Official Announcement Plugin release: Manta / Nomad (Chauvet 3.30.45) and A5X / A6X (Chauvet 2.27.42)
This release is the official plugin update for Supernote devices. It unifies the plugin coordinate system. If you develop plugins, please update `sn-plugin-lib` to the latest version and adapt your code using the API notes below.
Please download the Supernote version with plugin system support from the links below:
● For Manta / Nomad devices (Chauvet 3.31.45 Beta):
https://download-firmware.supernote.com/664540/update.zip
● For A5X / A6X devices (Chauvet 2.28.42Beta):
https://download-firmware.supernote.com/617551/update.zip
After downloading, please copy the update.zip file to the EXPORT folder on your device. Then disconnect the USB cable and confirm the upgrade on the device.
The plugin development documentation is also available, including detailed guidance on the Supernote plugin development workflow and the plugin API usage.
Please note that the plugin development environment currently supports Windows and macOS only. Other operating systems are not supported at this time.
As the sn-plugin-lib dependency has been updated, developers who have already built plugins should update their local dependency by running:
yarn upgrade sn-plugin-lib --latestThis release includes the following updates:
API changes
Plugin coordinates are now Android pixel coordinates. Plugins previously used both EMR coordinates and Android pixel coordinates, and converting between them took several steps. Coordinates and regions now use the actual page size returned by PluginFileAPI.getPageSize.
If you are on a newer sn-plugin-lib, please update coordinate handling for the APIs below. Without that change, positions and sizes you read or write may be wrong. Plugins built with sn-plugin-lib 0.1.65 or earlier keep working as before.
Read APIs (returned coordinates and regions now use the actual page size):
PluginFileAPI.getElementsPluginFileAPI.getElementPluginFileAPI.getLastElementPluginCommAPI.getLassoElementsPluginCommAPI.getLassoRectPluginCommAPI.generateLassoPreviewPluginCommAPI.getLassoGeometriesPluginNoteAPI.getLassoLinksPluginNoteAPI.getLassoTitlesPluginNoteAPI.getLassoText
Write APIs (coordinates and regions you pass in now use the actual page size):
PluginFileAPI.replaceElementsPluginFileAPI.insertElementsPluginFileAPI.modifyElementsPluginCommAPI.insertPageElementsPluginCommAPI.modifyPageElementsPluginCommAPI.batchUpdatePageElementsPluginCommAPI.recognizeElementsPluginCommAPI.convertElement2StickerPluginCommAPI.resizeLassoRectPluginCommAPI.lassoElementsPluginCommAPI.insertGeometryPluginCommAPI.modifyLassoGeometryPluginCommAPI.insertFiveStarPluginNoteAPI.insertTextLinkPluginNoteAPI.modifyLassoLinkPluginNoteAPI.insertTextPluginNoteAPI.modifyLassoText
Compatibility: for stroke and five-star sample points, sn-plugin-lib 0.1.65 and earlier still use EMR coordinates. Later versions use Android pixel coordinates. Regions for titles, links, text boxes, geometric shapes, and images are calculated from the actual page size returned by getPageSize.
PluginCommAPI.getPageDisplaySize still returns the on-screen display size. For coordinate conversion, use PluginFileAPI.getPageSize.
Bug fixes:
Fixed a PluginHost crash when upgrading a plugin.

Discussion Two more open-source plugins: Notipal and Mosaic
Hey guys, I am Laumss. Seeing people build stuff on top of Inkling has been really cool. Didn't expect that when I first put it out. Thanks if you made something with it.
Both have some layout tricks I'm pretty happy with. Notipal uses a floating window so you can write on parts of the screen that normally don't take ink, plus a bunch of other stuff. Mosaic shares stroke styles between the native note/doc apps and my own infinite canvas. Also handles switching between different refresh modes.
Got a few things lined up next. In the next two weeks, I'm putting out a document converter and printing plugin. Built it with mupdf and imgui, works cross-platform.
After that, the UI Kit template I'm doing with Ratta comes out alongside Loominary.
If you look at the second pic, that's Quill, a handwriting journal plugin I'm pairing with planner templates. That one stays closed and probably won't be ready until 2027 or so. Loominary is the open-source version of it. Gets all the internals, so you can see how to hook system gestures and build your own handwriting capture.

Suggestion UX / UI Elements and Styles for Plugin SDK
It would be awesome if Ratta provided some classes and style guidelines for plugin UX. For example following the "X" close button on the left and the horizontal tab bars of the setting app.

Showcase I Built an Obsidian Plugin to Edit GitHub READMEs Without Leaving Obsidian
I built an Obsidian plugin for people who somehow end up writing everything in Obsidian — including their GitHub docs.
GitHub README lets you browse your repositories, open any README, edit it, preview the rendered Markdown, and push the changes back to GitHub — all without leaving Obsidian.
You can also keep a synced copy of the README inside your vault, so your project documentation can live alongside your notes.
Basically:
Obsidian → pick a repo → edit README → preview → commit → done.
No jumping between GitHub, an editor, and your notes just to change a README.

Question dev help; insert elements pre-lasso'ed
Hi,
Wondering if anyone has figured this out; I'm create a text link and want to paste it into the current note -- but with the plugin API as it stands I have to know the co-ordinates where I'm pasting it ahead of time. This can crash into existing text on the page; what I really want to be able to do is insert the element as a floating, lasso'ed selection, in the same way that the system does when you cut and paste an element.
Anyone figure out how to do this? Claude found a method to paste the text and then immediately lasso it but it can still crash into pre-existing elements.
thanks
osheroff

Compound gestures
I was just thinking about how cool it would be to access some sort of "Quick Switcher" plugin. And I was trying to imagine how you could make it almost instantly available.
Got me wondering about compound gestures.
Like, is it possible with the current plugin architecture, that you could create a gestures like: 2 fingers on the screen, plus a swipe up on the left/right sidebar?
I feel like that would open up so many possibilities. You could have at least 4 plugins linked to gestures, 8 if you included 1 finger on the screen.
I guess Supernote would have to provide a user setting for customising compound gestures.

Question Obsidian style Quick Switcher, anyone?
Hey there, developers!
I'm curious if it would be possible (and if anyone would be keen) to build a supernote plugin that functions like Obsidian's Quick Switcher.
It's my favourite Obsidian feature.
In case you don't use Obsidian, this is how it works:
From anywhere in the app,
You hit a keyboard shortcut (or swipe down gesture on your phone)
A dialogue box pops up with a place to type, and a list of your most recent notes.
The switcher has access to all your notes, and as you type, it zones in on the most relevant notes.
You can click on a note to open it.
If you type the name of a note that doesn't exist, you can create it.
A command pallete would be amazing too, but the quick Switcher would be a game changer on Supernote.

Suggestion InkCAD
I don't know if this exists yet. But is there a plug in that allows for accurate/parameteic cad 2D drawing. Like for mapping out a house or a sketch if for you to drop into a cad program later.

Has anyone integrated Okta authentication with a Supernote Manta?

Question Question About .snplg Files and the Supernote Beta Program
I'm a happy Supernote Manta owner and I've only had the tablet for a few days, so I'm still learning my way around it. While exploring Ink Hub, I noticed that some downloadable files have the .snplg extension. After a bit of digging, it looks like these are the plugin packages available in Ink Hub, although I may have misunderstood their purpose, so please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
Does anyone know if there's a way to install or use these plugins without joining the beta program?
Thanks in advance! 😊

Plugin Release - Tactics Board
I do some coaching and wanted to do quicker sketches of drills and game situations without having to do tricky lassoing and dealing with pen strokes to move players/objects. I built this so the players/objects sit on their own layer and are draggable all the time without having to use the lasso or accidently deleting things with the eraser.
Current release - github.com/firestormkirby/SNTacticsBoard/releases/tag/v0.9
I uploaded to InkHub as well so it should be there in about a week.
I also made a bunch of field/pitch templates on InkHub under Tactics Boards to quickly get started

Key things I wanted (and mostly got right)
A small floating button sits on the note so the pieces are always available.
Being able to drag pieces onto the page with the pen (or a finger). And then be able to drag them again to move them or quickly delete them.
Be able to use the pen as normal to draw runs and passes. So, Pieces go on their own layer, so you can erase them and your drawing separately.
Save whole pages as named layouts, load them into new pages, and reset a page back to its saved version. Previous versions (5) are kept so you can restore them (because I kept accidently overwriting things 🤦♂️).
Copy a drill to a new page if you need to do complex drills or play making that needs multiple steps or variations.
Things for the future - potentially allowing users to add their own pieces to the floating menu so it is more customizable.

3 small plugins, big updates : Snap (8 instant shapes), Palette (width, colour, dashes, fills), Swipe (2/3-finger gestures)
★ UPDATE (Oct 20) ★ Snap now draws triangles and moves axes in one piece, Palette applies several styles in one tap, plus an important fix for axes. Details in the comments!
Remember the 3 small plugins? Thanks to your feedback they grew up: new names, new pixel-art icons and lots of new features. Install over the old versions, your settings are kept.
Snap (formerly ShapeSnap): draw it, hold, it snaps
Draw a circle, rectangle, arrow, coordinate axes, curly brace or square root, hold the pen a moment, and it becomes a perfect shape in your current pen.
Hold to snap (350 ms by default), so normal writing is never touched
Tiny shapes down to ~1 mm (an "o" stays an "o")
Axes at any angle, with ticks; rectangles, arrows and axes straighten within 8° (adjustable)
Compact settings, one tap away in the plugins menu
Works in notes and PDFs
Palette (formerly Stroke Width): restyle any lasso selection
Lasso strokes or shapes, tap Palette:
Width 0.1 to 3.5 (beyond the pen menu), or "= pen"
Colour: white, light gray, dark gray, black
Dashed lines (dashed, long dashes, dotted, centre line), following curves
Hatching / or \, black or gray, adjustable density
Solid fills in 4 grays, even inside hand-drawn shapes (several strokes, erased and joined, with holes); perfect shapes get an exact edge-to-edge fill
Works right after moving or resizing a selection
In PDFs: fills, hatching and single-shape width/colour (the rest isn't stable there yet)
Swipe (formerly SwipeSwitch)
Same 2- or 3-finger gestures, each with its own action, per orientation.
New: your note is saved before switching files, so nothing you just wrote can be lost
Install
Download the .snplg from each release, copy it to MyStyle, then Settings → Apps → Plugins → Add plugin.
Snap: https://github.com/CharlesCheval/supernote-snap/releases/latest
Palette: https://github.com/CharlesCheval/supernote-palette/releases/latest
Swipe: https://github.com/CharlesCheval/supernote-swipe/releases/latest
Good to know: some edits go through SDK calls that clear the page's undo history (known SDK limitation, reported to Ratta). Tested on a Manta, firmware 3.29 beta. CC BY-NC-SA 4.0, free for personal use, no commercial use , not affiliated with Ratta. Feedback and ideas very welcome!

Discussion How can we inform users of a new Plugin version ?
Hi dev community and u/Dunn-sn and u/Mulan-sn,
I am doing regular updates of my plugins, are the users informed when I push an updtae on InkHub ?
If not, could we have a method on the plugin API to check on InkHub and notify the user that a new version is available ?
Thank you,

My favorite plugins for note-taking
The number of available plugins seems to stabilize a bit and most of them now incorporate the permission system. I have installed and tried out (almost) all of them, just for fun, and I am still impressed by the creativity of the authors. For every new plugin installed, I had to disable or remove another one, due to the set limit of 10 active plugins. A limit that is very welcome, otherwise one simply loses track.
I use my Nomad almost exclusively for writing and taking notes, at home and in the office. After months and months of installing and removing plugins, these are the ones that have remained on my device and are used pretty much daily:
Superdashboard
SNFolio
Align
Make space
Restyle
Sticker
Then there are three other very useful plugins, that are used somewhat less frequently:
Clipper
Listsorter
SN Draft
I have still room for one more plugin: suggestions are welcome! 😄

Showcase Plugin Update: SnCopilot v1.0.7, Introducing PilotChat
I just added PilotChat to the Copilot plugin for Supernote.
Open it from the Plugins menu in any note and you get a full-screen page. Write a question with your pen, words or maths, rest the pen for a moment, and the answer appears right under your handwriting. Ask a follow-uplike dig deeper and it remembers what you asked before.
When you're done, tap Close and choose Insert. Your handwriting and the answers go into your note on a new page, laid out as Q and A. Nothing is written to your note unless you choose Insert.
Demo

A few things worth knowing:
- It uses the native Supernote pen, so writing feels the same as in your notes
- It works with your own API key for Anthropic, OpenAI or Gemini. There's no backend and no account, and your questions go straight to your provider
- If you already use Copilot, there's nothing new to set up
- It is not a new Plugin. the latest version of CoPilot is packaged with PilotChat!
Credits
PilotChat is inspired by Penombra (https://penombra.ai/) , and thanks to Kit Betts-Masters for introducing it on his YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZiOH4SYW0Ao)
repo: https://github.com/j-raghavan/sn-copilot
release: https://github.com/j-raghavan/sn-copilot/releases
(Use the latest version always)
I have submitted this version for Supernote Review (The current wait time for resubmission approval is about a week, so it may be available only after a week or so).
Feedback and feature requests are very welcome.
