Screen Annotation & Presentation

Features

• Added Canvas Presentations, turning Excalidraw frames into centered full-screen slides with drag-to-reorder support and responsive fade, slide, or zoom transitions in either direction.
• Added Screen Annotation on macOS, with a customizable global shortcut, a movable drawing toolbar, live or frozen screen backgrounds, multi-display support, and native controls for editing selected element styles across consecutive drawings.
• Added flexible Screen Annotation export options for saving clean output without editing controls, covering the full screen or a selected region, to a new or existing Excalidraw file, the clipboard, or a custom PNG/JPEG location.

Optimizations

• Added Original, Balanced, and Compact image quality presets for Screen Annotation, remembered separately for each save destination.
• Improved Screen Annotation saving with a background task queue and off-screen document updates, so annotations can be submitted without interrupting the active canvas.
• Added recent Excalidraw save destinations and persistent toolbar placement, format, quality, and destination preferences.
• Presentation slide order and transition settings are now stored per drawing, while slide previews refresh when canvas frames change.
