Layer Editor, Batch Node, and little big updates

Meet the Layer Editor Node, a new compositing toolkit for your canvas. It's also now fully loaded with precision controls, snapping, and keyboard shortcuts that make compositing feel native.

Batch Node lets you process entire queues of assets in one go.

And lots of small upgrades that make your canvas experience feel snappier and more cohesive.

📦 New

  1. Layer Editor v1.0 + v1.1

    A full compositing toolkit for combining multiple images into layered compositions, right on your canvas.

    MoreLess

    Position, resize, reorder, and lock layers with precision. Export the final composition as a single unified image — no need to leave FLORA for basic compositing work. Read about the Layer Editor here.

  2. Batch Node

    Process multiple assets through a single generation in one run.

    MoreLess

    Feed up to 100 images, videos, or text items into a Batch Node and run them all through the same downstream operation simultaneously. Think bulk upscaling, style transfers, or variations — without clicking "generate" a hundred times. Read more about Batch Node here.

🧠 Improved

  1. Auto Select Mode

    The auto-model toggle is now labeled "Auto select mode" for clarity, and defaults to on.

    MoreLess

    FLORA picks the best model for your workflow so you can focus on creating.

  2. Nano Banana 2 as Default Image Model

    Google's Gemini 2.5 Flash Image model is now the default for image generation.

    MoreLess

    Fast photo edits, stylized renders, and multi-image fusion at 26 seconds per generation.

  3. Show Credit Balance Toggle

    New preference in Account Settings to show or hide your remaining credit balance in the credits indicator. Your workspace, your rules.

  4. Extract Outputs onto Canvas

    Unpack a node's full generation history into individual nodes.

    MoreLess

    Right-click any node with 2+ completed outputs and select "Extract Outputs onto Canvas." Each output becomes its own node, auto-arranged in a grid next to the source — great for comparing variations or branching your workflow.

  5. Bulk Download

    Download all generations from a node as a single ZIP.

    MoreLess

    When a node has multiple completed outputs, hit the new download button in the toolbar to grab everything as a neatly named ZIP file. No more downloading one by one.

  6. Expand Text Node Toggle

    One click in the toolbar to expand the display dimensions of a text node.

  7. Layer Editor

    updates

  8. Layer Locking

    Prevent accidental edits to finalized layers.

    MoreLess

    Toggle lock on any layer via the context menu. Locked layers can't be moved, resized, or deleted, so your careful positioning stays exactly where you put it.

  9. Nudge Layer Positions

    Pixel-perfect placement with arrow keys.

    MoreLess

    Arrow keys nudge layers by 1px. Hold Shift to nudge by 10px for faster repositioning. Fine-tune your compositions without touching the mouse.

  10. Resize & Center Snapping

    Layers now snap to frame edges and center points during resize, with snapping enabled by default.

    MoreLess

    Anchor preservation keeps your opposite edge fixed while you drag.

  11. More Aspect Ratios

    Additional aspect ratio options in the Layer Editor.

    MoreLess

    Corner handles maintain ratio by default; hold Shift to toggle free-form resizing.

  12. Better Frame Border

    Cleaner, more visible frame border in the Layer Editor for easier spatial orientation while compositing.

  13. Properties Panel Cleanup

    Reorganized and streamlined with tooltips on every action, so you spend less time hunting for controls.

  14. Dimension Input Cycling

    Tab and Shift+Tab now cycle through dimension inputs in the properties panel, committing values as you go. Faster than clicking between fields.
