This week, we have just released a series of new updates - many of which were feature / design suggestions from you 💜
1. Card Rotation
Rotate images, colors and texts
2. Multi-card resizing
All card types would resize proportionally. For text, the font size changes as you do multi-resize.
3. Copy from any website, paste to upload
You can copy either text or image from any website, paste in Make the Dot to create a card
4. Copy and paste across boards
Copy 1 or many cards from one board to another - across all card types with the layout retained
5. Keyboard Shortcuts ⌨️
On top of the existing copy/paste/duplicate and undo/redo shortcuts, we’ve added the followings:
Turn Text tool on/off
Turn Eyedropper on/off
Zoom to fitUp / down key to move card
Select all
Bring to front
Bring Forward
Send to Back
Send Backward
Hold shift to proportionally resize color cards
Holding Command/Ctrl to open board or main menu in new page
Full list of keyboard shortcuts can be found here.
6. Improvements 🎁
UX update: duplicated cards now appear slightly to the bottom right of the original cards, so you can tell that it’s been copied
UX update: when you activate Move, you can pan the canvas without accidentally dragging any of the images
UX update: we would automatically calculate the width of the selection frame for text. Text editor also comes with a predefined line break, so when you’re copying a large text, it’ll be easier to read the pasted text
Fix: copy Pantone code to color name
Fix: browser extension display issue on external websites
New loading animations
7. Changes to the Pro✨ Plan
We’ve added a higher quality export level for Pro plan users and now exports from the free plan accounts will contain a watermark
The image download feature is now a Pro Plan feature
For new users, the card limit will be 60 cards. There are no changes to existing users' card limits.
Note: While GIF files are supported, we will no longer support webp fomat files.
