Minor Improvements

Switching between Preview and Source Mode in Obsidian now works as expected. The collaborators' names are semi-transparent - unless you hover over them - to no longer hide text. The initial popup that asks for your name is nicer.

  • Fixed: Switching between Preview and Source Mode in Obsidian
  • Improvement: Collaborator names are semi-transparent unless hovered
  • Improvement: Nicer initial popup for name entry

Pin shared notes

When you start or join a session, the note gets pinned automatically, so it can not be closed by accident.

  • Auto-pin notes when joining a session

feature

  • Auto-create file when joining via URL
  • Notification when someone joins your session

Hide Markdown syntax in the web editor

Similar to the standard editor in Obsidian, the Peerdraft web editor now hides Markdown syntax, unless you are currently editing it. This should be easier on the eye, especially for people who are not used to Markdown.

  • Markdown syntax hidden by default
  • Syntax appears when editing
  • Better for non-Markdown users

Fixed cleanup of Obsidian editor after session closed

When you closed a shared session in Obsidian, the editor wasn't properly cleaned. The information about collaborators was still visible. This is fixed now and the editor will not show the collaborator's "ghosts".

  • Removed collaborator "ghosts" visibility

feature

Live preview on the web

As popular as Markdown is becoming, your collaborators on the web may not be totally used to working with it. That's why their editing experience is a big priority for us. As a first step we introduce a live preview. It will show how your Markdown content will appear when rendered, providing instant feedback as you type or make changes. If some of them only want to read the document and don't need to edit it themselves they can even hide the editor completely. The preview will still be updated in real-time.

  • Live preview shows rendered Markdown
  • Instant feedback while typing
  • Option to hide editor for read-only view
  • Real-time updates even when editor is hidden
