From Liam, one of the Obsidian devs: - Bookmarks can be reordered into bookmark groups - Support for more bookmark types (Files, Searches, Graphs, as well as Headings and Blocks) - Bookmarked files will show an icon in the tab header - Bookmarks can have a optional "title" that's independent from the filename. So you can give contextual names to your bookmarks (especially helpful for bookmarked searches and graphs) (edited) - The view is also keyboard navigable Export to PDF Better hotkeys? ## alpha build 1.2.0-alpha2 Improved - Updated Global Search UI. - Search UI now has a button to bookmark the current search. - Bookmarks: Stale bookmarks that were imported from Starred but the files no longer exist will now show a "?" next to them. - Bookmarks: Bookmarked Headings will now show a "H" icon, bookmarked blocks will show a Lego generic plastic building block. - Bookmarks: Added "Remove bookmark" command. - Bookmarks: Added "Bookmark search" command. - Bookmarks: Added context menu options to open bookmarks in new tab, new window. - Bookmarks: Added "Reveal in file explorer" context menu option. - Tab Groups can now be closed via the Tab Group dropdown menu. - Added "Close tab group" command - Updated styling of bookmark icon in tab header. - Clicking "Bookmark..." context menu option will always look up if there's an existing bookmark for that file before creating a new one.

Most notably, the Starred plugin is going away in favor of its successor: Bookmarks. - [Bookmarks](app://obsidian.md/index.html#bookmarks) — Meet the replacement to the Starred plugin. - [Search UI improvements](app://obsidian.md/index.html#search-ui-improvements) — The Global Search UI has undergone a refresh. - [Hotkey Settings improvements](app://obsidian.md/index.html#hotkey-settings-improvements) — Filter your hotkeys by assigned, unassigned. Even search by hotkey. - [Misc. Improvements](app://obsidian.md/index.html#misc-improvements) — Improvements to the quick switcher as well as new commands for controlling tabs. ## Bookmarks The Starred core plugin is going away. Introducing: **Bookmarks**. Bookmark just about anything in Obsidian: files, folders, graphs, searches, headings, blocks. Organize your bookmarks in the much more robust **Bookmark view**. Reorder bookmarks with drag-and-drop. Create _Bookmark Groups_ to organize your bookmarks into collapsible sections. ## Search UI Improvements  We've reorganized the Search UI to make things more intuitive and make room for more options. Like being able to bookmark search queries right from here:  ## Hotkey Settings Improvements ### New Filtering options  ### Search by hotkey  ## Misc. Improvements - Added Editor setting to open new tabs in the background. - Suggest modals now support "page down" and "page up" as well as "home" and "end" keys for faster keyboard navigation. - Links with folder paths will now automatically insert an alias to the base filename (e.g. `[[folder/file]]` will expand to `[[folder/file|file]]`) - Added "Close tab group" command as well as option to close a tab group from the tab group dropdown menu. ## Bugfixes - Canvas: Fixed query blocks not rendering in text cards. - Export to PDF will now always export in "light mode." - Fixed slider tooltip overlapping with cursor. - macOS: Fixed Export to PDF rendering the wrong font. - Fixed folding arrows being misaligned on list items. - macOS: double-clicking the sidebar close buttons in the window frame will no longer trigger the window getting fullscreened. - Fixed "Fold more" command not folding the current line if the cursor is on top of a heading. --- A complete list of previous changes can be found on [our forum](https://forum.obsidian.md/c/announcements/13).
