All settings live under Settings → Community plugins → Chronicle of Whispers - Shadow Atlas.

Setting Description
Language Auto (follows your Obsidian display language), English (US) or Deutsch (AT). Applies to plugin text and the table view.
Map viewer style Derive from Obsidian style adopts the colours and font of your active Obsidian theme; Default uses the engine’s fixed dark look.
Setting Description
Port mode Fixed (a single port) or Range (first free port from a range).
Port (with Fixed) Fixed TCP port, 1024–65535. If it is taken, sharing stays disabled.
Port range start / end (with Range) Range the first free port is picked from. Default: 8000–8099. The end must be ≥ the start.
Allow access from other devices (LAN) Default on: the server binds to 0.0.0.0, so devices on the same network can connect. Off: 127.0.0.1 only (this machine).
Apply changes → Restart server Changes to the port/LAN settings only take effect after restarting the local server.
Setting Description
Default live view Starting state of Live View for newly created maps. Default: on.
Map history length Number of entries in the Share Dock’s map history. Default 5, max. 100.
Overlay history length Number of entries in the Share Dock’s overlay history. Default 5, max. 100.
Inline reading-mode share button Shows a small share button when hovering reading-mode content. Default: on.

Defines which object layers every new map is created with (default: a single Tokens layer), plus the position of the always-present Fog layer within that stack (0 = frontmost). Order and visibility can be adjusted with the arrow buttons; the fog layer itself cannot be deleted and is always visible to the table view.

Manages the pin icons available in the object property panel:

  • 15 built-in shapes (teardrop, circle, square, diamond, star, chest, exclamation, NPC, cross, xmark, dot, X, triangle, heart, hexagon).
  • Your own uploads via drag & drop: SVG, PNG, JPEG, WebP or GIF, 512 KB maximum. Tintable SVGs (containing a {{COLOR}} placeholder) can take a pin colour just like the built-in shapes.
  • Reorder by dragging or with the arrow buttons; Restore default pins resets the list to the 15 default shapes (your uploads stay on disk but disappear from the list).
Setting Description
Apply changes Restarts the local server so port/LAN changes take effect.
Current address Shows the address clients currently connect to (only visible while the server runs).
