Latest

Broader MetaHub and ComfyUI metadata recovery, faster large-library paths, improved accessibility and focused reliability fixes.

Added a Viewer setting to skip delete confirmations for faster cleanup workflows.
Improved MetaHub metadata parsing across PNG, JPEG, WebP and video files, preserving analytics, Pro payloads, generation type, lineage, LoRAs and recovered workflow details.
Improved ComfyUI extraction for subgraphs, grouped Flux workflows, Ideogram 4 scheduler flows, rgthree/LoraManager LoRA nodes, text joiners, guiders, schedulers, switches and muted nodes.
Reduced unnecessary intermediate allocations across analytics, indexing, filters, automation, similar-image search and cache-heavy paths.
Improved keyboard and screen reader accessibility across comparison, changelog, settings and modal/navigation controls.
Improved Find Similar scoring and matching for normalized prompts, LoRA weights, checkpoints, folders and model/prompt overlap.
Improved cache delta reliability and fixed generated-image deep links, watched-folder removals and the generation queue's Clear Finished state.

ComfyUI workspace reload fixes, safer workflow loading and more reliable watched-folder deletion/cache handling.

Fixed embedded ComfyUI reload behavior so failed or hidden views can reopen the configured ComfyUI URL correctly.
Fixed stale workflow load requests that could be reused after already being handled.
Improved deletion handling for auto-watched folders so removed files are reconciled through the watcher instead of being removed twice.
Improved cache delta writes after watched file removals and added safer retry handling when replacing cache chunks.

Ideogram v4 metadata support, desktop deep links, rating hotkeys, Find Similar improvements, performance work and update notification polish.

Added ComfyUI parser support for Ideogram v4 / KJ prompt-builder workflows, including subgraph-prefixed nodes, prompt reconstruction, model/VAE, CFG, scheduler, sampler, steps and seed extraction.
Added imagemetahub:// protocol handling so the desktop app can open folders from deep links, CLI directory arguments and second-instance launches.
Added 1–5 keyboard shortcuts for quickly applying ratings to the active image or current selection.
Improved Find Similar with a minimum prompt similarity slider, result-set filtering, scoped result navigation and a smoother inspect-results flow.
Reduced temporary array, map and set allocations across collections, file sync, image editing and large ComfyUI workflow rendering.
Added clearer labels, titles and decorative SVG handling across filter controls, the image editor, hotkey help and browser compatibility surfaces.
Replaced the native update dialog with a cleaner in-app update modal that shows release notes, download progress and clear install options.
Fixed footer visibility, sidebar scrolling and long checkpoint/LoRA text overflow in Find Similar results.
Fixed a startup race that could cause the What's New modal to reopen on every launch after the current version had already been viewed.
Corrected versioning on the Folder Selection screen.

Expanded Compare View, a full built-in image editor, faster viewer navigation, ComfyUI metadata parsing improvements and focused stability fixes.

Added two-image comparison modes: slider, hover, flicker, diff map, loupe and edge comparison.
Added a built-in local image editor for still images with adjustments, crop, rotate, flip, resize, sharpen, blur, annotations, text, highlights and blur/pixelate regions.
Added editor history/workflow support including undo/redo, zoom, Save As and Overwrite.
Improved responsiveness in large libraries and reduced UI slowdowns during cache updates, file watching and rapid browsing.
Improved image viewer navigation and zoom behavior.
Improved ComfyUI metadata extraction for more node patterns and workflow graph structures.
Fixed watched file deletions, edited image metadata, invalid video fallback metadata parsing and ComfyUI seed 0 parsing.

Library grouping, Group by Session, ComfyUI workflow polish, large-library performance work and focused stability fixes.

Added Group by Session with section navigation and thumbnail previews for faster movement through large folders.
Expanded ComfyUI workflow actions across the main app, image viewer, grid and embedded workspace, including clearer metadata copying and dimension display.
Reduced temporary allocations and queue overhead in large libraries, including hot-path improvements for maps, sets, queues, thumbnails, lineage and automation flows.
Improved ComfyUI visual workflow performance and resilience for long or incomplete graphs.
Preserved ComfyUI workflow metadata when image adjustment exports write edited PNG files.
Added more accessible labels, clearer disabled-state tooltips, safer hotkey reset confirmation and macOS media diagnostics/safe-mode documentation.
Fixed bulk favorite behavior, duplicate Delete-key confirmations, ComfyUI queue monitor update loops, workspace prompt selection and stale group preview hovers.

Image adjustments, embedded ComfyUI Workspace, external queue detection and large-library stability improvements.

Added brightness, contrast, saturation and hue adjustment controls with desktop Save As and Overwrite PNG workflows that preserve generation metadata.
Added a ComfyUI Workspace with an embedded browser, image context panel, workflow metadata tabs, thumbnails, copy/generate actions and direct viewer entry points.
Added optional monitoring for ComfyUI jobs started outside Image MetaHub, including queue status, progress, output previews and cancel support where available.
Reduced OOM risk and improved cache reconciliation for very large ComfyUI libraries.
Fixed image-grid keyboard navigation on macOS, video viewer scaling, Smart Library cluster restore and cache refresh persistence issues.

Folder management, generation queue and navigation improvements.

Added directory tree navigation, subfolder operations, drag-and-drop file transfers and directory renaming.
Rebuilt generation queue execution and progress tracking for clearer A1111 and ComfyUI workflows.
Added a preview modal for completed generation queue results.
Fixed heavy-indexing render loops, queue cancellation issues, folder rename edge cases and grid layout inconsistencies.

Viewer navigation stability hotfix.

Fixed a React hook ordering issue that could turn the app black when changing preview images or navigating the image viewer.
Improved arrow-key handling in the image modal to avoid conflicts with other keyboard shortcuts.

Thumbnail pipeline performance follow-up and video thumbnail display fix.

Refactored desktop thumbnail cache to resolve cached image thumbnails through URL-backed disk cache hits.
Added batched thumbnail cache resolution, manifest-backed cache lookup, visible-first scheduling and main-process thumbnail generation.
Fixed video thumbnails being generated or resolved but not displayed in the grid.
Kept the media memory-safety protections from 0.15.1.

Memory-safety hotfix after the 0.15.0 release.
