auto-sd-paint-ext

Formerly known as auto-sd-krita.

Extension for AUTOMATIC1111's webUI with Krita Plugin (other drawing studios soon?)

Outdated demo	New UI (TODO: demo image)

Why use this?

• Optimized workflow (txt2img, img2img, inpaint, outpaint, upscale) & UI design.
• Only drawing studio plugin that exposes the Script API.
• Easily create/save profiles (prompts, samplers, model, etc used).
• Some of the above isn't actually implemented yet.

(Outdated) Usage & Workflow Demo:

Differences from Video

• All webUI scripts have been tested to work!
  • SD Upscale, Outpainting Mk 2, Img2Img Alt, etc
• Inpainting experience is better
  • Inpaint mask is auto-hidden
  • Better mask blur & inpaint full resolution technique than webUI
• UI no longer freezes during image update
• UI has been improved, takes up less space
• Error messages have been improved

Breaking Changes

• The URL is different now, so reset "Backend URL" to default under the Config tab.
• It is now an AUTOMATIC1111 extension.
  • Do https://github.com/Interpause/auto-sd-krita/wiki/Quick-Switch-Using-Existing-AUTOMATIC1111-Install in reverse for a quick fix.
• krita_config.yaml was renamed to auto-sd-paint-ext-backend.yaml.

FAQ

Q: How does the base_size, max_size system work?

A:

It is an alternative to AUTO's highres fix that works for all modes, not just txt2img.

The selection will be resized such that the shorter dimension is base_size. However, if the aforementioned resize causes the longer dimension to exceed max_size, the shorter dimension will be resized to less than base_size. Setting base_size and max_size higher can be used to generate higher resolution images (along with their issues), essentially disabling the system, though it might make sense for img2img mode.

This is actually smarter than the builtin highres fix + firstphase width/height system. Thank the original plugin writer, @sddebz, for writing this.

<hr/>

Q: Outpainting tab?

A: While the outpainting tab is still WIP, the outpainting scripts (under img2img tab) works perfectly fine! Alternatively, if you want more control over outpainting, you can:

1. Expand the canvas
2. Scribble in the newly added blank area
3. img2img on the blank area + some of the image

<hr/>

Q: Is the model loaded into memory twice?

A: No, it shares the same backend. Both the Krita plugin and webUI can be used concurrently.

<hr/>

Q: How can you commit to updating regularly?

A: It is easy for me.

<hr/>

Q: Will it work with other Krita plugin backends?

A: Unfortunately no, all plugins so far have different APIs. The official API is coming soon though...

UI Changelog

See CHANGELOG.md for the full changelog.

2022-12-28

• Added "Alt Dock Behaviour" under "SD Plugin Config".
  • Modifies default Krita dock behaviour!
    • Dragging title bar of docker now drags all stacked/tabbed dockers out instead of just one docker.
    • Dragging the tab now drags the specific docker out instead of only re-arranging the tab.
  • Enables floating stacked/tabbed dockers.
  • Enables subdividing dock areas further.
  • See: https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qmainwindow.html#DockOption-enum
• All generations are added to group layer per batch with generation info.
  • For batches of generations, all but the last image generated is hidden by default.

2022-12-20

• UI Overhaul: A few miscellaneous changes with some big ones:
  • All tabs are now their own dockers to allow more flexibility in arranging.
    • "Restore Defaults" will make all dockers re-appear and arrange themselves.
  • Progress & number of pending requests now shown.
  • All dropdowns now support searching, useful if your model checkpoint list is really long.

2022-12-04

• Add Interrupt button.

2022-11-15

• Scripts/features that increase the image size (Simple upscaling, SD upscaling, Outpaint Mk 2, etc) will now expand the canvas when image generation is complete only if there is no active selection.
  • If there is a selection, the image will be scaled to fit the selection region.
  • Using Ctrl+A to select the entire image is considered an active selection!

2022-11-08

• Inpainting is finally 100% fixed! No more weird borders. Blur works properly.
• Inpainting Full Resolution and Mask Blur were deemed obsolete and removed.
  • See https://github.com/Interpause/auto-sd-paint-ext/wiki/Usage-Guide#inpainting on better ways to do so.
