Änderungsprotokoll

• Includes all new features and bug fixes up to Obsidian Desktop 1.14.3.

New

• Added Quick Look previews for Markdown files on macOS (requires latest installer).
• Added document icons on macOS and Windows for .md, .base and .canvas.
• Bases: Added a Group menu to the toolbar for choosing the property to group by. Use it to reorder, hide, and add groups by hand in any view type.

Improvements

• Added “Increase font size” and “Decrease font size” commands.
• Added an update notice in Settings → General when a newer installer is available.
• Bases: Improved how dates and times are rendered in group headers and in readonly layouts (e.g. Cards, Kanban).
• Bases: Embedded kanban boards no longer have a fixed height.
• Improved fuzzy search in the Quick switcher and suggestions: matches where your letters start words now rank higher, and searching is faster in large vaults.
• When opening an untrusted vault, themes and snippets will be temporarily disabled while the “Do you trust the author of this vault” dialog is on screen.
• Improved search in the Bookmarks, Outline, Tags, and Sync views. Everything inside a matching item now stays visible. Groups with nothing to show are hidden.
• In Source mode, pressing ArrowUp on the first line of a note now moves the cursor to the inline title, like in Live Preview.

No longer broken

• Fixed tooltips briefly disappearing when moving between adjacent items.

Developers

• The editor link suggestions (e.g. [[) and the quick switcher no longer switch to a simplified algorithm in vaults with more than 10,000 files. Fuzzy matching is now always used.

• iPad: Fixed incorrect app and status bar sizing when resizing windows in Split View or Stage Manager.

Developers

• Use --font-preferred-size for text that should respect the system’s preferred text size. On mobile, it combines --font-text-size with the --preferred-text-scale multiplier.

Right-to-left lanaguages (RTL)

New

• Typing == in the editor now suggests highlight colors.
• Live Preview: When the cursor overlaps a highlight, an inline swatch now appears. Click it to quickly change the highlight color.

• Groups are now collapsible in the table, cards, and list layouts.

Improvements

• The entire workspace, including the sidebars, now flips when Obsidian is set to a right-to-left (RTL) language. Commands stay the same, so “Toggle left sidebar” now refers to the visual left sidebar, even when the interface is flipped.
• Closing popout windows (such as Settings) is now much faster.
• Editor: Pasting a list item onto a line that already contains a list marker (e.g. - [ ] ) no longer duplicates the marker.

  some **bold |text** on the line|
  

  now results in:

  some **bold text on the line**

• Fixed copy and paste not working correctly in popout windows, including copying and pasting notes in Canvas.
• Web viewer: Fixed Google sign-in failing.
• Bases: Fixed the “+” button not generating correct frontmatter for unresolved links, e.g. file.hasLink("[[unresolved]]").
• Editor: Fixed OptionShift↑ and OptionShift↓ not working consistently on macOS in long paragraphs, where the scroll position would sometimes reset and the text selection would be incorrect.
• Editor: Fixed a parser issue where ![]( caused all following text in the document to be treated as part of the image.
• Editor: Fixed incorrect cursor placement when moving the cursor to the end of the line with multiple formatting markers (e.g. **__text__**).
• Editor: Fixed ↑ not moving from the editor to the inline title when there are no properties.
• Note composer: Fixed “Extract this heading” not preserving the newline when there is only one newline between the section and the next heading.

Developers

• Replaced MathJax with Temml for rendering math in Live Preview and Reading mode.
• Editor: Each line of a math block ($$) now has the .HyperMD-math class.
• Settings: Added optional SettingDefinitionItem#id for setting a unique ID on individual settings. Think of it like <div key={key} /> in React. Use it to differentiate between sibling settings that share a name, or to keep a stable reference when a setting or setting page is renamed.

Android: Fixed bug causing editor to accidentally switch from reading mode to edit mode while scrolling.
