Improvements

  • Views now load only when visible, improving startup performance and memory usage. This might cause issues with some plugins, but we've published a guide for plugin developers.
  • Improvements to Obsidian URI new
    • Allows the use of clipboard instead of content to insert the contents of the clipboard.
    • Allows the use of prepend instead of append to add to the top of the file.
    • prepend and append will both attempt to merge properties.
  • Daily Notes: New daily Obsidian URI action to automatically open or create your daily note.
  • Renaming files is now faster in large vaults.
  • Obsidian Sync: You can now filter the activity log.
  • The startup debugging screen now shows the number of views loaded and deferred at startup.
  • Minor tweaks were made to the status bar padding.

No longer broken

  • Fixed issue where hover previews didn’t disappear after creating a footnote.
  • Fixed a bug where Obsidian would not always wait for pending filesystem operations before quitting.
  • Canvas: Improved performance when panning. There should no longer be a flicker when cards enter and exit the viewport. If you're still seeing related issues, please try switching to default theme.
  • The startup debugging screen now includes plugin versions in the clipboard result.
  • Live preview now only escapes special characters (not letters and numbers).
  • Fixed bug where escape characters at the start of a list item disappeared in Live Preview.
  • Fixed issue where files couldn’t be moved into folders with a file of the same name but different capitalization.
  • Fixed issue where links with custom display text under a table confused the Markdown parser.
  • Vim: The latest bugfixes from our vim library (codemirror-vim) have been added. This includes fixes for arrow navigation on wrapped lines.
