Changelog

Unreleased

Breaking Changes

  • appState.openDialog type was changed from null | string to null | { name: string }. #7336

0.17.1 (2023-11-28)

Fixes

  • Umd build for browser since it was breaking in v0.17.0 #7349. Also make sure that when using Vite, the process.env.IS_PREACT is set as "true" (string) and not a boolean.
define: {
  "process.env.IS_PREACT": JSON.stringify("true"),
}

Excalidraw Library

Fixes

  • Disable caching bounds for arrow labels #7343

0.17.0 (2023-11-14)

Features

  • Added support for disabling image tool (also disabling image insertion in general, though keeps support for importing from .excalidraw files) #6320.

    For disabling image you need to set 👇

    UIOptions.tools = {
      image: false
    }
    
  • Support excalidrawAPI prop for accessing the Excalidraw API #7251.

  • Export getCommonBounds helper from the package #7247.

  • Support frames via programmatic API #7205.

  • Export elementsOverlappingBBox, isElementInsideBBox, elementPartiallyOverlapsWithOrContainsBBox helpers for filtering/checking if elements within bounds. #6727

  • Regenerate ids by default when using transform api and also update bindings by 0.5px to avoid possible overlapping #7195

  • Add onChange, onPointerDown, onPointerUp api subscribers #7154.

  • Support props.locked for setActiveTool #7153.

  • Add selected prop for MainMenu.Item and MainMenu.ItemCustom components to indicate active state. #7078

Fixes

  • Double image dialog on image insertion #7152.

Breaking Changes

  • The Ref support has been removed in v0.17.0 so if you are using refs, please update the integration to use the excalidrawAPI #7251.

  • Additionally ready and readyPromise from the API have been discontinued. These APIs were found to be superfluous, and as part of the effort to streamline the APIs and maintain simplicity, they were removed in version v0.17.0 #7251.

  • useDevice hook's return value was changed to differentiate between editor and viewport breakpoints. #7243

Build

  • Support Preact #7255. The host needs to set process.env.IS_PREACT to true

    When using vite or any build tools, you will have to make sure the process is accessible as we are accessing process.env.IS_PREACT to decide whether to use the preact build.

    Since Vite removes env variables by default, you can update the Vite config to ensure its available 👇

    define: {
      "process.env.IS_PREACT": process.env.IS_PREACT,
    },

0.8.0 (2021-05-15)

Excalidraw API

These section lists the updates which may affect your integration, so it is recommended to go through this when upgrading the version.

Features

  • Support updating any appState properties in updateScene API. Earlier only appState.viewBackgroundColor was supported, now any attribute can be updated with this API.

  • Expose serializeAsJSON helper that we use when saving Excalidraw scene to a file #3538.

  • Add support to render custom UI in the top right corner via renderTopRightUI prop #3539, #3572 .

    This also removes the GitHub icon, keeping it local to the https://excalidraw.com app.

Fixes

  • The encryption shield icon is now removed from excalidraw package as it was specific to excalidraw app and is now rendered via renderFooter prop. In case you were hiding this icon earlier, you need not do that anymore #3577.

    Now appState is also passed to renderFooter prop.

Excalidraw Library

These section lists the updates made to the excalidraw library and will not affect the integration.

Features

  • Shortcut key for nerd stats #3552.
  • Better rendering of curved rectangles #3562.
  • Improved freedraw #3512.
  • Add shortcut for dark mode #3543.
  • Adds rounded icons, joins and caps.#3521.

Fixes

  • Exporting freedraw with color to svg #3565.
  • Handle render errors #3557.
  • Restore on paste or lib import #3558.
  • Improve mobile user experience #3508.
  • Prevent selecting .visually-hidden elements #3501.

Perf

  • Reduce SVG export size by more than half by reducing precision to 2 decimal places #3567.
  • Remove backdrop-filter to improve perf #3506

0.7.0 (2021-04-26)

Excalidraw API

Features

  • scrollToContent API now supports passing just a single Excalidraw element, or none at all (which will default to current elements on the scene) #3482.

    BREAKING CHANGE

  • Make library local to given excalidraw instance (previously, all instances on the same page shared one global library) #3451.

    • Added prop onLibraryChange which if supplied will be called when library is updated.

    • Added attribute libraryItems to prop initialData which can be used to load excalidraw with existing library items.

    • Assign a unique id to the excalidraw component. The id can be accessed via ref.

    BREAKING CHANGE

  • Bind the keyboard events to component and added a prop handleKeyboardGlobally which if set to true will bind the keyboard events to document #3430.

    BREAKING CHANGE

    • Earlier keyboard events were bind to document but now its bind to Excalidraw component by default. So you will need to set handleKeyboardGlobally to true if you want the previous behaviour (bind the keyboard events to document).
  • Recompute offsets on scroll of the nearest scrollable container #3408. This can be disabled by setting detectScroll to false.

  • Add onPaste prop to handle custom clipboard behaviours #3420.

Fixes

  • Changing z-index of elements (sorting them below/above other elements) now updates their version and versionNonce (only applies to the selected elements). This fix will allow you account for z-index changes if you're syncing just the elements that changed (and not the whole scene) #3483.

  • Only handle cut/paste events inside excalidraw #3484.

  • Make history local to a given Excalidraw instance. This fixes a case where history was getting shared when you have multiple Excalidraw components on the same page #3481.

  • Use active Excalidraw component when editing text. This fixes a case where text editing was not working when you have multiple Excalidraw components on the same page #3478.

  • Fix library being pasted off-center #3462.

  • When switching theme, apply it only to the active Excalidraw component. This fixes a case where the theme was getting applied to the first Excalidraw component if you had multiple Excalidraw components on the same page #3446.

Refactor

  • BREAKING CHANGE

    • Removed exposing getSyncableElements helper which was specific to excalidraw app collab implementation #3471. If you happened to use it, you can easily reimplement it yourself using the newly exposed isInvisiblySmallElement helper:

      const getSyncableElements = (elements: readonly ExcalidrawElement[]) =>
        elements.filter((el) => el.isDeleted || !isInvisiblySmallElement(el));
      

Build

  • Add vendor prefixes to css rules #3476.

Types

  • Renamed the following types in case you depend on them (via #3427):
    • DataStateExportedDataState
    • LibraryDataExportedLibraryData

Excalidraw Library

Features

  • Support tab-to-indent when editing text #3411.

  • App now breaks into mobile view using the component dimensions, not viewport dimensions. This fixes a case where the app would break sooner than necessary when the component's size is smaller than viewport #3414.

  • Add screenshots to manifest.json #3369.

  • Enable drop event on the whole component #3406.

Fixes

  • Focus on last active element when dialog closes #3447.

  • Fix incorrectly caching png file handle #3407.

  • Fix popover position incorrect on Safari for non-zero offsets/scroll #3399.


0.6.0 (2021-04-04)

Excalidraw API

Features

  • Add UIOptions prop to customise canvas actions which includes customising background color picker, clear canvas, export, load, save, save as & theme toggle #3364. Check the readme for more details.
  • Calculate width/height of canvas based on excalidraw component (".excalidraw" selector) & also resize and update offsets whenever the dimensions of excalidraw component gets updated #3379. You also don't need to add a resize handler anymore for excalidraw as its handled now in excalidraw itself.

    BREAKING CHANGE

    • width/height props have been removed. Instead now it takes 100% of width and height of the container so you need to make sure the container in which you are rendering Excalidraw has non zero dimensions (It should have non zero width and height so Excalidraw can match the dimensions of containing block)
  • Calculate offsets when excalidraw container resizes using resize observer api #3374.
  • Export types for the package so now it can be used with typescript #3337. The types are available at @excalidraw/excalidraw/types.
  • Add renderCustomStats prop to render extra stats on host, and expose setToastMessage API via refs which can be used to show toast with custom message #3360.
  • Support passing a CSRF token when importing libraries to prevent prompting before installation. The token is passed from https://libraries.excalidraw.com using the token URL key #3329.
  • BREAKING CHANGE

    Use location.hash when importing libraries to fix installation issues. This will require host apps to add a hashchange listener and call the newly exposed excalidrawAPI.importLibrary(url) API when applicable #3320. Check the readme for more details.
  • Append location.pathname to libraryReturnUrl default url #3325.
  • Support image elements #3424.

Build

  • Expose separate builds for dev and prod and support source maps in dev build #3330. Check the readme for more details.

    BREAKING CHANGE

    • If you are using script tag to embed excalidraw then the name of the file will have to be updated to excalidraw.production.min.js instead of excalidraw.min.js. If you want to use dev build you can use excalidraw.development.js

Refactor

BREAKING CHANGE

  • Rename the API setCanvasOffsets exposed via ref to refresh #3398.

Excalidraw Library

Features

  • Reopen library menu on import from file #3383.

  • Use arrow function where possible #3315.

0.5.0 (2021-03-21)

Excalidraw API

Features

  • Set the target to window.name if present during excalidraw libraries installation so it opens in same tab for the host. If window.name is not set it will open in a new tab #3299.
  • Add name prop to indicate the name of the drawing which will be used when exporting the drawing. When supplied, the value takes precedence over intialData.appState.name, the name will be fully controlled by host app and the users won't be able to edit from within Excalidraw #3273.
  • Export API setCanvasOffsets via ref to set the offsets for Excalidraw#3265.

    BREAKING CHANGE

    • offsetLeft and offsetTop props have been removed now so you have to use the setCanvasOffsets via ref to achieve the same.
  • Export API to export the drawing to canvas, svg and blob #3258. For more info you can check the readme
  • Add a theme prop to indicate Excalidraw's theme. #3228. When this prop is passed, the theme is fully controlled by host app.
  • Support libraryReturnUrl prop to indicate what URL to install libraries to #3227.

Refactor

  • BREAKING CHANGE

    • Rename prop initialData.scrollToCenter and setScrollToCenter API exposed via ref to initialData.scrollToContent and setScrollToContent respectively#3261.
  • Rename appearance to theme #3237.

    BREAKING CHANGE

    • Since appState.appearance is renamed to appState.theme so wherever appState.appearance including initialData.appState.appearance should be renamed to appState.theme and initialData.appState.theme respectively. If the appearance was persisted earlier, now it needs to passed as theme.
    • The class Appearance_dark is renamed to theme--dark.
    • The class Appearance_dark-background-none is renamed to theme--dark-background-none.

Excalidraw Library
