  • 2.2.5

  • 6.2.5

  • 3.2.5

Our focus for this cycle has been on some key improvements to the editing experience of our builders, of which we're proud to announce inline editing! Additionally, we've included drag and drop support to the Header and Footer Builders along with Skeleton Mode for quick and easy inspecting and layout updates.

Inline Editing Pro, Cornerstone

You'll notice that many of the elements will now have a green outline when you hover over them instead of the original blue outline. This change is to indicate you can double-click to begin inline editing:

Inline Editing

After double clicking a faint green outline will appear to show the boundary of what you are editing. Just start typing to edit your element! Depending on the element you are editing there are two possible toolbars. A compact toolbar will show when editing a single level element like a heading or button. The full toolbar will show when a div is the root of what you are editing:

Prior to this release there were many distinct differences between using the Content Builder and the Header and Footer Builders. We've been working to bridge the gap in as many areas as possible to make your editing experience more consistent. Headers and Footers will always use Bars and the Content Builder will always use Sections but we are making how you interact with those elements share a similar workflow. This starts with being able to drag and drop elements.

Behold, the Elements tab! You're familiar with it from the Content Builder—use it to find any Element you'd like to drag into your layout, or you can still click it as you're used to, which will add it to your currently focused container:

You'll also observe that empty Containers now show the outline styling to suggest where you can place elements:

Empty Containers

This can be immensely helpful to use this as a guide when adding new elements or moving existing ones. Additionally, it will assist you in better visualizing the layout of your header or footer bars as you're introducing new content.

When working with complex Headers or Footers where you may have elements hidden at different screen sizes it may help to see all that from an architectural perspective. Just like in the Content Builder you can click the Skeleton Mode icon in the Bar to have it slide in:

Header and Footer Builder Skeleton Mode

This interface is also helpful if you'd like to move a container to a new bar, which is a tremendous time-saver if you have a heavily populated region of your header that you wish to relocate.

Font Awesome 5 Integration

We've updated our Font Awesome integration to support 5.0.0+ of their icons, which includes a completely revamped style throughout the collection:

You can find the new icon selections in any of the icon selection controls throughout the builder.
