FEAT: Add subfolder selection to LoadImage node
Add subfolder selection to LoadImage node, allowing to list images from ComfyUI/input/subfolders (if any).
For people like me who almost exclusively do img2img the input/ folder gets really messy very quickly, easily can get to multiple hundreds of files in there with no way to categorize.
I could be mistaken but I believe this addition would not really add complexity or confusion to users, simply set
There are some great custom nodes that I use a lot such as Image Sequence Loader by melMass, that allow to enter custom path, perfect for files with specific naming convention (ie: animation sequence). But for general purpose I have not found a custom node solution, hence the feature suggestion.
I completely agree. I'm attempting to add my path selector as a custom node that does precisely this, but honestly, I'm having quite a bit of trouble making it "comfy-ish" using folder_paths.py's examples.
I might share a dodgy version if I can get something at least functional and then maybe iterate on it, as it's a feature I desperately want.
I for example have the use case of storing my SDXL and SD1.5 together, and I would like to filter to SDXL models loras etc only when I'm on an SDXL workflow.
The default LoadImage node does not support subfolders. It also does not support preview images before selecting them. It becomes very uncomfortable to use when there are a lot of images in the folder, all with non-descriptive file names.
My current solution is to use the ImageLoad node from WAS Node Suit instead. I browse images in the Input folder or other folders using Double Commander because it has a shortcut key to copy the file path. (well.. I just learned that this shortcut Ctrl+Shift+C works in Windows Explorer too.) Then I can paste the path into the ImageLoad node quickly.
Are there any other good solutions?
A quick update from me, I am working on this implementation now. It's slow progress as my bucket is particularly full at the moment, but I am hoping to finish this month along with a few other string/path quality of life improvements.
