What happened?

Hey there, i already searched the forums, but couldn't find that already:

Using: InvokeAI 2.2.5

I start the invoke.bat > Choose: 1. command-line Initialization finishes and prompting works fine, generates images.

trying to use --from_file with a prepaired text file: --from_file "C:\invokeai\invoketestbatch.txt"

gives error: invoke.py: error: unrecognized arguments: --from_file C:\invokeai\invoketestbatch.txt

the -h help does not list the from_file arguments... What did i do wrong?

greets, Paccocino

The issue is still there in the newest update. :-(

It seems to be crashing with all types of arguments, the famous ./docker/run.sh "banana sushi" -Ak_lms -S42 -s10 fails as well with the same error message even though the exact same command is in the docs.

There has been an issue (#2575) about this in the past, but the "solution" seemed to be just not to use cli directly and use their InvokeAI cli environment instead...

both this issue and the old issue, that has been closed since, are still happening.

I'm also experiencing this issue on Mac.
