Excalidraw 2.4.0

on GitHub

See the notes for the beta release for a detailed list of changes in 2.4.0

Notice

There is a minor formatting issue when you set non-default font size in Obsidian > Appearance settings. I won't publish an update just because of this. If you are impacted, you can add the following CSS snippet under Obsidian > Appearance > CSS Snippets. Open the folder, create a file e.g. "excalidraw-style-tweak.css" and paste the below code save the file, update the list of snippets in Obsidian and enable this new snippet.

.excalidraw div[data-radix-popper-content-wrapper] > div > div.Island {
 max-width: 13rem !important;
}

.excalidraw .App-menu__left {
  width: 12.5rem !important;
}
