Hey, again developers, creators, and the curious! In a short but meaningful sprint, we come bearing gifts! TL;DR
A few releases back, we released Rich Text fields. In this release, content editors are getting some serious upgrades!
Previously videos were not supported assets in the Rich text field and showed up as broken images. This has been remedied!
What was previously only accessible through transformation URLs and the API, there is now a UI for content creators to:
Some feedback we've gotten from early testers is that they would appreciate common aspect ratios as well. Is this something that would speed up your workflow? Let us know in the slack channel!
The Rich Text field UI now supports indenting list items (nesting) using Tab!
The most exciting part about this field release though is that it is paving the way for custom fields later. Keep on the lookout for more updates to come on this topic.
We've all had that moment of walking into a room and forgetting why we're there, and many of us can relate on a digital level with tabs as well. Well, no longer! You can now navigate to the schema of a content model from the content sidebar!
Among these new features and updates, we also got 14 bugs squashed. Score! Our next release has some fun things for developers including something to do with... location!
Until next time - The Hygraph Team
