ComfyUI Node
Step Preview
Turns sampler previews on for this one workflow, without touching the launch flags and without affecting other workflows on the server. Drop it anywhere on the canvas -- no wiring needed. Three modes: auto and latent2rgb map the latent straight to RGB without loading a model; taesd decodes with TAESD for a near-real picture (it needs the taesd models in vae_approx); none also switches off previews that the server enabled globally. The frames come from ComfyUI's own samplers, and the setting resets when the run finishes. Hide sampler thumbnail keeps the frames off the sampler node so they only show up here -- a display setting, it saves no server work.

Inputs (3)
| Name | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| method | COMBO | auto | How preview frames are decoded. auto / latent2rgb: map the latent straight to RGB, no model is loaded, cheapest. taesd: decode with TAESD for a near-real picture; needs the taesd models in vae_approx. none: also switch off previews that the server had enabled globally. |
| max_size | INT | 51264–2048 | Longest edge of the preview image, in pixels. Smaller sends far less data, which helps a lot over a slow connection. Previews only -- the saved image is untouched. |
| hide_sampler | BOOLEAN | true | Hide the same frames on the sampler node and keep them here only. Front-end setting, nothing is sent to the server; the preview still runs, so the cost is the same. |
