Latest Release: v1.2.1

New Features

Color Profile Support

We've added support for different color profiles, expanding the versatility of our image processing capabilities.

⚠️ Important Notes:

• This feature may produce unintended color changes, especially when working with CMYK profiles. For best results, we recommend:
  • Converting to RGBA first, or
  • Using the alpha channel and applying it to the original image
• Conversion with any color profile other than RGBA will result in longer processing times

Debug Mode

A new debug mode has been introduced to assist with troubleshooting and development:

• Open temporary file locations directly
• Save files without automatic cleanup
• Easily copy error codes for support requests

Improvements

• Various bug fixes and performance enhancements
• Improved error handling and reporting

Caution

When using debug mode, please be aware that temporary files are not automatically removed. This can lead to excessive file accumulation on your hard drive if left enabled for extended periods.

We're excited about these new features and improvements! If you encounter any issues or have suggestions, please don't hesitate to open an issue or contribute to the project.

Full Changelog: 1.2...1.2.1

1.2

Krita_Background_Remover_BreaAI_1.2.zip

Now with batch mode! Remove the background of multiple images in a matter of seconds (average is about 2 seconds for 8-10 images). Please use responsibly, as I did not test the upper limits of the number of images it can remove at once.

Streamlined the entire interface so it doesn't pop up a save-as dialogue. It automatically saves as a 100% .jpg. This makes the upload process much faster and gives a near lossless quality.

Full Changelog: 1.1.1...1.2

1.1.1

Now works with MacOS. Had an issue with the SSL certificate.

See previous releases or main readme for installation instructions.

Full Changelog: 1.1...1.1.1

1.1

Version 1.1

• Fixed some bugs, added some error handlers and validation.
• Renamed plugin so it wouldn't conflict with any other plugins (note: you may need to remove the existing plugin in your pykrita directory)

A simple plugin for Krita that automatically removes the background of an image using BriaAI's API in seconds

Setup instructions:

• You will need a free BriaAI account and API key. As of the writing of this document, it doesn't require a credit card and includes 1000 uses per month and very reasonable prices after that (~ $0.08 per). Go to http://www.bria.ai/ to sign up.

• Download the plugin and import in Krita through "Tools -> Scripts -> Import Python plugin from file..." (note: do not extract the files).

• Enable the docker window through "Settings -> Dockers -> Background Remover BriaAI".

• Copy your BriaAI API key from the website and paste into the API Key field.

• Select the layer you want to remove the background of and click Remove Background. It may take a few seconds. It will then create a new layer with an alpha channel.

I hope you enjoy the power of automatic background removal in Krita!

Known bugs:
Only works in RGBA color space.
May not work on Mac (need further testing)

Todo:
Batch mode.
Insert layer at same level as current layer.
