marka.md v1.5.12

v1.5.12

v1.5.12 is a focused scroll, sidebar, and onboarding polish patch.

fixed

• restored smooth proportional editor-preview scroll sync after the line-anchor sync path made preview scrolling feel sticky.
• removed the confusing standalone sidebar files shelf and kept favorites, tabs, folders, and context staging as the core file workflow.
• refreshed the demo document, quickstart tutorial, help tips, and command palette search for the current v1.5 feature set.
• kept the context tray and staged-file workflow clean while preserving the current v1.5 workspace updates.

notes

• This release keeps the signed updater setup unchanged.
• Thanks to everyone testing the v1.5 feedback loop and catching the scroll regression quickly.

marka.md v1.5.11

v1.5.11

v1.5.11 is a workspace polish patch for tabs, reading find, and print/PDF output.

changed

• added drag-to-reorder for open file tabs.
• opening an already-open file now focuses its existing tab instead of creating a duplicate.
• cmd/ctrl+f in reading mode now refocuses and selects the existing find input.
• favorites stay pinned when a folder section is closed.
• print/PDF output focuses the preview content and uses cleaner file naming.
• removed the extra guide line artifact in the favorites section.

contributors

thanks to @kennyyennk and @hoiyada7-maker for the PRs behind this patch.

marka.md v1.5.10

v1.5.10

v1.5.10 is a diagram and workspace polish release.

This release closes 3 issues: #60, #71, and #72.

added

• PlantUML preview: plantuml and puml code fences now show an explicit load preview action.
• PlantUML viewer: loaded PlantUML diagrams can open in the same focused zoom viewer as Mermaid.
• Persisted view mode: marka.md now remembers split, reading, or editor mode across launches.

improved

• Reading mode themes: the theme menu is available from reading mode, so palettes and text settings are easier to adjust while proofing.
• Context tray space: the context tray now appears only when files are staged.
• Default window size: new windows open larger for a more comfortable editor/sidebar/preview layout.
• Open With workflow: file launches and existing-window handoff are smoother.

thanks

• Thanks to @renwuli for requesting PlantUML support in #72.
• Thanks to @mshadmanrahman for the persisted view-mode request in #71.
• Thanks to @Durobert for the AI-agent workflow feedback in #60.
• Thanks to @hoiyada7-maker for the FILES, Open With, and single-instance workflow work that helped shape this release.
• Thanks to everyone testing the v1.5 feedback loop.

notes

• PlantUML remains explicit-load only, so local diagram text is not sent to plantuml.com just by opening a note.
• This release keeps the current signed updater and macOS private API setup unchanged.

marka.md v1.5.9

v1.5.9

v1.5.9 is a small workspace polish release for preview links, text selection, sidebar scrolling, and file switching.

This release closes 3 issues, and the v1.5 cycle has closed 12 issues so far.

added

• External preview links: http and https links clicked in the rendered preview now open in the system browser.
• Per-file scroll memory: editor and preview scroll positions are remembered while switching between files.

improved

• Selection sync: editor-to-preview and preview-to-editor text selection matching now uses rendered source-line metadata for better block-level targeting.
• Sidebar scrolling: long folder trees scroll more cleanly without horizontal spill.
• The split editor now passes its CodeMirror view through consistently, so selection sync works in the normal editor/preview layout.

thanks

• Thanks to @Icatme for the Mermaid viewer work and @hoiyada7-maker for the preview link, selection sync, scroll memory, and sidebar polish PR.
• Thanks to everyone reporting and testing the v1.5 feedback loop, including issues from @coolmanj, @spyderdsn, @akira82-ai, @gsanders300, @gzg1023, and @arijit4.

notes

• This release keeps the current signed updater and macOS private API setup unchanged.
• Selection sync remains best-effort for heavily formatted or repeated text, but it should now land in the right block more often.

marka.md v1.5.8

v1.5.8

v1.5.8 is a UI workflow polish release for file tabs, hidden files, preview navigation, and the first-run tutorial.

added

• Tab context menu: right-click open file tabs to use the same rename, copy path, reveal, open, and delete actions as the sidebar.
• Hidden dotfiles in the tree: dotfiles such as .env and .gitignore now appear in the folder sidebar.
• Selection sync: selecting matching text in the editor or preview now highlights the corresponding text on the other side.
• Heading anchors: rendered headings get GitHub-style IDs so in-document links can scroll to them.

improved

• The welcome tutorial buttons have stronger contrast, better wrapping, accessible progress dots, and reduced-motion support.
• Sidebar resizing, tree spacing, scrollbar styling, and empty folder layout are smoother.
• Release asset renaming now clears an existing clean DMG asset before renaming, which helps rerun release jobs without stale asset conflicts.

notes

• This release keeps the current v1.5 auto-update and signing setup unchanged.
• Selection sync is best-effort and works best with unique plain text selections.

marka.md v1.5.7

v1.5.7

v1.5.7 is a focused Windows bugfix release.

fixed

• Windows file associations: opening .md, .markdown, or .mdx files from Windows Explorer now loads the selected file when marka.md starts.

notes

• This reuses the existing pending-open-files flow, so the frontend behavior stays the same.
• macOS Finder open-with handling is unchanged.

marka.md v1.5.6

v1.5.6

v1.5.6 expands the sidebar into a real multi-folder workspace and makes marka.md more useful for mixed project folders.

added

• Multi-folder explorer: add more than one root folder and keep each root separated in the sidebar.
• Favorites: star files from the tree, pin them above the explorer, and reorder favorites by dragging.
• Open as text: unsupported-but-text files can be opened in the editor, with a per-extension choice remembered for the session.
• Local image preview: relative image links in markdown now resolve from the current file folder.

improved

• Closing the last sidebar root now clears the explorer instead of re-opening the previous folder.
• Markdown files restore split preview mode, while plain-text files switch to editor-only mode.
• The sidebar has a cleaner tree feel with lighter row states, root path labels, and better transparency coverage.

release workflow

• Manual release dispatch now builds the requested tag.
• Unsigned builds skip updater artifacts instead of injecting empty updater signing values.

marka.md v1.5.5

v1.5.5

v1.5.5 is a small workflow and navigation polish release.

added

• Copy Path / Copy Relative Path: sidebar context menus can copy absolute or root-relative paths.
• Reveal in File Manager: open a selected file or folder in Finder, Explorer, or the Linux file manager.
• Breadcrumb view controls: reading mode, titlebar visibility, and the theme menu now live beside the file actions.

improved

• Hidden-but-useful tool folders like .github, .vscode, .cursor, .claude, and .codex now show in the sidebar.
• Reading mode keeps its exit controls reachable even when the titlebar is hidden.
• README contributor guidance is shorter and clearer for first-time PRs.

security

• Updated the indirect Rust tar dependency from 0.4.45 to 0.4.46.
