Obsidian CLI

This release introduces the Obsidian CLI, a command line interface that lets you control Obsidian from your terminal for scripting, automation, and integration with external tools.

For installation help, check the troubleshooting section for the platform-specific information.

Image resizing

Images in Live Preview can now be resized by dragging from the corner. Double-click the corner to reset the image size.

Automatic attachment cleanup

When deleting a file, a prompt will ask if you would also like to delete its attachments. A new setting in Files & Links allows you to configure this behavior (choose "Always", "Ask every time", or "Never").

Improvements

Bases

• Added a search toolbar button to filter query results.
• Added the ability to import files into Bases via drag and drop.

File Explorer

• Copy and paste operations are now supported using Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V (Cmd-C/Cmd-V on macOS).

• Added new menu items when you right-click in the empty space next to the editor:
  • Toggle line numbers
  • Toggle inline title
• Fixed missing space after blockquotes.
• Fixed styling of bold links.
• Image size is no longer treated as display text when dragging a link.

Other

No longer broken

Other

• Keychain: Added handling for when encryption is unavailable on some Linux machines.
• Fixed issue where layout was not always saved when the app is closed.
• Fixed issue where selecting text near a link or tag would incorrectly trigger the link or tag token.
• Fixed issue where closing a pop-out window with active notices would cause them to move to the main window and never disappear.
• Added a new unique URI action.
• Fixed the outline view flickering while typing.
• Fixed scroll position not updating after changing the row height in Bases table view.
• Fixed "More options" menu not closing when clicking the "..." button in a pop-out window.
• Fixed list properties not showing edit and remove options in the context menu when right-clicking a link inside a list item.
• File Explorer: Fixed "Duplicate" menu item generating an incomplete folder name when duplicating a folder that includes "." in the name.

Developers

• The installer has been updated to use Electron v39.7.0 (requires downloading the latest installer).
• We've updated how our translation files are created and bundled with the app. For translators, see the updated instructions on our translations repository.
• Added theming support for corner shapes using corner-shape CSS property. Replaced -electron-corner-smoothing. Requires Chromium 139 and Obsidian 1.11+.
• macOS: New traffic-lights-offset-x and --traffic-lights-offset-y CSS variables to configure where the traffic lights appear in the window frame. These offsets are now applied immediately when the app loads.
• We've introduced a breaking API change to BaseOption#shouldHide. This function no longer receives the config as an argument. Options should be accessed from BasesViewRegistration.options instead.

registerView('my-view-id', {
		name: 'View Name',
		icon: 'my-icon',
		factory: () => new MyView(),
		options: (config: BasesViewConfig) => ({
			// Here ^
		})
});

• Added appendBinary method to the vault and adapter API.
