Support for mermaid diagram configurations

[michaelseelion]

Use case or problem

The current mermaid diagram support is very limited. The rendered diagram ignores custom configurations, like the renderer used. I have complex flow diagrams that look very messy in obsidian because the connections are rendered as curved lines. This can be fixed simply by changing the renderer to elk, but obsidian doesn’t support this.

Proposed solution

Include a more full-fledged mermaid diagram app within obsidian, allowing configurations to be passed and interpreted.

Current workaround (optional)

Currently I just use obsidian to keep the code, but copy and paste it to the mermaid live editor to look at it. It’s a workaround but tedious.

Same feature request

Mermaid: Support Elk layout system in core Obsidian

Hello, first of all, I’d like to apologize for any mistakes in my writing, as English is not my native language. I’d like to request something that I believe is a common wish among a large part of the community that uses Mermaid diagrams: the ability to use theme and layout configurations, such as Elk. This would be essential to make this native feature even more powerful and to ensure that the visualization in the online editor matches the visualization in Obsidian. [image]
