New
- Stencil libraries can now be stored as vault files instead of
data.json, improving plugin settings stability. Existing users are offered a safe, merge-first migration. To sync libraries, enable Sync all other types in Obsidian Sync. To view library files, enable Show all file types in Obsidian settings. - Added editable Markdown images.
- Store content locally (back-of-the-card) or link to a Markdown note, heading, or block.
- Edit content and appearance from the Excalidraw side panel.
- Supports canvas layering and image export.
- Dragging a Markdown note as an image lets you choose a heading (when available) and insert it as either an editable Markdown image or embeddable.
- Local Markdown image copies share the same source. Use Duplicate selected image to create an independent image and Markdown body. You can also convert between images and embeddables from the selected element's menu.
- Image-reference embeds now support an optional
padding=Nparameter, e.g.![[drawing#^area=xyz,padding=10]]. #2850 🙏 @Evgene-Kopylov - Added the Voronoi Diagram script. 🙏 @FreeCutter #2845
- Dragging a single external GIF with the Import external file action now lets you import it as either an image or an embeddable. #2848
- Folder and file path settings now provide vault suggestions, warn about missing paths, and can create missing folders after confirmation.
