Advanced Canvas v3.1.3 By Developer-Mike

Fixed moving collapsed group causing corrupted canvas history

Added default edge direction setting

Added Hot-Reload for portals

Fixed clone node command

Easy Typing v5.5.4 By yaozhuwa

Refactored the documentation to make it more concise and clear.

Enhanced the delete function by adding a toggle switch, which is enabled by default but can be turned off in settings.

Enhanced the delete function: when deleting ordered lists, the subsequent list numbering will be updated.

Strict double line breaks: support for double line breaks after code blocks.

Fixed a bug where deleting empty lines within code blocks would remove the list code block.

Added several new features to enhance the editing experience.

Optimized the delete function for empty list items and block quotes for a smoother experience.

Added a shortcut command to jump to a new line; the default shortcut is CMD/Ctrl+Enter, which conflicts with Obsidian shortcuts and needs to be set manually.

Optimized the paste function for code blocks by removing unnecessary smart indentation.

Added a toggle comment command (CMD/Ctrl+/) to switch between commenting out code blocks and regular text (currently supports comments for several common programming languages), which conflicts with the built-in comment shortcut in Obsidian and requires manual shortcut setting.

Currently supports the following languages:

‘js’: ’//‘,

‘javascript’: ’//‘,

‘ts’: ’//‘,

‘typescript’: ’//‘,

‘py’: ’#‘,

‘python’: ’#‘,

‘rb’: ’#‘,

‘ruby’: ’#‘,

‘java’: ’//‘,

‘c’: ’//‘,

‘cpp’: ’//‘,

‘cs’: ’//‘,

Caution

Notice: The following plugins have not yet passed code scrutiny and therefore have not been added to the Community Plugins. Before installing, please make sure you have fully understood and accepted the potential security risks involved.

Weaver By Vasile Campeanu

Integrates a ChatGPT-like interface directly into the editor.
The original author has returned after a year and released a pre-release version with a complete rewrite. Some previous features are currently missing.
A few important notes:

Theme Compatibility: Weaver is currently developed using the minimal theme, which means there may be compatibility issues with other themes.

Mobile Support: The mobile version of Weaver is not supported yet.

Customization Caution: Please avoid customizing the chat interface using the CSS classes at this time, as some classes may change before the public release.
