Excalidraw 2.6.7

Hoping to finally move on to 2.7.0... but still have one last bug to fix in 2.6.x!

Fixed

I misread a line in the Excalidraw package code... ended up breaking image loading in 2.6.6. The icon library script didn't work right, and updating nested drawings caused all images in the scene to be dropped from memory. This led to image placeholders in exports and broke copy-paste to Excalidraw.com and between drawings. I am surprised no one reported it! 😳

2.6.6

Fixed

• Images and LaTeX formulas did not update in the scene when the source was changed until the Excalidraw drawing was closed and reopened. #2105

Excalidraw 2.6.5

Fixed

• Text sizing issue in the drawing that is first loaded after Obsidian restarts #2086
• Excalidraw didn't load if there was a file in the Excalidraw folder with a name that starts the same way as the Scripts folder name. #2095
• OVERSIZED EXCALIDRAW TOOLBAR: Added a new setting under "Excalidraw Appearance and Behavior > Theme and Styling" called "Limit Obsidian Font Size to Editor Text." This setting is off by default. When enabled, it restricts Obsidian’s custom font size adjustments to editor text only, preventing unintended scaling of Excalidraw UI elements and other themes that rely on the default interface font size. Feel free to experiment with this setting to improve Excalidraw UI consistency. However, because this change affects the broader Obsidian UI, it’s recommended to turn it off if any layout issues arise. #2087

Excalidraw 2.6.5-beta-1

Fixed

• text sizing issue in the drawing first loaded after Obsidian restart #2086
• Excalidraw fails to load if Excalidraw folder includes a file with a filename starting with the same character sequence as the scripts folder. e.g. Script Folder is Excalidraw/Scripts and the Excalidraw folder has a file called Scripts-whatever.md #2095

Excalidraw 2.6.4

Fixed

• Error saving when cropping images embedded from a URL (not from a file in the Vault) #2096

Excalidraw 2.6.3

New

• Cropping PDF Pages
  • Improved PDF++ cropping: You can now double-click cropped images in Excalidraw to adjust the crop area, which will also appear as a highlight in PDF++. This feature applies to PDF cut-outs created in version 2.6.3 and beyond.
• Insert Last Active PDF Page as Image
  • New command palette action lets you insert the currently active PDF page into Excalidraw. Ideal for setups with PDF and Excalidraw side-by-side. You can assign a hotkey for quicker access. Cropped areas in Excalidraw will show as highlights in PDF++.

Fixed

• Fixed Close Settings button toggle behavior #2085
• Resolved text wrapping issues causing layout shifts due to trailing whitespaces #8714
• Aspect Ratio and Size Reset commands now function correctly with cropped images.
• Cropped Drawings: Adjustments to cropped Excalidraw drawings are now supported. However, for nested Excalidraw drawings, it's recommended to use area, group, and frame references instead of cropping.

Refactoring

• Further font loading optimizations on Excalidraw.com; no impact expected in Obsidian #8693
• Text wrapping improvements #8715
• Plugin initiation and error handling
