Full changelog
ZenNotes 2.13.4: editor, sidebar, export, and command fixes
A small release. Installers for macOS, Windows, and Linux (x64 + arm64) are attached below.
🐛 Fixes
-
"New Note in Current Folder" creates the note in the active note's folder. The command was using the folder the sidebar happened to be browsing, which does not follow the editor when you switch tabs, so with notes open from several folders the new note landed in the wrong directory. It now creates the note in the folder of the note you are actually editing, falling back to the browsed folder only when nothing is open. (#403, reported by @uNyanda)
-
Autocomplete popups keep their
Ctrl+J/Ctrl+Knavigation, even if you remap pane switching onto those keys. If you moved the "focus pane" shortcuts ontoCtrl+H/J/K/L(a common Vim setup), the pane-switch handler was swallowingCtrl+J/Ctrl+Kbefore the open popup, so the slash menu, the[[link picker, and the callout[!type picker stopped responding to those chords. An open autocomplete popup now owns the keyboard: its navigation wins over the pane-switch shortcut, which resumes the moment the popup closes. (reported by Tornado300 on Discord) -
The
mcontext-menu hint no longer shows on date subfolders that had no menu. Under Daily Notes, Weekly Notes, and Monthly Notes, the year and month rows are a virtual grouping by date rather than real folders, so they have no context menu, yet the sidebar still displayed themshortcut hint next to them and pressingmthere did nothing. Themhint now appears only on rows that actually have a context menu (real folders and the top-level date folders), so the shortcut and its hint stay in sync. (#402, reported by @uNyanda) -
PDF export can now match your preview, CSS snippets and all. With "Use theme for PDF export" turned on (Settings → PDF export), the export used your theme but ignored your CSS snippets and color tweaks, so tweaks you made in the preview (hiding a callout's leading break, a
page-break-inside: avoidrule, and the like) were dropped from the PDF. The export now injects those same snippet and tweak layers, so the PDF matches what you see on screen. The clean light-for-print default (toggle off) still ignores them. (#401, reported by @IVII1)
Keyboard-first and local-first, as always.
