Design Editor IFrame API Changelog

This topic includes new features, improvements, and bug fixes for IFrame API 7.

7.2.2 - April 9, 2026​

New Features​

7.2.0 - March 23, 2026​

New Violation Check: Artwork Size Limit​

Added a new violation check to ensure that the bounding box of all objects in a container does not exceed the configured size limits, accounting for the container's shape (rectangle or ellipse).

  • Enable the warnings via the new maxArtworkSizeWarning setting in the clientConfig.json.
  • Shape-aware validation: For rectangular containers, the bounding box is checked directly against limits. For elliptical containers, the system calculates the minimum-area ellipse enclosing the bounding box and validates against constraints.

7.1.72 - February 5, 2026​

Optimized Image Rendering​

Introduced new configurable parameters in imageResizeRequestConfig to optimize backend interactions when rendering scalable images:

  • Smart preview requests: New previews are fetched only after significant zoom changes, reducing redundant server calls.
  • Dynamic thresholds: zoom levels balance quality and efficiency—minor adjustments reuse the current image.

This reduces system load and improves responsiveness while maintaining visual quality.

7.1.71 - January 27, 2026​

Placeholder Improvements​

Two new parameters have been added to the canvas.handlers object to improve placeholder behavior:

  • placeholderCropMode: Enables Adobe Express-like cropping for placeholders, allowing users to intuitively scale and crop content using grip handles. Default: true.
  • placeholderFitMode: Controls the fit position behavior when resizing placeholders.
    • "Always" (default): Preserves the fit position regardless of resizing (new behavior in 7.1.55).
    • "Insert": Reverts to the legacy behavior (pre-7.1.55), where the fit position may change when resizing.

Behavior Changes​

Placeholder Resizing: Starting from 7.1.55, the default behavior ("Always") ensures that the fit position is preserved when resizing placeholders. To restore the pre-7.1.55 behavior, set placeholderFitMode to "Insert".

7.1.39 - March 8, 2025​

Bug Fixes​

  • Fixed a problem with defining the name property for a surface created through state ID.

7.1.33 - December 3, 2024​

General Improvements​

  • Changed logic of toggling the snap lines. The defaultValue of snap line checkboxes now defines their initial appearance. Removed the initialValue property from ISnapElementConfiguration.
  • You can now skip adding themes to history when using the applyProductTheme() method. To prevent the user from reverting to a previous theme with the Undo button, pass { addToHistory: false } as the second parameter.

7.1.30 - November 5, 2024​

General Improvements​

7.1.27 - September 3, 2024​

New Features​

  • Added the possibility to control the visibility of design elements through product themes. You can now use the visible property for design elements when defining styles and pass them as the editor configuration parameters or to change the styles at runtime.

7.1.24 - August 9, 2024​

7.1.14 – April 22, 2024​

General Improvements​

7.1.10 – March 6, 2024​

General Improvements​

7.1.8 – January 26, 2024​

General Improvements​

  • Added the possibility to disable the context menu in the Image Editor. To do so, set the widgets.ImageEditorDialog.imageContextMenuEnabled property to false.
  • Added the options parameter to loadUserInfo to define how this info should be reflected in the history. If options.addSnapshot is true, these changes will be added to the history. If options.replaceLastSnapshot is true, these changes will replace the last history snapshot.

7.1.3 – November 22, 2023​

General Improvements​

  • Added the possibility to display the path of curved text by using the curvedTextBaselineDrawStates parameter. Now, the path appears when the user interacts with a specific text element.
  • Added checking the message source and ignoring messages from outside the Design Editor.

7.0.1 – July 31, 2023​

Bug Fixes​

  • Fixed some problems with using the updateSurfaces command.
