6.3.0 Beta | Compilation of Notes

Beta
#1

Did quite a bit of heavy building with the latest beta (amazing btw!) and noticed a few minor items during what I would consider my regular workflow that I thought I’d summarize below.

1. HTML editor opening on headlines by default feels a bit out of place. Still love having the option though.

2. In that same vein, it might be nice to have a preference for the default editor for both Text and Headline elements in the user preferences.

3. Color selectors default to a 0% opacity causing it to look like the color picker isn’t working unless you also drag the opacity slider back up.

4. When adding custom CSS or JS to a page via the Code Editor the Global Container on the page is immediately ignored in the builder preview (not on the frontend) until it is refreshed. This is on the Starter Stack in particular but not sure if it is happening on others.

5. Noticed that Min / Max values are not respected in the new random dynamic content.

6. Color-picker allows for multiples to be open at the same time. Maybe. this is a feature but it causes overlap on some elements with color selectors close in proximity.

Thanks!

1-2, Yeah I think we can get something together for a preference on that. I will probably take a look next week.

  1. If this is beta3 there was a bug that had this happen when you pressed transparent, that shouldn’t be in beta4. If you are referring to in general like if you turn on the border and the color is instantly transparent. Yeah I wish it had a default color, it defaults it as transparent so it’s not stored in the DB and thus bringing down element data size. Utilizing theme options for element defaults is something I wish happened more.

  2. I will definitely take a look at that on the starter. They run a little differently so it’s probably isolated to blank and starter.

  3. I think I see the issue here. float is being converted to an integer so the decimals won’t work there. I am also going to alias float to number as well. Let me know if you had issues with the integer one too.

  4. I could not get this to happen on a couple of browsers. This is the icon element right? Does this happen every time?

Have a great day!
