It's been a little while since our last update, but that is for good reason! Our team has been busy adding in all the tools you need to use ControlNet! If you haven't heard of ControlNet before, then keep reading. I've linked a video explaining it in the Platform Update section.
In addition to this excitement, this update includes some edits to the UI menus, a few bugs fixes, and enhanced performance in several key areas. As always, we hope these updates make your art experience that much better.
