With prefix argument, it also forced displaying image links with description. Now, =C-c C-x C-v= is bound to a new command ~org-toggle-inline-images-command~, which uses different defaults: 1. By default, it toggles image at point or, if there is no image at point, images in current entry 2. When region is active, it is honored 3. =C-u= argument changed its meaning. Now, it forces toggling images in the whole buffer 4. =C-u C-u= argument unconditionally hides all the images in buffer 5. Displaying images over links with description can be forced using numeric argument: - ~C-u 1~ for toggling all images at point/current entry - ~C-u 11~ for toggling all images in buffer The old ~org-toggle-inline-images~ command is still available. You can bind it back to =C-c C-x C-v= by adding the following to you config: #+begin_src emacs-lisp (eval-after-load 'org-keys (org-defkey org-mode-map (kbd "C-c C-x C-v") #'org-toggle-inline-images)) #+end_src *** Org mode may throw an error when attempting to include remote unsafe resource noninteractively Previously, when ~org-resource-download-policy~ is ~ask~ (default), and Emacs is running in batch mode, Org mode simply skipped unsafe remote resources in the =#+include:='s. Now, an error is thrown to avoid seemingly ignored =#+include= statements when publishing via batch scripts. ** New features # We list the most important features, and the features that may # require user action to be used. *** Alignment of image previews can be customized This is not a new feature. It has been added in Org 9.7, but not documented in the news. See [[#preview-align][restrospectively added news entry]]. *** Beamer export supports setting frame subtitles If a headline is exported as a frame, and has its =BEAMER_SUBTITLE= property set, the value is used as the subtitle. *** =ol.el=: New =shortdoc= link type You can now create links to =shortdoc= documentation groups for Emacs Lisp functions (see =M-x shortdoc-display-group=). Requires Emacs 28 or newer. ** New and changed options # Chanes deadling with changing default values of customizations, # adding new customizations, or changing the interpretation of the # existing customizations. *** Allow disabling macro replacement during export New custom option ~org-export-replace-macros~ controls whether Org mode replaces macros in the buffer before export. Set it to nil to disable macro replacement. This variable has no effect on the ={{{results...}}}= macros for inline code block results. *** Allow headline/olp target in ~org-capture-templates~ to be a function/variable The variable ~org-capture-templates~ accepts a target specification as function or symbol for headline (~file+headline~) and olp (~file+olp~ and ~file+olp+datetree~). *** New =%\*N= placeholder in ~org-capture-templates~ The new placeholder is like =%\N=, gives access not only to the =%^{prompt}= values, but also to =%^{prompt}X= values. *** The default value of ~org-babel-latex-process-alist~ is no longer taken from ~org-preview-latex-process-alist~ The default value used to be pulled from =dvipng= process type from ... ...
