Obsidian 1.9.14 Desktop (Public)

By Steven Van ·

No longer broken Improved performance when opening quick switcher and command palette when using the latest Obsidian 1.9 installer (Electron v35+).

Obsidian 1.9.14 fixes several bugs across search, Bases and desktop windows. Quick switcher and command palette open faster on the latest Obsidian 1.9 installer running Electron v35+, and Global Search no longer reports an inaccurate result count.

  • Word count is now hidden in the status bar when a base file is focused.
  • Fixed lag when resizing table columns in Bases.
  • file.hasTag('#tag') is no longer case-sensitive, so file.hasTag('test') and file.hasTag('TEST') return the same results.
  • The contains function now correctly handles nested tags: tags.contains("A") now also returns results containing #A/B.
  • Formulas using this now work if a Base file is embedded inside Canvas, and resolve to null if the Base is not in the sidebar and not embedded.
  • Pop-out windows now reopen correctly after quitting the app.

The installer has been updated to use Electron v37.6.0, which requires downloading the latest installer and may improve performance for users on macOS Tahoe.
