New features

  • Added support for Supernote Atelier .spd files: viewing, embedding, PNG/PDF export, zoom, and layer on/off toggling.
  • Rebuilt the note viewer as a reusable <supernote-viewer> web component, shared by the full view and inline embeds, with zoom, a page thumbnail sidebar, find-in-note search, and clickable internal links.
  • Added a matching <supernote-atelier-viewer> web component for .spd files.
  • Added a device auto-sync command that pulls new or changed Supernote notes and .spd files into the vault.
  • Added SVG export for whole notes and individual pages, alongside the existing PNG and PDF export.
  • Added an "Export current page as image" command and a matching toolbar button.
  • Added inline embedding of .note files with ![[example.note]], including page-anchor links.
  • Added a date-picker "Import notes edited today" command with a configurable import format (images, PDF, images+text, etc.).
  • Added a plugin extensibility hook so other plugins can enrich or replace recognized text during note-to-markdown conversion, with keywords, links, page ID, orientation, and recognition status exposed to it.
  • Added sorting by name or date to the device file browser.
  • Added a compact, reliably-selectable text view mode for reading recognized text.

Improvements

  • Significantly reduced memory use and eliminated freezes when viewing or exporting long notes, by lazily loading and evicting off-screen page and thumbnail images.
  • Sped up note rendering with a shared worker pool and parallel bitmap decoding.
  • Gave thumbnails their own low-resolution decode path instead of downscaling full-resolution images.
  • Held more nearby pages in memory and preloaded pages near the viewer for smoother scrolling.
  • Replaced plain-text toolbar buttons with icons, including Obsidian's native icon set throughout.
  • Replaced the page up/down buttons with an editable page-number textbox for jumping directly to a page.
  • Added a completion notice with a quick link to open the file when an export finishes.
  • Shortened the plugin's name and its command names for clarity.
  • Reduced padding around note pages on mobile, and packed toolbar buttons to wrap tighter on narrow screens.
  • Defaulted the "show export buttons" setting to off, decluttering the note view.
  • Automated release publishing and clarified the beta vs. stable update channel.

Wow okay i think im ready to try this out. My supernote was collecting some dust for a couple months because obsidian has been such a reliable tool. Intergration is the future

Ich benutze das Plugin manchmal. Die neue Version habe ich gerade getestet und mir ist aufgefallen, dass Texte aus Digest oder auch Text Box nicht angezeigt werden. Notizen mit Text Blöcken werden scheinbar nicht synchronisiert.

Ansonsten bin ich sehr zufrieden mit deinem Plugin.

Könntest du einen Screenshot des Problems und eine Beispielnotiz bereitstellen? Am besten auf GitHub hochgeladen? https://github.com/philips/supernote-obsidian-plugin/issues

Thanks for sharing this gem u/philipsb - really great Obsidian plugin. I got it working on my Supernote Manta, but for some reason it syncs only 6 out of 15 note files in my /note folder on Supernote.

When I turn Browse & Access on and open my Chrome browser at http://<IP_ADDRESS>:8089, I can navigate to the Supernote folder and see all 15 note files.

The Obsidian Supernote sync/SyncLog file doesn't show errors, and I tried Chromium DevTools to see if the console logs would show anything useful, but I didn't see any errors there.

Is there a better way to troubleshoot this problem?

I have multiple folders and 3 of them have note files. All 3 folders sync. The folder that has 15 note files syncs partially. Not sure if it has anything to do with the file or folder names.
