Excalidraw link not opening file? #1

Open jpmoo opened 2 years ago

jpmoo commented 2 years ago

I'm on 28.2 on a MacBook and everything's working well, except that I can't get the Excalidraw link to open after the file's been created and saved. Clicking on the link yields "No Match" and asks me to create a new header. Path, etc., are all correct and the file exists. Any hints?

Same issue here. FYI, I have installed excalidraw as a PWA via chrome and I can double click the .excalidraw files and open them in chrome.

Are you sure the file was successfully converted to .svg? I'm also on 28(doom) and Macbook Pro. I've had some issues after installing(using brave instead of chrome doesn't work). After switching to chrome, excalidraw_export command threw some errors so the .svg was not created. It turns out --rename_fonts=true caused the issue, so I made a fork invoking this command without the flag. After that, it started to work fine.

Hi @xiaoxinghu , Could you tell me how to install excalidraw as a PWA via chrome? I found there is no File Handling API flag in Chrome flag. My chrome is latest stable version 116.0.5845.96, Ubuntu 20.04 OS. Thank you.

I think there should be this icon on the right side of the search bar:

I'm on MacOS though, so maybe it's different

@PiotrBosak Thank you. It's hidden in the setting menu...

But how strange it is there is no File handling API flag in chrome flag. Is it renamed or deleted?
