The view mode and zen mode should be turned on by default on all drawings until we click inside the drawing area to draw. After clicking inside the drawing area, the zen mode and view mode should be turned off to show the tools and the UI elements and let us draw.
After clicking outside of the drawing area the zen mode and view mode should be turned on again to hide the tools.
Maybe this behavior could be configured in the settings if it’s desired.
Reason
The tools are distracting if we only want to view the drawings or scroll on a page that has drawings/illustrations.
Example screenshots
Drawing is inactive, view mode & zen mode are turned on. It’s cleaner, we can focus on the drawing, there are no distracting tools.
Would it also be possible to allow the user to resize the excalidraw drawing area in the same way that we can resize images. Some of my drawings don’t fit inside the space available and zooming to make them fit can make some of them unreadable.
For cross-compatibility with Obsidian, it would also be nice if it supported the same notation for embedding the drawing i.e. with a ! in front of the [[. This does work if you add the ! manually because LogSeq simply displays the ! above the drawing but it would nice to have an option to add it automatically and then not dispay it.
I absolutely agree, view mode and zen mode should always be on by default, when a page is opened. Only when you click on it or go to edit mode manually in some way, that’s when you should be able to edit it.
Additionally, the scrolling behavior is very nerve wrecking. When I scroll scroll through a page and a drawing comes into view, it stops scrolling that page and instead scrolls/drags the drawing.
Additionally, Logseq/Excalidraw should either remember the zooming and positioning of the drawing after reoping Logseq or that page or Logseq/Excalidraw should always zoom the drawings so that they perfectly fit into the currently availabe viewport.
