# Obsidian 1.13.3 Desktop (Early access)

By Steven Van · 2026-07-21

Improvements Live Preview: When the image is the only text on a line, the editor line height is no longer preserved to match the image height.

The latest early-access build of [Obsidian](<https://creatorstoolbox.com/apps/obsidian>) desktop, version **1.13.3**, focuses on image handling in Live Preview and adds a few smaller fixes.

- When an image is the only text on a line, the editor no longer forces the line height to match the image's height.

- Image embeds in Live Preview get a new selection state and a "zoom" button.

- The image lightbox now supports click and drag to pan around an image.

- File Recovery's history list supports keyboard navigation: arrow keys move through the records.

- The Unique Note Creator plugin now links to its own settings if it can't find a template.

- Fixed image resizing when an image sits inside a Markdown table.

- Fixed the unique URI action not opening a new note in the correct tab when a paneType option is passed.

The build is available now on the desktop catalyst (early access) channel, per the [changelog entry](<https://obsidian.md/changelog/2026-07-21-desktop-v1.13.3/>) for July 21, 2026.
