Release: New Sign Up Flow and Canvas Keeps Getting Better
⌚ TL;DR
- New Sign Up Flow!!! (part 1)
- Canvas Features Improvements - Delete canvases, Improved sharing, and Copy/Paste images
- Pretty link preview in LinkedIn, Twitter and the rest of it!
🚀 We have a new sign up flow
Users are prompted to invite their team members as soon as they create their account 💅
If you are collaborating with teammates, we've released a way to make sure those teammates are added to the same account during sign up, rather than needing to merge accounts later on. The sign up flow remains clean and simple, but with two big changes:
1. Error warning for duplicate account names
Now when a new person is signing up and adds a business name that already exists in our system, the user will be prompted to contact their team member to invite them to join their team.
2. Ability to invite your team within the account creation flow, to easily jumpstart collaboration
🤗 Share canvases
We've made several improvements to the “Share” modal based on feedback and bugs we were catching.
Access and ownership is now more clear!
- Personal access is reiterated (Viewer, Editor) so you know what kind of access you have while in the canvas
- Creator of the canvas is noted
It is now easier to share and control access to canvases!
- Invite individual users from your account and set their permissions
- Share a canvas with your entire account
- Control visibility for public preview links
Every public canvas link will have a persistent reminder, which the user cannot dismiss, alerting the user that they are in a public canvas and their changes will not be saved. This enables all users to play in the canvas without messing up your work!
🧹 Delete canvases
Clean up your dashboard!
You can now delete any of the canvases you created, or you can remove yourself from ones that have been shared with that you don’t need anymore.
🖼️ Copy / Paste images from browser
You can now copy/paste images from outside the canvas onto your design, including using shortcuts like +C and +V
We've made it easier than ever to bring images from the web or other places in your computer onto your canvas. Now you don't need to only use the picture icon - you can copy an inspiration image from anywhere and paste it right into canvas.
👹 Generic Products Removed
Placeholder generic products have now been removed from the standard product catalog.
- These placeholders were helpful to drop in a placeholder item or drawing, but now that it is easier than ever to bring in your own product data and images, they are no longer necessary
- The Generic Collection has been removed from appearing in the canvas or in Catalogs, without disrupting places where users may have leveraged those products in the past.
