    OpenNavo editorialAdded to Homebrew Aug 27 05:29

    Fixes external-file access, linked-folder refresh and navigation, collaboration loading, iPad interactions, and a macOS drag-and-drop monitor; refines group menus.

    Bug fixed

    • Fixed remaining permission errors when opening external drawings from Files, reopening them from Temporary, or accessing Linked Folders on iPhone and iPad.
    • Fixed Linked Folders on iPhone and iPad failing to refresh while File Provider content was still downloading, with clearer availability feedback.
    • Fixed collaboration rooms on iPhone and iPad occasionally remaining stuck on the loading screen.
    • Fixed Linked Folder drawings sometimes losing their containing folder context, which could affect sharing and return navigation.
    • Fixed iPad Sidebar scrolling not responding when a gesture started over a folder row.
    • Fixed iPad file transitions using a matching item from an inactive tab.
    • Fixed a macOS drag-and-drop event monitor remaining registered after its view disappeared.

    Optimizations

    • Refined File Home and group menus on Mac and iPad, including group-specific imports and consistent Sidebar section controls.

  2. 2.4.1

    PatchAug 14 · Fri

    OpenNavo editorialAdded to Homebrew Aug 14 13:07

    Adds linked cloud storage and visual conflict resolution, unifies storage navigation, and fixes file access, folder names, trash, toolbar reordering and macOS 15 screen capture.

    Features

    • Added Linked Cloud Storage for OneDrive, Dropbox, Google Drive, and WebDAV (Beta), available across Mac, iPad, and iPhone alongside local linked folders.
    • Added cloud conflict resolution with visual previews, allowing you to compare local and remote versions before choosing which one to keep.

    Optimizations

    • Unified Linked Storage navigation, sorting, context menus, loading feedback, and file transitions across macOS and compact iOS layouts.
    • Renamed the built-in storage section to My Files for clearer behavior when iCloud Sync is unavailable or disabled.

    Bug fixed

    • Fixed external file and Linked Folder access on iOS, including temporary open-in-place files and security-scoped folder permissions.
    • Fixed Linked Folder names not updating after the source folder was renamed outside ExcalidrawZ.
    • Fixed Recently Deleted sometimes disappearing despite containing files and not fully emptying Trash.
    • Fixed toolbar reordering in iOS Settings.
    • Fixed Screen Annotation capture compatibility on macOS 15.

  3. 2.3.0

    Jul 30 · Thu

    OpenNavo editorialAdded to Homebrew Jul 30 16:27

    Adds full-screen canvas presentations and macOS screen annotation, with flexible export, image-quality presets, background saving and persistent destination preferences.

    Features

    • Added Canvas Presentations, turning Excalidraw frames into centered full-screen slides with drag-to-reorder support and responsive fade, slide, or zoom transitions in either direction.
    • Added Screen Annotation on macOS, with a customizable global shortcut, a movable drawing toolbar, live or frozen screen backgrounds, multi-display support, and native controls for editing selected element styles across consecutive drawings.
    • Added flexible Screen Annotation export options for saving clean output without editing controls, covering the full screen or a selected region, to a new or existing Excalidraw file, the clipboard, or a custom PNG/JPEG location.

    Optimizations

    • Added Original, Balanced, and Compact image quality presets for Screen Annotation, remembered separately for each save destination.
    • Improved Screen Annotation saving with a background task queue and off-screen document updates, so annotations can be submitted without interrupting the active canvas.
    • Added recent Excalidraw save destinations and persistent toolbar placement, format, quality, and destination preferences.
    • Presentation slide order and transition settings are now stored per drawing, while slide previews refresh when canvas frames change.
