I cannot make it show on the left panel
In your example video it shows the side panel with the mermaid option, I cannot make it show once I install it
@utiq, it takes a few of steps to do this.
- Install the plugin
- You need to create a diagram using the + in the toolbar and select Advanced > Mermaid
- The default diagram is sufficient
- Select Image
- Select Insert
- Add the created diagram to the Scratchpad in the Left Side Menu
- Export the Scratchpad as a library:
- click the Pencil icon
- Select Export
- OS save dialog should open and you can rename the file from Scratchpad.xml to Mermaid.xml
- Open the library
- Select File > Open Library… and navigate to where you saved Mermaid.xml
- You can select a shape/image from the new library and it will be added to the page.
- Double click the image and update the text to make the new diagram what you want.
