1.296.0 — A simpler start and What's New

This release shortens the everyday path: new installs begin with a smaller
settings page, Import questions is at the top of Practice, the less-used
practice actions sit under More actions, and an update now opens a short
local What's new note inside Obsidian.

What changed

  • What's new in Obsidian. After an update, a short note lists the changes in
    that version. It is bundled with the plugin, uses no network, appears once per
    version on each device, and stays quiet on a genuine first run so the Start
    here note owns onboarding. Reopen it with Show what's new from the command
    palette or Settings → Global → About.
  • Simple settings. New installs start with Practice, review, the Study agent
    and app settings. A single Show all settings switch reveals the full
    specialist tree and remembers the choice. Existing data files keep the full
    tree, and a deep link to an advanced page reveals it instead of being dropped.
  • Import at the top. Practice puts Import questions above presets and
    filters. It stays visible with AI off and opens the existing setup screen
    rather than hiding the entry point.
  • Clearer practice actions. Skip, mark known, bury, suspend and exclude move
    under More actions. Confidence and Submit remain the primary path.
  • Calmer imports. Course, unit, skill and other note properties wait behind
    Add details. Importing into an existing folder adds questions instead of
    stopping, and an import that produced no notes now links directly to the AI
    settings page when the agent may be waiting for file-edit permission.
  • Clearer confidence labels. The untouched default scale is now Guessing /
    Probably Right / Confident
    ; custom labels are left alone. Ribbon buttons also
    carry matching accessible labels.

Verification

node --test passes 2,549 tests. npm run check is clean across 350
source files
; main.js is current at 7,034,946 bytes from 353 modules.
Focused tests cover the bundled release data, first-install and update gating,
the command, the modal, Simple settings, the old-label migration and the practice
layouts. No dependency, provider, note schema or network path changed; the
What's new note is bundled locally and reads only per-device local storage.
