Major Update Proposal : Vision support, File attachments, Context fixes

[Lognews]

Hello!

I've been using your GUI and I really appreciate your work. I decided to improve the script a bit to add support for multimodal models and fix some context/layout issues.

Here is a significantly updated version (v1.3

ollama_gui_1.3.0.zip

.0).

Changelog:

Multimodal Support: Added a button to attach Images. Supports models like llava, moondream, etc. (Requires Pillow).
File Attachments: Added support for attaching Text Files (.txt, .py, etc.). The content is automatically read and sent to the model hidden from the chat UI to keep it clean.
Smart Context Window: Implemented a rolling window mechanism. It prunes old messages from the prompt if the conversation exceeds the num_ctx limit, preventing crashes on long chats.
UI Improvements:
Added a Context Usage indicator (shows %).
Added a Tokens/sec counter.
Fixed scrolling behavior (no more jumping when text is generated).
Bug Fixes:
Fixed Russian keyboard layout hotkeys (Ctrl+C/V, Delete) using keycodes.
Fixed settings saving (UTF-8 support for config).
Model Settings: Added a UI to configure temperature and system prompt per model.
I would be happy if you could integrate these changes into the main repository!

Hello @Lognews et al.,
Thank you for your work on the GUI—it's been really helpful! I’ve been experimenting with it and noticed a behavior in the keyboard handling.
The fix_russian_layout() handler treats event.keycode == 46 as Delete.
On my system, the l key also emits keycode 46, so pressing L (lowercase and capital) deletes text and cannot be typed.
This happens because keycodes are layout and platform-dependent.
Using event.keysym (e.g. "Delete" / "KP_Delete") for Delete detection should avoid these collisions.

ollama_gui_1.4.0.zip

This is an extended version of Ollama GUI — my "Vibe Coding" experiment with AI assistance,
based on the excellent work by @chyok.

Thanks to community feedback (special thanks for catching the keyboard bug where the L key
was acting like Delete 🔪), my AI copilot and I have been busy implementing fixes and new features.
The keyboard no longer has an identity crisis — L is now just L, and Delete knows its place.

✨ What's New

version 1.4.0.

Smooth Experience:

• 🧈 Smooth scrolling (works on 60/144/240Hz displays)

Context Management:

• 📊 Visual context usage indicator with color coding
• ✂️ Smart context window — old messages automatically trimmed
• 🔴 Trimmed messages highlighted in red (so you know what the AI forgot)
• ⚙️ Configurable Response Reserve (Edit → Settings)

Message Control:

• ↻ Regenerate button — for when AI needs a second chance
• ✕ Delete button on each message — fix your mistakes (or the AI's)
  Fixes:
• ⌨️ Keyboard layout fix (Ctrl+C/V works on Russian/non-Latin layouts)
• 🐛 Delete key now uses keysym instead of keycode (no more L-key conflicts!)
