Major Content Editing Update

Today we're rolling out a significant upgrade to PaneFlow's content editing experience. This update is all about speed, clarity, and giving you more control over your workflow. Here's what's new:

#New Floating Toolbar

We've replaced the cluttered right-side style panel with a sleek floating toolbar. Now, whenever you select an element (text, image, etc.), a contextual toolbar appears right above it, giving you instant access to all essential styling options - like font, alignment, color, background, and more.

This toolbar eliminates the need to constantly toggle back and forth to the sidebar, streamlining your design process dramatically.

While the sidebar still exists for deeper settings and layout controls, it's no longer in your way. You can now toggle it on or off, giving you a more focused editing space when you're deep in the creative zone.

#Inline Text Editing

Text editing is now fully inline. Just double-click on any text element, and you can start typing right there - no modal, no side panel, no distractions. What you see is literally what you get.

#New Visual Effects: Blur & Shadows

We've added a new effects panel for advanced visual styling. You can now apply:

  • Background Blur - great for making overlaid text pop when placed on background images or videos.

  • Shadow - standard outer shadows for depth.

  • Inner Shadow - subtle inner shadows for softer UI design.

These can be fully customized for direction, blur amount, spread, and intensity - giving you precise control over the visual polish of your content.

#New Keyboard Shortcuts

Efficiency matters, and keyboard shortcuts now make adding elements lightning fast:

  • Press T to add a new Text element to the currently selected Block.
  • Press I to add an Image element instantly.

These shortcuts work when a block is selected, and they're designed to speed up slide creation without ever touching your mouse.


This release marks a big step toward a more intuitive, fluid, and modern content editing experience. We're excited to see how you use these improvements to create even more impactful slides.
