Desktop 0.48.0

Last cycle, we focused on improving Import and Export. This time around it's all about polish. We’ve been working through the app, focusing on stability and improvements, including a surprising number of scroll-related bugs (who knew scrolling could be so dramatic?)

This release is packed with fixes that should make your daily flow noticeably better. As always, a huge thanks to all of you who reported issues, we seriously couldn’t do this without you.

Meanwhile, we’re also putting the final touches on something big. Some of you might already know what’s coming…

Stay tuned!

We’ve given the List View some well-deserved attention. It’s a simple and practical way to manage your objects, and now it’s smoother to use:

A new ToC menu on the right side of the Editor makes it easier to navigate and manage long pages. For a steady overview while editing, you can also open it in the sidebar.

Thanks for the contribution, @CamilleHbp!

You can now quickly add a new property directly from the Layout menu when configuring Group by in Kanban or Date Property in Calendar view.

When working with projects across years, you can now filter by Last Year, Current Year or Next Year – no need to manually enter date ranges.

When adding a bookmark, you’ll now see a preview of the link and have the option to include page content. This helps ensure you’re saving what you expect.

When you create a link with text selected, the selected text now pre-fills the input field, making link creation much faster.

Thanks to @sturdily & @C.c!

You can now embed a fully playable Spotify player in your pages using the new embed block.

Thanks for the contribution, @phil-gru!

The system Space Widget now remains visible when scrolling through widgets. This ensures the most important actions stay accessible.

Thanks to @VisualNotes for the suggestion!

When no matching results appear in the Add Widget search, you can now create a new object directly from your input, and a widget will be added for it right away.

Keep your most important Spaces at the top of the Vault for quicker navigation. Right-click the icon of a Space to open the pin/unpin option, and drag to reorder them as needed.

Quickly switch between your first 9 Spaces using ⌘ + 1–9 (or Ctrl on Windows/Linux).

Cycle through color and highlight options using new shortcuts: ⌘ + ⇧ + C for text color and ⌘ + ⇧ + H for highlight (reassignable in settings).

Thanks to @LarsB24!

Manually reordering objects in a Collection now removes existing sorting rules upon confirmation. This ensures the new order is preserved and avoids conflicts in the sorting logic.

When no sort is applied in a View, new objects are now automatically sorted by their creation date in descending order.

We tweaked our accent color palette for improved consistency across light and dark themes.

When you use the / command menu to add an image, file or video block, the correct system picker will now open automatically, skipping an extra click.

You can now assign a custom shortcut to copy an object’s deeplink from anywhere in the app.

Thanks to @siousu!

LaTeX formatting is now more precise: accidental use of $ symbols won’t unexpectedly trigger math mode.

Thanks to @Snomstor!

Clicking the YouTube logo in an embedded video now opens the video in your browser, making it easier to switch to YouTube when needed.

Thanks to @Khang!

We’ve repositioned the Edit button in Figma embed blocks so it no longer overlaps with the Fullscreen button.

Thanks to @Obe and @Felipe!
