Obsidian 1.7.4

What's new in this version:

Shiny new things:
- Obsidian Sync: the new Sync History view shows a list of edits across the vault, useful when collaborating on a shared vault. Activate it using the "Sync: Show Sync history" command
- You can now click inside a page preview to edit it without opening the note

Improvements:
Performance:
- Views now load only when visible, improving startup performance and memory usage. This might cause issues with some plugins. We have published a guide to help developers update their plugins
- Renaming files is now faster in large vaults
- Canvas: Improved performance when panning. There should no longer be a flicker when cards enter and exit the viewport. If you're still seeing related issues, please try switching to default theme
- Added a new screen in settings (General ? Advanced) to show the total app load time. You can also enable a toggle to get a notified when startup takes too long, including details for debugging
- Fixed choppy scrolling between linked Markdown views
- Editable page previews and footnotes
- Added a right-click menu for footnotes to delete both the footnote and its reference
- You can now create new footnotes by clicking on the hover preview of a footnote ID
- Pressing Esc now instantly closes the page preview while editing
- Page previews will stay open even if the window loses focus or the command palette appears

Obsidian URI:
Improvements to Obsidian URI new:
- Allows the use of clipboard instead of content to insert the contents of the clipboard
- Allows the use of prepend instead of append to add to the top of the file
- prepend and append will both attempt to merge properties
- Daily Notes: New daily Obsidian URI action to automatically open or create your daily note
