v0.91.1-beta

[eliandoran]

💡 Key highlights

• The launcher bar can now be placed at the top instead of the left of the screen, with a full-width tab bar. See #654 for more information.

• A new theme is introduced called “TriliumNext" by @adoriandoran and @eliandoran. Settings on this theme are now displayed in a card layout. Redesigned tree action buttons.

• Native title bar buttons when native title bar is off for Windows and macOS.

• On Windows, on the TriliumNext theme there are window transparency effects if running under Windows, see Mica (Windows transparency effects) for screenshots. Unfortunately, it is plagued by a few bugs with Electron (the library we are using for the desktop application), see the link for more information.

• Updated Docker builds to Node 22. Be on the lookout for any potential issues, especially for less-tested platforms such as ARM.

🐞 Bugfixes

• Syntax highlight in code blocks only in edit mode

• To do lists not preserved on safe import.

• File type video with emoji in name will break the preview

• Attribute "jump to" for internal links not working anymore

✨ Improvements

• Add label definition type for standalone time by @mm21

• Remove resizer from backend log text area by @meichthys

• Use CodeMirror for backend log

• Importing single HTML file: prefer html title over filename by @maphew

• user configurable list of allowed html tags in import by @maphew

• General HTML support; now the editor supports more HTML tags and displays them appropriately.

  • Currently the import function is the only way to benefit from them, or modifying the source code manually by changing the note type.

• Change default icons for “Go to Previous Note” and “Go to next note” launcher buttons.

• Move toggle sidebar button near tab bar on horizontal layout.

• Mind map notes now are full-width by default (same as Canvas, for example).

As a Trilium user for many, many years, I just wanted to thank the entire TriliumNext team for your fantastic work.
Your releases are truly top-notch, and I'm absolutely thrilled to see each new one come out.
Keep up the good work!

[ups7]

Fixed formatting bar, modern UI/UX/theme, and better mobile usability (and a native app, if at all possible/feasible) were the things I thought would make Trilium even greater. It's amazing to see that you've already ticked the first one off, and the second one is coming!

Thank you to all the developers for taking the already great Trilium to the Next level!

[hasecilu]

Is there a way to force the dark theme always? I only access to it via Firefox and because I don't have any type of light/dark theme variable set (Openbox, Hyprland) the theme is always light. It plays very nice with Dark Reader extension though.

[adoriandoran]

For the moment, there is no way to force the dark theme. But will be very soon.

[adoriandoran]

It's on the way in #800.

[hasecilu]

That's great news, thanks!

[perfectra1n]

Please let me know if anyone has any suggestions to search improvements, or any examples / queries that don't return what they would expect.

[CobriMediaJulien]

@perfectra1n i´ve seen the script to weight the results. What do you think about adding the feature to set your own weighting based on your search results?

I would suggest we open a discussion and collect ideas and discuss improvements and possible implementation ideas.

[CobriMediaJulien]

@perfectra1n seems like highlighting words doesn´t work if you specify your search with e.g.
note.content = 'somestring'

would you like to take this one? I can open an improvement request (not sure if it´s a bug).

[perfectra1n]

Do you have any pictures or examples of what you're referring to?

[perfectra1n]

If this is what you're referring to - having the text highlight from an "advanced" search, yeah that'll be an improvement request as it hasn't been done before. This image is from Zadam's Trilium, which I believe showcases what you're asking about:

[CobriMediaJulien]

Yep. I mean it´s implemented for the normal search but not advanced quieres:

Would be awesome to have it for advanced queries because u can also search with regex. But maybe thats too much work. Haven´t looked into the code yet.

[diyoyo]

Thanks a lot for this release.
The new theme is quite satisfying 😃 👍

A few comments so far:

• Thanks for fixing (Bug report) Attribute "jump to" for internal links not working anymore #732
• Made a comment in Change layout of promoted attributes #538 : The "one column" thing is not suitable for very long lists of attributes.
• New bug (should I open a ticket since it's beta?) : the promoted attributes are no longer collapsible

[eliandoran]

@diyoyo ,

Thanks for the feedback!

New bug (should I open a ticket since it's beta?) : the promoted attributes are no longer collapsible

Any suggestions on how to implement it? The goal of the promoted attributes change was to get rid of it from the promoted section, any UX/UI ideas would be appreciated.

[mm21]

IMHO this change of moving promoted attributes out of the ribbon is the way to go. Personally I prefer having the whole ribbon at the bottom (like in https://github.com/eliandoran/breeze-trilium) -- maybe the exact placement could just be left up to the theme.

[maphew]

The beta download is almost 100mb larger than stable. Is that expected?

[perfectra1n]

If you want fancy fonts, you've gotta pay the price 😂
