Canvas rendering improvements
Image embeds, note embeds with rendered markdown, custom hex colors, and style fixes for Obsidian Canvas rendering.
Canvas rendering just got an upgrade!
What's new
- Image embeds – file nodes referencing images (
.png,.jpg,.gif,.svg,.webp) now render the actual image inside the canvas node, with proper sizing and lazy loading - Note embeds with rendered markdown – file nodes pointing to
.mdfiles now display the note's rendered content (headings, lists, links, callouts, math, code highlighting) instead of just the filename - Rich text in text nodes – text nodes now render full markdown (GFM, wiki-links, callouts, math, syntax highlighting) instead of plain text
- Custom hex colors – nodes and edges with custom hex color values (e.g.
#ff6600) now render correctly, in addition to the 6 Obsidian color presets - Improved labels display – edge labels are now positioned correctly on edge lines and have background for better readability.
