Design Faster in a Modern, Distraction-Free UI
The CE.SDK editor has a new look: simpler, brighter, and more focused. This visual refresh reduces complexity, improves readability, and helps your users design faster while keeping your product future-proof.
Friendlier and Easier-to-Use Interface:
- The editor now features a flatter UI appearance with size-consistent elements, including buttons and dropdowns, making it feel more intuitive and less "boxed-in."
- Increased font weight improves legibility.
- More rounded interfaces contribute to a friendlier and more inviting feel, especially for users who are not professional designers.
- A refined color palette provides better contrast.
Panels now visually step back, so designs take the spotlight. The result is an interface that feels balanced, and easy to use.
The new theming system is built for flexibility. It supports more straightforward customization and evolving brand identities, keeping your editor modern and consistent without constant redesigns.
Export Audio for Captions, Editing, and Automation
The new exportAudio API supports extracting audio from scenes, audio blocks, or video fill blocks.
This gives developers full control over audio output for editing, mixing, or automation workflows. For example, you can extract audio for automatic transcription and auto video captions.
Coming Soon: Learn how to generate and translate captions automatically in your editor — our full guide is on the way.
Improvements
Smarter Video Timeline Controls
Editing clips is now smoother and more intuitive: Users can drag to select multiple clips, click the background to deselect, and scroll with the middle mouse button for precise navigation.
These enhancements make working on complex timelines faster and more fluid.
