Releases: Beakfx/mbq
MBQ Viewer v1.2.0
MBQ Viewer + Wedge v1.2.0
- Fixed image quality when zoomed out past 50% — the canvas now swaps to a software-resampled downscale instead of relying on Qt's bilinear minification, which aliased badly on high-frequency content (most visible on ComfyUI workspace screenshots: UI text, thin lines). Accounts for display scaling (HiDPI), so the fix holds up on scaled monitors instead of just adding a second blur pass.
- Fixed Copy Image to always copy the full-resolution original, regardless of current zoom level — previously it copied whatever was currently rendered, which could be a degraded preview if you were zoomed out.
- Minor metadata/description cleanup for the Comfy Registry listing.
No installer/portable-exe filename changes beyond the version bump — same two download options as before.
MBQ Viewer v1.1.0
MBQ Viewer + Wedge v1.1.0
- MBQ Wedge Sampler now has the same optional filter field as Scheduler — sweep a named subset of samplers instead of all of them.
- Conflict guard: if more than one MBQ Wedge node is connected to a real parameter at once, MBQ now warns and gets out of the way entirely — queues a single normal job instead of guessing which one should win. Disconnect the extra wedge(s) to resume sweeping.
- Filmstrip multi-select: Shift-click for a range, Ctrl-click to toggle individual thumbnails in or out.
DeleteandCtrl+Znow act on the whole selection as one batch. - Connection guard: wiring a Sampler/Scheduler wedge into a parameter with a different value list now auto-disconnects with a warning instead of silently producing garbage.
- Fixed a display bug where a disconnected wedge's value could get stamped onto a different wedge node in the panel.
- Fixed the numeric wedge still multiplying renders during the conflict-guard fallback.
- Help menu now links straight to the keyboard shortcuts section; About dialog refreshed.
Downloads: MBQViewer-Setup-1.1.0.exe (installer) or MBQViewer.exe (portable) below.

last deleted image from trash. Supports multiple undo levels within a folder session. -

MBQ Viewer v0.9.3
What's new
- Dark mode fix — MBQ Viewer now forces its own dark theme using Qt's
Fusion style, independent of Windows "App mode" settings. Previously,
users with Windows set to Light app mode would see a near-unreadable
light UI. This fixes it for everyone regardless of Windows theme settings.
