Shiny new things Obsidian Sync includes a new view that shows a collection of synchronized files. Activate it using the "Sync: Show Sync history" command. You can now click inside a page preview to edit in-place. Improvements You can now create new footnotes by clicking on the hover preview of a footnote ID. Spellcheck is now disabled inside prompts like the quick switcher and command palette. Added support for x.com embeds in addition to twitter.com. Right-clicking in the gutter of a Markdown view now lets you quickly toggle line numbers or readable line width. The "Make copy of" menu item has been renamed to "Duplicate" on macOS to match OS conventions. Obsidian Publish collaborators can now edit content-related site options, including the order of sidebar items. The "Close all other tabs" command no longer closes pinned tabs. Frontmatter is now hidden inside embedded editors such as Canvas file nodes and page preview. No longer broken Fixed choppy scrolling between linked Markdown views. Fixed issue where "clear" would overlap text inside prompts like the quick switcher. Fixed bug where search queries using line:, block:, and task: only returned matching files instead of the mat
