+
+## Fixed
+- Cannot type in embedded web forms. In certain cases, typing within these embeds would trigger Excalidraw hotkeys instead of interacting with the embedded content. [#2403](https://github.com/zsviczian/obsidian-excalidraw-plugin/issues/2403)

+
+## New
+- **Flexible Auto-Export Location:** Take control of where your auto-exported .png, .svg, and .excalidraw files are saved. Addressing a long-standing request, you can now define custom output paths using the new **Excalidraw Hooks**.
+  - Implement the \`onImageExportPathHook\` callback in your ExcalidrawAutomate startup script to control the *destination path*.
+    - Get the skeleton script via plugin settings or download it [here](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zsviczian/obsidian-excalidraw-plugin/refs/heads/master/src/constants/assets/startupScript.md).
+
+- **Control Auto-Export Trigger:** Use the \`onTriggerAutoexportHook\` in your startup script to decide *if* and *how* auto-export runs for a file, based on its properties or frontmatter, *before* the export path is determined.
+
+- **Improved "Open Excalidraw drawing":** The Command Palette command now searches the *entire Vault* for the matching Excalidraw file when used on an embedded .svg or .png, useful when exports are in different folders.
+
+- **Placeholder Files for New Embeds:** When embedding a new drawing as PNG/SVG via the Command Palette, empty placeholder files are now created immediately based on your auto-export setting. This ensures Obsidian correctly updates links if you rename the file soon after creation (when "Keep filenames in sync" is on).
+
+- **Paste Obsidian URLs into Excalidraw:** Pasting an Obsidian URL for an image or file into Excalidraw now inserts the associated image directly into the drawing.
+
+- **\`onImageFilePathHook\` Drag & Drop Support:** The \`onImageFilePathHook\` (for controlling location/filename of *embedded* files) is now triggered when dragging and dropping files into Excalidraw from outside Obsidian, matching the existing behavior for pasting.

-
-## New
-- **Shade Master Script**: A new script that allows you to modify the color lightness, hue, saturation, and transparency of selected Excalidraw elements, SVG images, and nested Excalidraw drawings. When a single image is selected, you can map colors individually. The original image remains unchanged, and a mapping table is added under ${String.fromCharCode(96)}## Embedded Files${String.fromCharCode(96)} for SVG and nested drawings. This helps maintain links between drawings while allowing different color themes.
-- New Command Palette Command: "Duplicate selected image with a different image ID". Creates a copy of the selected image with a new image ID. This allows you to add multiple color mappings to the same image. In the scene, the image will be treated as if a different image, but loaded from the same file in the Vault.

You can now set the number of concurrent workers that render your embedded images.

-- Moved pen-related settings under ${String.fromCharCode(96)}Excalidraw appearance and behavior${String.fromCharCode(96)} to their sub-heading called ${String.fromCharCode(96)}Pen${String.fromCharCode(96)}.
-- Minor error fixing and performance optimizations when loading and updating embedded images.
-- Color maps in ${String.fromCharCode(96)}## Embedded Files${String.fromCharCode(96)} may now include color keys "stroke" and "fill". If set, these will change the fill and stroke attributes of the SVG root element of the relevant file.

-- **Hover Preview**: Disabled hover preview for back-of-the-note cards to reduce distractions.

-## New Features
-- **Image Cropping Snaps to Objects**: When snapping is enabled in the scene, image cropping now aligns to nearby objects.  
-- **Session Persistence for Pen Mode**: Excalidraw remembers the last pen mode when switching between drawings within the same session.
-
-## Refactoring
-- **Mermaid Diagrams**: Excalidraw now uses its own Mermaid package, breaking future dependencies on Obsidian's Mermaid updates. This ensures stability and includes all fixes and improvements made to Excalidraw Mermaid since February 2024. The plugin file size has increased slightly, but this change significantly improves maintainability while remaining invisible to users.  
-- **MathJax Optimization**: MathJax (LaTeX equation SVG image generation) now loads only on demand, with the package compressed to minimize the startup and file size impact caused by the inclusion of Mermaid.  
-- **On-Demand Language Loading**: Non-English language files are now compressed and load only when needed, counterbalancing the increase in file size due to Mermaid and improving load speeds.  
-- **Codebase Restructuring**: Improved type safety by removing many ${String.fromCharCode(96)}//@ts-ignore${String.fromCharCode(96)} commands and enhancing modularity. Introduced new management classes: **CommandManager**, **EventManager**, **PluginFileManager**, **ObserverManager**, and **PackageManager**. Further restructuring is planned for upcoming releases to improve maintainability and stability.

-  - Text Element cursor-color matches the text color.
-- New script in script store: [Image Occlusion](https://github.com/zsviczian/obsidian-excalidraw-plugin/blob/master/ea-scripts/Image%20Occlusion.md) by [@TrillStones](https://github.com/TrillStones) 🙏
-
-## Fixed
-- Excalidraw icon on the **ribbon menu kept reappearing** every time you reopen Obsidian [#2115](https://github.com/zsviczian/obsidian-excalidraw-plugin/issues/2115)
-- In pen mode, when **single-finger panning** is enabled, Excalidraw should still **allow actions with the mouse**.
-- When **editing a drawing in split mode** (drawing is on one side, markdown view is on the other), editing the markdown note sometimes causes the drawing to re-zoom and jump away from the selected area.
-- Hover-Editor compatibility resolved [2041](https://github.com/zsviczian/obsidian-excalidraw-plugin/issues/2041)
--  ${String.fromCharCode(96)}ExcalidrawAutomate.create() ${String.fromCharCode(96)} will now correctly include the markdown text in templates above Excalidraw Data and below YAML front matter. This also fixes the same issue with the **Deconstruct Selected Element script**.
