The new version has added many menu functions on the side, mainly to improve the functions of image generation queue management, node management, model management, workflow management, etc. Since this part of the functions is relatively simple to use, it will not be explained in detail. There are generally some functions below.
Image generation queue management, quickly browse queue history pictures
Node management, node library browsing, node search, node filtering
Model management, model library browsing, model search, model filtering
Workflow management, workflow browsing, workflow search, workflow filtering
Under normal circumstances, ComfyUI will automatically switch languages according to your current browser/system language. If you open and run ComfyUI and find that the language is not what you want, you can manually switch languages in the menu settings.
The old version menu only supports English, the new version menu supports multiple languages, and switching languages will not take effect on the old version menu interface.
In menu settings, you can switch between the new and old version menus. After setting the corresponding options to Disable in ComfyUI > Menu > Use New Menu, you can switch back to the old version menu interface.
