TECH – eDesign New Features/Enhancements

The eDesign team is pleased to announce the release of several new improvements to the eDesign experience!

Practice Pages: now there is a button at the top of the ladder that takes you to a spread where you can practice design without impacting the book pages. If you decide to keep the design, save it as a template and use it anywhere in the actual book pages.

New Keywords Panel: the Library now has a dedicated keywords panel, so you can see all keywords and the number of photos they are assigned to. The list can also be filtered and is searchable by clicking.

Page Design: now the default proxy point is the center point! That means rotation will occur around the center by default. If you preferred the old upper-left rotation, it can be changed back at any time by clicking the upper left point (or any other corner as well).

Character Styles can now be created by advisers in the Page Design view, as well as in the Index Builder.
