more here](https://invoke-ai.github.io/InvokeAI/features/PROMPTS/#prompt-syntax-features).
+    - **Tip: If you’re seeing poor results, try adding the things you don’t like about the image to your negative prompt may help. E.g. distorted, low quality, unrealistic, etc.**
+- Explore different models - Other models can produce different results due to the data they’ve been trained on. Each model has specific language and settings it works best with; a model’s documentation is your friend here.  Play around with some and see what works best for you!
+- Increasing Steps - The number of steps used controls how much time the model is given to produce an image, and depends on the “Scheduler” used. The schedule controls how each step is processed by the model. More steps tends to mean better results, but will take longer - We recommend at least 30 steps for most
+- Tweak and Iterate - Remember, it’s best to change one thing at a time so you know what is working and what isn't. Sometimes you just need to try a new image, and other times using a new prompt might be the ticket. For testing, consider turning off the “random” Seed - Using the same seed with the same settings will produce the same image, which makes it the perfect way to learn exactly what your changes are doing.
+- Explore Advanced Settings - InvokeAI has a full suite of tools available to allow you complete control over your image creation process - Check out our [docs if you want to learn more](https://invoke-ai.github.io/InvokeAI/features/).

+
+### Stable Diffusion
+
+Stable Diffusion is deep learning, text-to-image model that is the foundation of the capabilities found in InvokeAI. Since the release of Stable Diffusion, there have been many subsequent models created based on Stable Diffusion that are designed to generate specific types of images. 
+
+### Prompts
+
+Prompts provide the models directions on what to generate. As a general rule of thumb, the more detailed your prompt is, the better your result will be.
+
+### Models
+
+Models are the magic that power InvokeAI. These files represent the output of training a machine on understanding massive amounts of images - providing them with the capability to generate new images using just a text description of what you’d like to see. (Like Stable Diffusion!)
+
+Invoke offers a simple way to download several different models upon installation, but many more can be discovered online, including at ****. Each model can produce a unique style of output, based on the images it was trained on - Try out different models to see which best fits your creative vision!
+
+- *Models that contain “inpainting” in the name are designed for use with the inpainting feature of the Unified Canvas*
+
+### Scheduler
+
+Schedulers guide the process of removing noise (de-noising) from data. They determine:
+
+1. The number of steps to take to remove the noise.
+2. Whether the steps are random (stochastic) or predictable (deterministic).
+3. The specific method (algorithm) used for de-noising.
+
+Experimenting with different schedulers is recommended as each will produce different outputs!
+
+### Steps
+
+The number of de-noising steps each generation through. 
+
+Schedulers can be intricate and there's often a balance to strike between how quickly they can de-noise data and how well they can do it. It's typically advised to experiment with different schedulers to see which one gives the best results. There has been a lot written on the internet about different schedulers, as well as exploring what the right level of "steps" are for each. You can save generation time by reducing the number of steps used, but you'll want to make sure that you are satisfied with the quality of images produced!
+
+### Low-Rank Adaptations / LoRAs
+
+Low-Rank Adaptations (LoRAs) are like a smaller, more focused version of models, intended to focus on training a better understanding of how a specific character, style, or concept looks.
+
+### Textual Inversion Embeddings
+
+Textual Inversion Embeddings, like LoRAs, assist with more easily prompting for certain characters, styles, or concepts. However, embeddings are trained to update the relationship between a specific word (known as the “trigger”) and the intended output. 
+
+### ControlNet
+
+ControlNets are neural network models that are able to extract key features from an existing image and use these features to guide the output of the image generation model. 
+
+### VAE
+
+Variational auto-encoder (VAE) is a encode/decode model that translates the "latents" image produced during the image generation procees to the large pixel images that we see.
