wyrde's basic basics of comfy workflows

Keyboard shortcuts

    Ctrl + A       = select all nodes
    Ctrl + M       = mute/unmute selected nodes
    Ctrl + C       = copy selected nodes
    Ctrl + V       = paste node buffer
	Ctrl + Enter   = Adds current workflow to queue
    Delete         = delete selected nodes
    Backspace      = delete selected nodes
    Space Bar      = drag viewing area (hold space bar and move mouse pointer)

Notes:

• Ctrl + X does nothing.
• muted nodes don't process and block everythintg behind them
• Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V, Ctrl+X, work normally inside a text box/field
• The text areas are like a separate layer. Space and copy/paste functions act normal inside them and use comfyUI functions outside.

Organization

• Add pythongosssss Node Templates from this repo. Download the node-templates file and put it in ComfyUI/web/extensions/. (Don't copy paste the editor display, save the raw file.) This repo has some other super helpful extensions as well. Templates are now in ComfyUI.
  • I still recommended image-feed and workflow-svg from the repo
• noodles (the wires) can be organized with reroute nodes. It takes extra time, but it makes figuring out a workflow a few days later much easier. Much less someone else.
• SaveImage can do sub folders. The format is folder/imageprefix.
• The LoadImage node is (at this writing) too small. Drag the bottom down to show the image preview. Glory at the terrible sketch comfy made for an example!

Filenames

Prefix Output files can be customized with substitutions

%date:d-M-yy%

all the date variables:

    yy -> last 2 digit of year (23)
    yyyy -> full year format (2023)
    d -> day number
    M -> month number
    h -> hour
    m -> minute
    s -> second

• Put in a / to create a folder like %date:d-M-yyyy%/ComfyUI
• %width% and %height% are also supported.
• Various items from nodes can also be included. Right click on a node, click on properties and use the contents of the Node name for S&R property and the name of the data_field.
  • Example of putting the checkpoint in the file name:
  • The node names for S&R is CheckpointLoaderSimple
  • The data_field is ckpt_name
  • combine with a . between: CheckpointLoaderSimple.ckpt_name
  • wrap the whole thing with % at the ends: %CheckpointLoaderSimple.ckpt_name%
  • and put that in the filename_prefix of the Save Image node
• each substitution gets its own %marks. Example: %date:yyyy-M-d%/%node.data%_%node2.data2%

Suffix

• ComfyUI adds the suffix of an underscore, 5-digit number, underscore, and extension at the end of the file name automatically (_NNNNN_.png).

Tips and Philosophy

• ComfyUI has a philosophy of keep it simple. Don't try to create a "do it all" workflow, instead focus on a specific objective.
• use the CheckpointLoaderSimple node to load checkpoints. It will auto pick the right settings depending on your GPU.

This directory conatains some basic workflows showing beginning principles. Think of them as badly organized tutorials.
