A big release for the design editor, plus ready-made templates, brand controls, and major improvements to how your screens are set up and run.
Design editor
Create faster
- Shapes — add rectangles, rounded rectangles, and circles from a new shape gallery (or press S).
- One-click layer toolbar — Text, Shape, Image, and Video are now a single click away, with helpful tooltips across the toolbar.
- Tables made easy — a new table picker builds data-connected tables from your product lists and feeds, not just plain grids.
Arrange precisely
- Align any selection — left, centre, right, top, middle, bottom.
- Distribute three or more layers to space them out evenly.
- Smart guides & snapping — layers snap to each other and to a grid as you drag, with on-canvas guide lines. On by default; toggle any time.
- Select with a box — drag across the canvas to select multiple layers at once.
- Pin to neighbour — link a layer so it pushes the next one along as it grows.
Work more comfortably
- Right-click menus on the canvas and in the layer list for quick actions (duplicate, reorder, hide, delete, paste, select all, and more).
- Recent & preset colours in every colour picker.
- Drag to adjust any size or position field — just click and drag the number.
- Auto-size text — choose auto-width, auto-height, or a fixed text box.
- Undo button — a quick "Undo" appears after big changes, alongside Ctrl+Z.
- Keyboard shortcut guide — press ? any time to see every shortcut.
- Rebuilt animation timeline — smoother, faster keyframe editing.
- Guided tour for new designs, so you know where to start.
Templates & branding
- Template gallery — start from professionally built, industry-specific templates and make them yours in a couple of clicks, with a full-screen preview before you commit.
- Brand kit — store your logos, colours, and fonts so every design stays on-brand.
- Themes — organise your designs into named theme collections.
Sharing & support
- Share a preview link — generate a secure, time-limited link so anyone can preview a design without logging in.
- In-app help & feedback — a new Support button opens help, feature requests, and product updates, and signs you in automatically.
Displays & player
- Scan-to-pair — new displays now show a QR code; scan it with your phone to pair without typing a code.
- Clear connection messages — if a screen loses internet or can't reach the server, it now shows a friendly status screen and reconnects automatically.
- Redesigned on-screen settings — a cleaner, sectioned settings menu (Status, Display, System, About) that's fully operable with a TV remote.
- A fresh player look with a subtle animated background.
- Run a screen in any browser — a new browser-based player plays your content, keeps working offline after it's loaded, and now supports embedded web pages too.
- Firmware dashboard (for partners) — track firmware rollout across your device fleet and manage releases.
Tips to get the most out of the new editor
- Press S to drop in a shape, and ? at any time to see the full list of keyboard shortcuts.
- Drag a box across empty canvas to grab several layers at once, then use Align and Distribute to tidy them up.
- Snapping and guides are on by default — just drag a layer and it lines up to its neighbours and the grid automatically. Toggle it from the toolbar if you want free placement.
- Don't retype numbers — click and drag directly on any size or position value to nudge it.
- Right-click the canvas or a layer for the quickest path to duplicate, reorder, hide, or delete.
- Save your logo, colours, and fonts once in the Brand kit and they're one click away in every design.
- Starting something new? Pick a template from the gallery instead of a blank canvas, then swap in your own data and branding.
Fixes
- More reliable video playback, with smoother starts and fewer needless retries.
