# [[Compatibility Issues - Plugins to Watch Out For]] Here's a list of plugins and themes that have caused performance issues or other problems when used in conjunction with Excalidraw: - [Typing Transformer](https://github.com/aptend/typing-transformer-obsidian): text in embedded markdown files is blurred. [#1990](https://github.com/zsviczian/obsidian-excalidraw-plugin/issues/1990) - [Columns](https://github.com/tnichols217/obsidian-columns): Excalidraw drawings do not render in markdown. [#1896](https://github.com/zsviczian/obsidian-excalidraw-plugin/issues/1896) - [Templater](https://github.com/SilentVoid13/Templater) - Templater scripts only work on markdown files not on Excalidraw files [#1512](https://github.com/zsviczian/obsidian-excalidraw-plugin/issues/1512) - But Templater scripts do work inside markdown embeddables inside Excalidraw - You can create ExcalidrawAutomate scripts for automating Excalidraw operations - Syntax highlighting results in very slow markdown file editing for back-of-the-drawing markdown notes on the back of large canvases. Turning off Templater Syntax Highlighting in plugin settings improves performance - [Make.md](https://github.com/Make-md/makemd): Excalidraw + Make.md plugin breaks Obsidian Quick Switcher function to create and switch to files clicked on quick switcher view [#1498](https://github.com/zsviczian/obsidian-excalidraw-plugin/issues/1498) - [Obsidian Link Opener](https://github.com/zorazrr/obsidian-link-opener): More tools dropdown does not work in Excalidraw [#1402](https://github.com/zsviczian/obsidian-excalidraw-plugin/issues/1402) - [Metadata Menu](https://github.com/mdelobelle/metadatamenu): Performance impact across Obsidian if Metadata Menu and Excalidraw are both enabled. There is more information on this issue [here](https://github.com/mdelobelle/metadatamenu/issues/660) [#1744](https://github.com/zsviczian/obsidian-excalidraw-plugin/issues/1744) - [Minimal Theme](https://github.com/kepano/obsidian-minimal) - Text in Excalidraw menus not readable, buttons are black. You can turn on Dynamic Styling in Excalidraw plugin settings under Appearance and Behavior > Theme and Styling which will override Minimal Theme's styling for Excalidraw. - Performance impact, when Excalidraw and Minimal Theme are both installed Obsidian becomes laggier. - Size parameter of embedded Excalidraw drawing doesn't work with Minimal Theme Settings enabled [#2000](https://github.com/zsviczian/obsidian-excalidraw-plugin/issues/2000) - I've had reports of hover preview not displaying Excalidraw drawings. - [Header Enhance](https://github.com/HoBeedzc/obsidian-header-enhancer-plugin): when Auto numbering enabled toggle between Excalidraw and Markdown view mode does not function. [More info](https://forum.obsidian.md/t/excalidraw-full-featured-sketching-plugin-in-obsidian/17367/114) - [Encore Theme](https://github.com/Carbonateb/obsidian-encore-theme/issues): The Excalidraw tools panel is not visible. - [Style Settings plugin](https://github.com/mgmeyers/obsidian-style-settings/issues/115#issuecomment-2416514409). Navigation in Obsidian settings is sluggish. [More info](https://github.com/zsviczian/obsidian-excalidraw-plugin/issues/1826) - [OmniSearch](https://github.com/scambier/obsidian-omnisearch) Significant performance degradation. [More info](https://github.com/zsviczian/obsidian-excalidraw-plugin/issues/2055#issuecomment-2401376219) - [Math+](https://github.com/ocapraro/obsidian-math-plus) Some users have reported that after installing the plugin the Excalidraw toolbar disappeared. - [Linter](https://github.com/platers/obsidian-linter) changes files in the background which can lead to corrupt Excalidraw files. For example the `lint on focus file change` option was reported as such a problematic setting.
