Obsidian 1.10.0 Desktop (Early access)

By Steven Van ·

Breaking changes The "Use light mode" and "Use dark mode" commands have been removed. A new "Toggle light/dark mode" command has been added.

Obsidian 1.10.0 is out in early access for desktop, with most of the changes concentrated in Bases, plus an initial Bases API for plugin developers.

  • Bases gained a "Group by" option in the sort menu, table summaries (right-click a column and choose "Summarize..." to pick a built-in function or write your own), and a new list view that displays entries as bulleted or numbered lists with multi-line content.
  • Tables now support selection: full keyboard navigation, copy/paste, and undo/redo (Cmd/Ctrl-Z and Cmd/Ctrl-Shift-Z) for edits made while editing properties.
  • A new official Maps plugin, installable from the Community plugins directory, visualises base entries on a map and doubles as an example of building custom Bases view types against the new API.
  • Bases formulas gained a reduce() function for lists, an html() function for custom rendering, a random() function for randomising sort order, and support for timezone offsets in ISO 8601 datetime parsing.

The release also removes the separate "Use light mode" and "Use dark mode" commands in favour of a single "Toggle light/dark mode" command, so hotkeys bound to the old commands need updating. The "Change view" command has been renamed to "Switch view...".
