[0.4.0] — 2026-08-08
You can get closer to a map
Ctrl/⌘ + scroll over a map zooms about the cursor; drag to pan; the toolbar gains + / − / Fit. A bare scroll still scrolls the note past the map, rather than trapping it.
This is the first release where zooming is worth doing. Narrowing the view used to magnify the linework along with the land, so a closer look gave you a bigger picture and nothing else — the coastline over a narrow channel drew 2px at ×4 and 32px at ×64. The ink now holds the width it had when the map was fitted, so the geometry grows and the drawing stays crisp. Your position survives a re-render, so editing a .cd file does not throw you back to the whole map while you are checking a number you zoomed in for.
A secret door stays secret
hidden was honoured on an ordinary line and dropped on a structure detail, so this drew the door on the players' map:
building cellar : A1..B2
door : at B2.s hidden
Written one indentation further out it was withheld correctly. Nothing reported the difference. If you keep secrets in a note you hand to your table, this is the release to be on.
The renderer underneath is Chartdown 0.6.0
The plugin versions on its own lane, and this jump to 0.4.0 marks the minor version behind it. Most of what you will notice comes from there: an ambient light: no longer washes over the map's own title and coordinates, a lamp on one level no longer lights the floor above it, and a theme's ink : fill= now reaches the title, compass, scale bar and coordinate letters instead of stopping at the map.
Chartdown 0.6.0 also refuses four things it used to accept in silence — a bare archetype word, a structure detail the slot cannot take, an address form nothing consumes, and an unchecked hex ledger line. A document that rendered before may now report an error in your note. In every case the map you were getting was not the map you asked for; the Chartdown 0.6.0 notes say what each one was.
