Full Release Notes

This **minor** release includes a handful of fixes and enhancements.

> Check out the [v6.0.0 release notes](https://github.com/invoke-ai/InvokeAI/releases/tag/v6.0.0) if you haven't already! It's a big one.

## Enhancements

- Restored `Cancel and Clear All` functionality, which was removed in v6. The button for this is in the hamburger menu next to the Invoke button.
- When resetting Canvas Layers, an empty Inpaint Mask layer is added.
- Restored the Viewer toggle hotkey `z`.
- Updated translations. Thanks @Harvester62 !

## Fixes

- Fixed `useInvocationNodeContext must be used within an InvocationNodeProvider` error that could crash the Workflow Editor.
- Fixed issue where scrolling on Canvas could result in zooming in the wrong direction, especially when using a mouse scrollwheel.

## Internal/Dev

- Minor perf improvement in Workflow Editor, reducing re-renders of the Auto Layout popover.

## Installing and Updating

**The Invoke Launcher is the recommended way to install, update and run Invoke**. It takes care of a lot of details for you - like installing the right version of python - and runs Invoke as a desktop application.

Note: With recent updates to `torch`, users on older GPUs (20xx and 10xx series) will likely run into issues with installing/updating. We are still evaluating how we can support older GPUs, but in the meantime users have found success manually downgrading `torch`. Head over to [discord](https://discord.gg/ZmtBAhwWhy) if you need help.

Follow the [Quick Start guide](https://invoke-ai.github.io/InvokeAI/installation/quick_start/) to get started with the launcher.

If you don't want to use the launcher, or need a headless install, you can follow the [manual install guide](https://invoke-ai.github.io/InvokeAI/installation/manual/).
