- Engine/Android: Fixed StrictMode violations.
- Editor/iOS: Changed the default Apparel Editor navigation bar layout to place undo, redo, and preview mode buttons in the center (principal placement) instead of the trailing edge. This aligns with the Postcard Editor layout and fixes empty slots appearing in iOS 26's Liquid Glass navigation bar during preview mode.
- Editor/Android: Changed the default Apparel Editor navigation bar layout to place undo, redo, and preview mode buttons in the center instead of the end. This aligns with the Postcard Editor layout for cross-platform consistency.
- Engine/Swift: Fixed a potential crash due to a race condition during engine shutdown with active network requests.
- Editor/Flutter: Fixed an issue where effects applied to paused videos were not immediately visible when using TextureView.

Version 1.65.0
Released: December 5, 2025
--------------------------------------------------
**Breaking Changes**
**Non Breaking Changes**
- Editor: Improved the visisbility of the page boundaries by adding a slight outline to it, can be changed with setting `pageHighlightColor`.
- Editor/Web: Add `isSearchable` field to `AssetLibraryEntry` to indicate if an entry supports searching. The search field in asset library panels is now only shown when at least one currently rendered entry is searchable
- Engine: Text blocks are now automatically deleted when exiting text edit mode if they are completely empty and the `lifecycle/destroy` scope permits deletion
- Engine: Add `removeUndoStep` API to remove the last history state from the undo stack
- Engine: Option+Backspace and Command+Backspace text editing shortcuts.
- Engine: Add `getLayout` and `setLayout` APIs to dynamically change scene layouts after scene creation: supports transitions between Free, VerticalStack, HorizontalStack, and DepthStack layouts. When transitioning from stack to Free layout, page visual positions are preserved to maintain the existing layout appearance.
- Engine: Added `setTextCursorRange` API to set text cursor position and selection range in text blocks. Supports cursor positioning (`from == to`), range selection (`from < to`), and select-all (`from: -1, to: -1`). The API validates inputs and returns errors for invalid ranges (e.g., `from > to`). If the range exceeds text length, it is automatically clamped to valid bounds.
- Engine/Android: Fixed race condition where audio/video decoders could access freed AVContainer memory causing segmentation faults when replacing media with uploaded files.
- Editor/Flutter: Improved error messaging when Kotlin Compose compiler plugin is unavailable, providing clearer diagnostics for build configuration issues
- Editor/RN: Improved error messaging when Kotlin Compose compiler plugin is unavailable, providing clearer diagnostics for build configuration issues
- Engine: Fixed look up of LUT filter effect from an archived scene.
- Editor/Flutter: Fixed an issue where effects applied to paused videos were not immediately visible when using TextureView.
- Engine: Add undo step support for keyboard-based block nudging. When moving blocks with arrow keys (or Shift+Arrow for faster movement), undo/redo now works correctly.
- Engine: Fixed pixelation of image fills when adjustment effects are applied by selectively disabling mipmaps only for effects that manipulate UV coordinates
- Engine: Added `allowTextOverhang` flag to `ExportOptions` to optionally include text glyph overhangs during export, preventing clipping of decorative fonts (defaults to false)
- Engine: It is now possible to resize and rotate text blocks while editing text by enabling the new `textEditModeTransformHandlesEnabled` feature flag (off by default).
- Engine: Scene loading APIs (`loadSceneFromString`, `loadSceneFromURL`, `loadSceneFromArchiveURL`) now defer their completion callbacks until layout is complete
- Engine: Fixed `saveToArchive` crashing when scene resources contain template variables (e.g., `{{appearanceId}}`) in their URLs. Template variables are now resolved before archiving.
- Engine: Text styling operations (color, font size, bold, italic, typeface, etc.) now apply to the entire text when called in edit mode with no selection. Previously, these operations only affected the cursor position style for future typed characters.
- Engine: Scene loading APIs now have an additional option to defer their completion callbacks until all resources are loaded
Version 1.64.0
Released: November 21, 2025
--------------------------------------------------
**New platform**
Added a new platform for CE.SDK: the CE.SDK Renderer can be used on Linux servers inside a Docker container to render CE.SDK scene and archive files.
GPU acceleration and video codecs are supported, allowing for simpler and faster server-side exporting workflows.
**Breaking Changes**
- Editor/Web: Number inputs and text inputs now require Enter key or blur to confirm changes by default. This prevents accidental changes while typing and provides a more intentional editing experience.
- Engine: Video files that only contain unsupported audio tracks are now reported in error state when adding them instead of automatically removing all audio. This prevents exports with missing audio. Happens, for example, for videos with PCM audio. The audio needs to be removed manually to get these files loaded.
- Editor/Android: Replaced the `EngineConfiguration.systemGallery` flag with the explicit `SystemGalleryPermission.setMode` opt-in, so projects enable the gallery inside their `onCreate` scope and can update it at runtime.
- Editor/Android: Simplified the opt-in flow – `SystemGalleryPermission.setMode` controls the GalleryPermissionManager, and the editor registers the gallery asset sources inline, so no extra engine helpers are required.
- Editor/Android: Cleared persisted gallery selections so gallery content is session based, matching the manual opt-in workflow.
**Non Breaking Changes**
- Editor/Web: Add canvas menu options customization support. The canvas menu "more options" button now supports customization via the builder API, allowing integrators to add, remove, or reorder menu items. Individual action components (flip horizontal, flip vertical, copy, paste) are now available as separate registered components for maximum flexibility.
- Editor/iOS: Add support for custom crop sheets with automatic edit mode association through the new optional `associatedEditMode` parameter in `openSheet` event.
- Editor/Web: Enhanced `AssetLibraryDockComponent` with optional `onClick`, `selected`, `disabled`, `size`, `variant`, and `colour` properties for greater customization and control over asset library dock buttons
- Editor/iOS: Add `OnLoaded.Callback` to execute custom logic when the editor finishes loading
- Editor/iOS: Add Force Crop feature via `EditorEvents.ApplyForceCrop` event using `context.eventHandler.send(.applyForceCrop(to:with:mode:))`
- Editor/Web: Added 33 granular feature flags for placeholder settings control. Customers can now individually enable/disable placeholder options (opacity, blend mode, arrange, fill, stroke, text, appearance) using hierarchical feature IDs like `ly.img.placeholder.general.opacity` or disable entire sections with `ly.img.placeholder.general`. All features are enabled by default for backward compatibility.
- Engine/Web: Add public zoom utility methods (`cesdk.utils.zoom.toLevel()`, `cesdk.utils.zoom.in()`, `cesdk.utils.zoom.out()`) for controlling canvas zoom programmatically
- Editor/Web: Refactor internal zoom handling to use centralized actions API instead of facade methods
- Editor/Web: Improve zoom behavior consistency across UI components (NavigationBar, Canvas shortcuts, ActionsStore)
- Editor/Web: Add automatic page zoom with padding on scene load and page focus operations
- Editor/Android: The `license` parameter in `EngineConfiguration` is now nullable. Pass `null` to run the SDK in evaluation mode with a watermark.
- Editor/iOS: The `license` parameter in `EngineSettings` is now nullable. Pass `nil` to run the SDK in evaluation mode with a watermark.
- Editor/Flutter: The `license` parameter in `EditorSettings` is now nullable. Pass `null` to run the SDK in evaluation mode with a watermark.
- Editor/React Native: The `license` parameter in `EditorSettings` is now nullable. Pass `null` to run the SDK in evaluation mode with a watermark.
- Camera/Android: The `license` parameter in `EngineConfiguration` is now nullable. Pass `null` to run the SDK in evaluation mode with a watermark.
- Camera/iOS: The `license` parameter in `EngineSettings` is now nullable. Pass `nil` to run the SDK in evaluation mode with a watermark.
- Camera/Flutter: The `license` parameter in `CameraSettings` is now nullable. Pass `null` to run the SDK in evaluation mode with a watermark.
- Camera/React Native: The `license` parameter in `CameraSettings` is now nullable. Pass `null` to run the SDK in evaluation mode with a watermark.
- Engine: Introduce Safe Area Insets API to automatically adjust viewport rendering for UI overlays (toolbars, navigation bars, etc.). Configure insets via `editor.setSafeAreaInsets()` to ensure scene content remains visible and properly framed within the effective viewport. All camera operations (zoom, pan, clamp) automatically respect these insets. Defaults to zero insets (no adjustment)
- Editor/Web: Added comprehensive speed and duration controls to the inspector for video and audio blocks. Speed can be adjusted from 0.25x to 3x with quick-access presets (0.25x, 0.5x, 1.0x, 2.0x, 3.0x) or custom values. Duration can be set using time format (HH:MM:SS) for precise clip timing.
- Editor/Web: Implemented automatic collision detection and track management. When a clip grows due to speed or duration changes and would overlap with adjacent clips, it automatically moves to a newly created track above its current position, preventing unwanted content overwriting.
- Engine: Lifted the 3x playback-speed cap for video fills while keeping the existing limit for audio blocks. Videos running faster than 3x are muted automatically until their speed is lowered again, ensuring consistent audio behaviour across platforms.
- Editor/Web: Add new loading animation for the editor.
- Editor/Android: Fixed crashes and UI state issues when changing scenes at runtime by ensuring all components properly subscribe to active scene changes and reinitialize their state.
- Editor/Flutter: Fixed an issue where effects applied to paused videos were not immediately visible when using TextureView.

Version 1.63.0
Released: November 7, 2025
--------------------------------------------------
**Breaking Changes**
- Editor/Web: Migrated document colors to use engine-native `ly.img.scene.colors` asset source, removing the frontend implementation entirely. The old `ly.img.colors.documentColors` source ID is no longer available. Custom integrations explicitly referencing the old source ID must update configurations to use `ly.img.scene.colors` instead. The migration is automatic for users relying on default configurations.
- Editor/iOS: Add support for groups in video editor timeline
- Editor/Android: Add support for groups in video editor timeline
- Editor/iOS: Removed `DefaultAssetLibrary.textAndTextComponents` property. Use `DefaultAssetLibrary.text` instead, which now includes text components by default.

- Engine: The `createAudioFromVideo` and `createAudiosFromVideo` APIs now have an `AudioFromVideoOptions` parameter consisting of:
- `keepTrimSettings` (default: `true`): When enabled, the extracted audio block will have the same duration as the video's effective (trimmed) duration. When disabled, the full audio track is extracted.
- `muteOriginalVideo` (default: `false`): When enabled, the original video's audio track is muted after extraction.
- Editor/Web: Add new "modern" UI scaling option
**Non Breaking Changes**
- Engine: Added `isCropAspectRatioLocked()` and `setCropAspectRatioLocked()` APIs to query and control crop aspect ratio locking. When enabled, crop handles maintain the current aspect ratio during resize operations.
- Editor/Web: Improved crop panel aspect ratio lock button to control both text inputs and crop handles, with automatic synchronization when selecting crop presets (1:1, Free, etc.).
- Editor/iOS: Added `assetSourceIDs` parameter to `SheetType.crop` allowing to specify asset sources for the crop sheet used by `InspectorBar.Buttons.crop` and `Dock.Buttons.crop` actions.
- Editor/Web: Add native eye dropper tool for color sampling in color inspector and color preview boxes (Chrome, Edge, Opera)
- Engine: Added `findAllMediaURIs` API that retrieves all valid media file URIs (http://, https://, file://) referenced by blocks in a scene
- Engine/Web: Licenses are now optional. Without a license, a watermark is shown on exports. Licenses remove the watermark and are required for production use.
- Editor/Web: Updated all examples to demonstrate the SDK works without a license.
- Engine/Web: Added video support for Safari 26.0 and newer.
- Engine: Added editor APIs to enable or disable selection for a block and query its current selection state via `setSelectionEnabled` and `isSelectionEnabled`.

- Engine/Android: Fixed empty audio in exported videos for some video files especially on the Samsung Galaxy S24 and S25 devices.
- Editor/Android: Fixed a jump of the video preview playback position if the video is paused and set to playing again.
- Editor/iOS: Fixed crop rectangle not expanding back to full size after multiple rotations with fixed aspect ratios
- Editor/Web: Fixed broken ligatures in ElsieSwashCaps font
- Editor/Android: Fixed broken ligatures in ElsieSwashCaps font
- Editor/iOS: Fixed broken ligatures in ElsieSwashCaps font
- Editor: Improve selection frame handle visibility for text blocks with fixed frame widths by prioritizing right side handle over corner handles when overlapping
- Editor/Web: Fixed video playback being stopped by selection changes when using the API to programmatically start playback. A 300ms grace period now allows initialization sequences to complete without interference while preserving the UI behavior of stopping playback when users manually click on clips.
- Editor/Web: Add feature flag `ly.img.crop.panel.autoOpen` to control automatic opening of crop panel when entering crop edit mode (defaults to `true` for backward compatibility)
- Editor/Web: Importing scenes from archives is now more memory efficient. Blob URLs are now used instead of Data URLs avoiding base64 encoding overhead.
- fix(Engine): Fix Document Color showing multiple highlights (default and selected color) after changing text color
- Engine/Web: Add `objectURL` return type to `utils.loadFile()` API for efficient blob URL creation without manual conversion. This avoids base64 encoding overhead when loading large archive files.
- Editor/iOS: Fixed potential voiceover crashes
- Editor/Web: Fix document color selection state not updating properly when selected element changes
Version 1.62.0
Released: October 22, 2025
--------------------------------------------------
**Breaking Changes**
- Editor/Web: Modernized editor theme with refined color palette, unified elevation surfaces, and improved visual hierarchy.
- Engine/Android: Fixed crash on calling `AssetApi.fetchAsset`.
- Engine/Android: Replaced `AssetSource.fetchAsset(id:)` with `AssetSource.fetchAsset(id:options:)` by adding `FetchAssetOptions` argument. The replaced function `AssetSource.fetchAsset(id:)` won't be called anymore. Asset sources that implemented this old optional method need to be updated.
- Engine/iOS: Replaced `AssetSource.fetchAsset(id:)` with `AssetSource.fetchAsset(id:options:)` by adding `FetchAssetOptions` argument. The replaced function `AssetSource.fetchAsset(id:)` won't be called anymore. Asset sources that implemented this old optional method need to be updated.
- Editor/Web: Clips added from the asset library will now no longer be automatically added to the background track when the timeline is still empty
- Engine: The 'unstable_exportAudio' API was renamed to 'exportAudio' and is now able to export audio from scenes, pages, tracks, audio blocks and blocks with video fills.
- Audio can be exported to either 'audio/wav' and 'audio/mp4':
- When exporting audio from either an audio block or a block with a video fill, if the underlying resource is not compatible with the requested mime type, the audio is first transcoded. Otherwise, the audio data is returned immediately.
- Added the flag 'skipEncoding' to the AudioExportOptions (disabled by default). Enabling it will allow getting the audio data from buffers directly while bypassing encoding (even if it is needed).
**Non Breaking Changes**
- Editor/Web: Added `cesdk.i18n.listLocales()` method to retrieve available locales with optional wildcard pattern matching.
- Editor/Web: Added `cesdk.actions.list()` method to retrieve registered actions with optional wildcard pattern matching.

- Editor/Web: Update middleware to support conditional clip placement based on `clipType` context parameter
- Editor/Web: Add `clipType` option to `AssetLibraryPanelPayload` for panel-level placement configuration
- Editor/Web: Update `addClip` action to use `clipType: 'overlay'` for correct background track placement
- Engine/Web: Deprecate `ui.colorLibraries`, `ui.typefaceLibraries`, `ui.pagePresetsLibraries`, and `ui.cropPresetsLibraries` configuration properties in favor of the new API-driven approach using `cesdk.ui.updateAssetLibraryEntry()`. The deprecated properties will be automatically migrated with console warnings. See migration guide in the deprecation warnings for details.
- Engine/Web: Add `@deprecated` JSDoc marker to `ui.pageFormats` configuration property. This property is now deprecated in favor of using `cesdk.ui.updateAssetLibraryEntry('ly.img.pagePresets', { sourceIds: [...] })`.
- Engine: Now supports evaluation mode without providing a license
- Editor/Web: Remove loading indicator text from editor
- Editor/Web: Deprecated `configuration.ui.elements.dock.iconSize` in favor of `cesdk.engine.editor.setSetting('dock/iconSize', 'normal' | 'large')`.
- Editor/Web: Deprecated `configuration.ui.elements.dock.hideLabels`in favor of `cesdk.engine.editor.setSetting('dock/hideLabels', boolean)`.
- Engine/Swift: Added a parameter `onDisallowedResourceScheme` to `SceneAPI.saveToString` and `BlockAPI.saveToString` to allow the opportunity to persist transient or temporary resources.

- Editor/Web: Add `currentIds` parameter to `updateAssetLibraryEntry` sourceIds callback for easier extension of existing source IDs without manual `getAssetLibraryEntry` calls
- Engine: Fixed `getAVResourceTotalDuration` on a video fill from an imported archive not returning the correct value.
Version 1.61.0
Released: October 8, 2025
--------------------------------------------------
**Breaking Changes**

Released: May 19, 2025
--------------------------------------------------
**Breaking Changes**
- Editor/iOS: Added new SwiftUI view modifiers: `.imgly.navigationBarItems` and `.imgly.modifyNavigationBarItems`, which allow customization of the navigation bar (a list of items shown at the top of the editor). With this change, the button used to dismiss the editor should now always be managed through these new APIs, rather than being injected externally via a regular `.toolbar` modifier. The `BackButtonHiddenKey` preference key, previously used to control the visibility of the back button, has been marked as unavailable in favor of the new `NavigationBar.Buttons.closeEditor` button.
- Editor: Add new 'Font Combinations' asset source to our demo assets. It's enabled by default in our static design editors. To disable, exclude `ly.img.textComponents` from `addDemoAssetSources`. Font combinations make use of groups and have limited editing experiences in our video-based editors for now and are therefore disabled there by default. When using these combinations, be aware that the resulting blocks reference font resources in our CDN. These will be replaced with archives in a future release to further decouple resources.
- Editor/iOS: Fixed scene mode not being available in `AssetLibrary` by removing `@Environment(\.imglyAssetLibrarySceneMode)` from the public API. Use `AssetLibrarySceneModeReader` instead.

Version 1.44.0
Released: February 6, 2025
--------------------------------------------------
**Breaking Changes**
- Engine/Android: Added a feature flag engine setting `"features/p3WorkingColorSpace"`. When enabled, the editor displays P3 colors correctly and image exports result in 16 bit images in the P3 color space as opposed to the default 8 bit sRGB exports. This setting is only supported on devices that provide support for displaying P3 and working with 16 bit colors and is ignored on other devices. Targa image exports and exports with a color mask continue to produce 8 bit results.
- Engine/Android: Added the `EditorApi.supportsP3` API with a boolean return value which can be used to determine whether the current device supports working and exporting in the P3 color space.
- Engine/Android: Added the `EditorApi.checkP3Support` API which can be used to determine whether the current device supports working and exporting in the P3 color space with an error description in case P3 is not supported.
- Engine/Swift: Renamed the `features/exportP3Images` setting to `features/p3WorkingColorSpace` and adjusted its behavior to be consistent with that on Android. Enabling this setting will cause the editor to now work in the Display P3 color space instead of an extended sRGB color space.
- Engine/Swift: Added the `EditorAPI.supportsP3` API with a boolean return value which can be used to determine whether the current device supports working and exporting in the P3 color space.
- Engine/Swift: Added the `EditorAPI.checkP3Support` API which can be used to determine whether the current device supports working and exporting in the P3 color space with an error description in case P3 is not supported.

- Editor/Web: Improved build quality and size of CDN deployment.
Version 1.43.0
Released: January 21, 2025
--------------------------------------------------
**Breaking Changes**
- Editor/iOS: Changed type `EditorEvent` from enum to protocol. Short-hand syntax of prior enum cases, e.g., `.shareFile(_ url:)`, is preserved via extensions of the new protocol type. Fully qualified prior enum cases, e.g., `EditorEvent.shareFile(_ url:)`, won't compile anymore and should be changed to the short-hand syntax. All provided event types can now also be accessed through the new `EditorEvents` (plural `s`) namespace, e.g., `EditorEvents.ShareFile` but can only be initialized with the short-hand syntax.
**Non Breaking Changes**

- Engine: Added the `supportsPageDurationSource`, `setPageDurationSource`, `isPageDurationSource`, and `removePageDurationSource` block API to allow setting a duration source block in video scenes, which then automatically defines the overall duration. A call of the `getDuration` block API on a page returns then the duration and offset of the defining element. See [documentation](https://img.ly/docs/cesdk/engine/api/block-video/#time-offset-and-duration) for more details.
- Engine: Updated the `getDuration` block API to allow for automatic duration calculations in a video scenes. If no duration source block is set, the method returns automatically the overall duration over all page children. See [documentation](https://img.ly/docs/cesdk/engine/api/block-video/#time-offset-and-duration) for more details.
- Editor/Web: Fix crash when loading certain scene files while audio is playing

See [documentation](https://img.ly/docs/cesdk/engine/api/block-text).
Version 1.41.0
Released: December 11, 2024
--------------------------------------------------
**Breaking Changes**
- Engine: To keep text visually the same size when the DPI setting is changed in scenes with pixel design-unit, the font sizes are now automatically scaled. Before text would appear smaller/larger when the DPI decreases/increases. This should usually be the desired behavior. If the old behavior should be kept, the font sizes can be scaled with `newDPI/previousDPI` when the dpi in pixel scenes is changed.
**Non Breaking Changes**
- Engine: Added a new boolean engine setting `page/moveChildrenWhenCroppingFill` for keeping the position, rotation and size of children of a page in sync with crop edits to the page's fill.

If set, the crop values of, e.g., image fills are automatically updated so that the image is not stretched or squashed, see [documentation](https://img.ly/docs/cesdk/engine/api/block-layout/#size).
- Engine: Fixed `fillParent` block API to resize cropped elements without distorting their fill.
- Editor/Web: Fix an issue where calling engine APIs inside the asset library entries style callback would not trigger reactivity.
Version 1.40.1
Released: December 6, 2024
--------------------------------------------------
**Breaking Changes**
**Non Breaking Changes**
- Engine/Android: Fix a video encoder crash if export is cancelled
Version 1.40.0
Released: November 28, 2024
--------------------------------------------------
**Breaking Changes**
- Engine: Updated the `setTypeface` block API to allow change of the typeface also for text runs. This enables to use different typefaces in one text block. Setting a typeface witout specifying a range while text is selected by the user or with the `SetSelectionRange` command now changes the typeface only for the selection. This is usually the desired behavior. To retain the old behavior of changing the typeface of the whole block, specify the range to cover the whole text, i.e., `from = 0, to = textLength`. See [set typeface documentation](https://img.ly/docs/cesdk/engine/api/block-text/#blockapisettypeface) and [text properties documentation](https://img.ly/docs/cesdk/engine/guides/text-properties/#typefaces) for more details.
- Engine: Updated the `setTypeface` block API to no longer need a fallback font file URI as parameter. The font fallback will be handled automatically. See [set typeface documentation](https://img.ly/docs/cesdk/engine/api/block-text/#blockapisettypeface) for more details.
- Engine: Added the `getTypefaces` block API to allow querying of all typefaces of a text run. It is recommended to switch out `getTypeface` with the new API as `getTypeface` only returns the default typeface, i.e., the property 'text/typeface' set on the text block. See [get typefaces documentation](https://img.ly/docs/cesdk/engine/api/block-text/#blockapigettypefaces), [get typeface documentation](https://img.ly/docs/cesdk/engine/api/block-text/#blockapigettypefaces),and [text properties documentation](https://img.ly/docs/cesdk/engine/guides/text-properties/#typefaces) for more details.
- Engine: Updated the `setTypeface` block API to no longer need a fallback font file URI as parameter. The font fallback will be handled automatically. See [block docs](https://img.ly/docs/cesdk/engine/api/block-text/#blockapisettypeface) for more details.
**Non Breaking Changes**
- Engine/Swift: Added a feature flag engine setting `"features/exportP3Images"`. When enabled, the editor displays P3 colors correctly and image exports result in 16 bit images in the P3 color space as opposed to the default 8 bit sRGB exports. This setting is currently only supported on iOS and is ignored on other platforms. Targa image exports and exports with a color mask continue to produce 8 bit results.

--------------------------------------------------
**Breaking Changes**
- Editor/Web: The `@cesdk/cesdk-js` used to bundle the `@cesdk/engine` project
internally. Now, the two packages are separate and the CESDK has the engine

Version 1.34.0
Released: August 31, 2024
--------------------------------------------------
**Breaking Changes**
- Editor/Web, Engine/Web: Configuration options, APIs and types that have been deprecated in
Version 1.13 have been removed.
The `ConfigTypes` namespace has been removed and the following type definitions in it have been removed without replacement since they are not used anymore:
- `ConfigTypes.Scene`
- `ConfigTypes.Page`
- `ConfigTypes.ColorDefinition`
- `Configtypes.ColorPaletteDefinition`
- `ConfigTypes.Variables`
- `ConfigTypes.VariableDefinition`
- `ConfigTypes.Callbacks`
- `ConfigTypes.TemplateDefinition`
- `ConfigTypes.Preset`
- `ConfigTypes.Presets`
- `ConfigTypes.AssetSources`
Other types in the `ConfigTypes` namespace might still be used and can be imported directly from `@cesdk/engine` or `@cesdk/cesdk-js`:
- `ConfigTypes.Color` as `PaletteColor`
- Asset source related types
- `ConfigTypes.QueryData` as `AssetQueryData`
- `ConfigTypes.AssetResult` as `AssetResult`
- `ConfigTypes.AssetsQueryResult` as `AssetsQueryResult`
- `ConfigTypes.AssetSource` as `AssetSource` when working with the Asset API
- `ConfigTypes.HexColorString` as `HexColorString`
- `ConfigTypes.PageFormatDefinition` as `PageFormatDefinition` from `@cesdk/cesdk-js`
- `ConfigTypes.TypefaceDefinition` as ~~`TypefaceDefinition`~~ (deprecated, use the [Asset API to define custom typefaces](https://img.ly/docs/cesdk/ui/guides/fonts-typefaces/) instead)
The following Settings have been removed. For detailed instructions on how to migrate away from them, consult the [*Migrating to v1.13*](https://img.ly/docs/cesdk/introduction/migration_1_13/) guide
- `config.scene`
- `config.page`
- `config.assetSources`
- `config.presets.colors`
- `config.presets.colorPalettes`
- `config.presets.pageFormats`
- `config.variables`
- `config.callbacks.logger`
- `config.initialImageURL`
- `config.initalSceneMode`
- `config.initialSceneString`
- `config.initialSceneURL`
- `config.presets.templates`: Since version 1.12 this setting has been deprecated. See the [Adding Templates](https://img.ly/docs/cesdk/ui/guides/custom-template-source/) guide for instructions on how to use the AssetAPI to add templates.
- `config.defaultFont`: Since version 1.13 it has been deprecated in the Engine, but not in the Editor. In the Editor **this setting has been ignored** since version 1.26. There is no replacement for this setting.
Additionally the following types and APIs have changed and might require adjustments:
- The `CreativeEditorSDK.init` method has been removed. Use `CreativeEditorSDK.create` instead
- The `CreateConfiguration` type exported from `@cesdk/cesdk-js` has been removed. Use `Configuration` instead.
- `CreativeEditorSDK.setVariableDefinitions` has been removed. Use the Variable API instead.
- Editor/Android: `onClose` callback now contains an optional `Throwable` parameter in the composable functions of all the solutions. If the value of this parameter is not null, it means that the editor is closed due to an error. The value is propagated from `EditorEventHandler.sendCloseEditorEvent`. Unless custom types are sent to this function, throwable is always going to be either an `EditorException` or `EngineException`.
**Non Breaking Changes**
- Engine: Fixed content-aware resize to not result in a distorted image if a page with an image fill is resized.
- Editor: Added drag selection for easy selection of multiple elements.
- Engine/Swift: New functions to load a scene from an archive, and to save and load block to an archive.
- Engine/Swift: Add `getState` and `setState` to manually set the state of a block to `.pending`, `.error` or `.ready`. Add `onStateChanged` to be notified of a block's change of state.
- Engine/Android: Add `getState` and `setState` to manually set the state of a block to `Pending`, `Error` or `Ready`. Add `onStateChanged` to be notified of a block's change of state.
- Editor/iOS: Fixed some videos that played back audio slower than expected.
- Engine: Use a more common time scale for the audio track of exported videos.

- Editor: Fixed the dimming overlay when editing the crop of an page with an image fill to only dim the part out of the page.
- Editor/Web: Select all elements after duplicating multiple elements
- Editor: Multi-selection of elements across different pages is disabled to prevent unexpected editing behavior.
- Editor: The `clampCameraCommand` skips clamping while the page size or position is being edited with user interaction. This prevents that the camera is changed, while editing the page with drag handles or gestures.
- Editor/Web: Fix canvas menu position on multiselection
- Engine: Fixed the `onClick` subscription to send notifications for clicks or taps that select elements that were previously not selected. In some cases, these events were not sent.

Version 1.10.5
Released: August 30, 2024
--------------------------------------------------
**Breaking Changes**
### Non Breaking Changes
Version 1.33.0
Released: August 23, 2024
--------------------------------------------------
**Breaking Changes**
- Engine: Improved `getCurrentPage()` to prioritize the selected page over the nearest page to the viewport center if the selected page is visible for more than 25%. The previous behavior can be retained by swapping out `getCurrentPage()` with, e.g., `findNearestToViewPortCenterByType(scene, "page").unwrap()[0]`.

**Breaking Changes**
**Non Breaking Changes**
- CESDK: Unsupported filetypes are handled during upload
Version 1.32.0
Released: August 6, 2024
--------------------------------------------------
**Breaking Changes**
- Editor/Web: The configuration `config.ui.elements.libraries.insert.entries`, `config.ui.elements.dock.groups` and `config.ui.elements.dock.defaultGroupId` is now deprecated in favor of the new Asset Library Entry and Dock APIs. During this deprecation phase `config.ui.elements.libraries.insert.entries` is still called but with a slightly different behavior. Instead of being called repeatedly with the current context (like the selected block), it is now called only once while the editor initializes. Most use-cases should not be affected by this breaking change, but if you rely on this behavior you need to migrate to the use of the Asset Library Entry and Dock APIs and change the dock in a selection subscription.
- Editor/Web: The configuration `config.ui.elements.libraries.replace.entries` is now deprecated in favor of the new Asset Library Entry API and `cesdk.ui.setReplaceAssetLibraryEntries`. Until it is removed, `config.ui.elements.libraries.replace.entries` will still be called and migrated to return IDs of entries that should be available via the Asset Library Entry API. If an entry is returned with an ID that is not present in the store, it will be added. If the returned entry differs from the store, a warning will be printed.

--------------------------------------------------
**Breaking Changes**
- Engine: Fixed depiction of SVG images with content exceeding the SVG viewport/viewbox. The outside content is now properly clipped.
- Engine: Scenes in video mode are now structured differently. Instead of the scene forming a single timeline which plays each page in order, now every page has its own independent timeline. The APIs for querying and adjusting the playback time and for exporting videos have to be called on the page blocks. Audio blocks have to be parented to the page in which they should play, as opposed to being parented to the scene like they were before.
- Engine: `BlockAPI.exportVideo` now requires a page block instead of a scene.
- Engine: Remove `scene/defaultPageDuration` property.

Version 1.20.0
Released: January 25, 2024
--------------------------------------------------
**Breaking Changes**
- Editor: The distributed file for the CE.SDK (`@cesdk/cesdk-js` package on npm)
has changed from the CommonJS to the ECMAScript Module format. This means:
- If you've been using the CE.SDK from your own `node_modules` folder in combination
with a bundler, nothing should change for you. The bundler will process the module
as before.
- If you were loading our CDN version directly into your web page, and then accessing
the `CreativeEditorSDK` global variable, we instead recommend to either change your
script to ECMAScript module, or use the `import()` function to load the `CreativeEditorSDK`:
```html
```
```html
```
- Engine: Fixed visual glitches in the following effects: "Pixelize", "Radial Pixel", and "Dot Pattern"
- Engine: We've added a new feature called `sourceSet` to image fills. This lets you use a group of images, each with different sizes, to draw the image. The engine will pick the best size and load it as needed. You can learn more about this in [the guide](https://img.ly/docs/cesdk/engine/guides/source-sets/). Remember, if you have a `fileImageURI`, the `sourceSet` will take precedence. If your code changes the `imageFileURI`, you need to update it to work with the `sourceSet` as well.
- Editor: We've updated our Unsplash and Demo sources. They now come with a full set of images in different sizes. This means that any block you create using an image from these sources will automatically have its `sourceSet` property populated.
**Non Breaking Changes**
- Engine: Exported TGA images now include an alpha channel.
- Editor: Assets from the asset library can now be dragged on the canvas to apply the asset
- Editor/Web: Fix potentially corrupted video export.
- Editor: Added new settings to configure how the page title is displayed, see [documentation](https://img.ly/docs/cesdk/engine/api/editor-settings?language=javascript&platform=web#pagetitlesettings).
- Editor: Adds `setPanelPosition` to the UserInterface API
- Editor: Adds `setPanelFloating` to the UserInterface API
- Editor: Adds options to `openPanel` to override position and floating settings
- Editor: CanvasMenu component border color uses token `--ubq-border-default` and has box shadow added.
- Editor/Engine: Using a web worker for video exports
- Engine: Added mousewheel support
The CreativeEngine canvas now supports mouse wheel events on the canvas to
scroll and zoom the scene. The CreativeEngine instance gained a new method,
`setWheelEventTarget`, which can be used to reinstall the event listener on
another DOM element. This can be useful for situations where custom DOM
elments are positioned on top of the canvas.
Two engine settings have been added to enable/disable scrolling and zooming:
`mouse/enableZoom` and `mouse/enableScroll`, both default to true.
- Engine: Removed arbitrary strings for engine settings from the TypeScript
definitions. Passing arbitrary strings to methods such as `setSettingBool` or
`setSettingString` was never actually supported. The types have been adjusted
to reflect that fact.
- Editor/Engine: The Typescript types of the `getSetting`/`setSetting` methods
in the EditorAPI have been made more strict:
- Previously, Typescript allowed arbitrary strings as keys, which would
have led to an error at runtime. These have been removed.
- Support for prefixing settings keys with `ubq://` will be removed in a
future version. The function signatures have been updates to provide a
deprecation warning.
- A few boolean settings not meant for public use have been removed.
- Engine: Add support XAVC videos.
- Engine/Editor: Add missing settings to the Typescript type definitions in the
EditorAPI.
Version 1.19.0
Released: December 13, 2023
--------------------------------------------------
Check our [migration guide](https://img.ly/docs/cesdk/introduction/migration_1_19/) for more details on the changes.
**Breaking Changes**
- The editor now sets all scopes directly for the selected target block. (Previously, the scope `content/replace` was set for the associated fill block instead.)
- Use of the following scopes is being deprecated in favor of new, more granular scopes:
- `content/replace` - Use a combination of `fill/change` and `text/edit` instead.

- `design/arrange/move` - Use `layer/move` instead.
- `design/arrange/resize` - Use `layer/resize` instead.
- `design/arrange/flip` - Use `layer/flip` instead.
- `design/arrange/rotate` - Use `layer/rotate` instead.
- `design/style` - Use a combination of `layer/opacity`, `layer/blendMode`, `appearance/adjustments`, `appearance/blur`, `appearance/effect`, `appearance/filter`, `appearance/shadow`, `shape/change`, `stroke/change`, `fill/change`, and `text/character` instead.

- `scope.layer.opacity`
- `scope.shape.change`
- `scope.stroke.change`
- `scope.text.character`
- `scope.text.edit`
- Editor: Switched to using the new Graphic block for images, videos, shapes, etc… for a more unified experience across different design elements
- Editor: Introduced a new Content Fill Inspector that allows switching the fill of Graphic blocks between video, image, and color
- Editor: All of the Graphic blocks (shapes, images, videos, etc…) now support filters, effects, blurs and adjustments

Old scenes are automatically migrated when they get loaded. For a full list and detailed description of how to adapt to these changes, check out our [documentation](https://img.ly/docs/cesdk/js/to-v1-19-55bcad/)
- Engine: Added optional `shapeType`, `fillType` and `kind` keys to our asset definitions. Fill type ids may not be set as the value of the `blockType` property any more. E.g. in order to create a video asset, `blockType` should now be set to `//ly.img.ubq/graphic` and `fillType` should be set to `//ly.img.ubq/fill/video`.
- Engine/Web: Introduced new union types:
- `DesignBlockTypesShorthand`, `DesignBlockTypesLonghand`, `DesignBlockTypes` for top-level design blocks.
- `ShapeTypesShorthand`, `ShapeTypesLonghand`, `ShapeTypes` for shape blocks.
- `FillTypesShorthand`, `FillTypesLonghand`, `FillTypes` for fill blocks.
- `EffectTypesShorthand`, `EffectTypesLonghand`, `EffectTypes` for effect blocks.
- `BlurTypesShorthand`, `BlurTypesLonghand`, `BlurTypes` for blur blocks.

- Engine/Web: The `create` API now expects an ID of type `DesignBlockTypes` instead `DesignBlockType`.
- Engine/Web: The `createFill` API now expects an ID of type `FillTypes` instead of `string`.
- Engine/Web: The `getType` API now returns an ID of type `BlockTypesLonghand` instead of `DesignBlockType`.

The CreativeEngine canvas now supports mouse wheel events on the canvas to
scroll and zoom the scene. The CreativeEngine instance gained a new method,
`setWheelEventTarget`, which can be used to reinstall the event listener on
another DOM element. This can be useful for situations where custom DOM
elments are positioned on top of the canvas.
Two engine settings have been added to enable/disable scrolling and zooming:
`mouse/enableZoom` and `mouse/enableScroll`, both default to true.

Version 1.10.0
Released: March 14, 2023
--------------------------------------------------
See the [announcement post](https://img.ly/blog/creative-editor-sdk-v_1_10_0-release-notes/) for details on features.
**Breaking Changes**
> ⚠️ Starting with `v1.10.0` we no longer ship our default assets within the `assets/extensions` folder. Instead, both engine and UIs now offer convenience `addDefaultAssetSources` endpoints, that selectively register asset sources, that serve our default assets. If you're actively using the example assets we shipped **before** `v1.10.0`, check the [Serving Assets Guide](https://img.ly/docs/cesdk/next/engine/guides/assets-served-from-your-own-servers/) for your target platform.
> ⚠️ Image uploads are no longer stored in the scene and will not reappear upon scene load. To offer specific assets in your editor, configure and [add an asset source](https://img.ly/docs/cesdk/engine/guides/integrate-a-custom-asset-source/) containing the desired assets.
_Asset Management_
- CESDK: Removed presets configuration for images (`presets.images`). Please use the local asset sources to add single images, e.g. with `AssetAPI#addAssetToSource`.
- UBQ: The `applyAsset` callbacks and `defaultApplyAsset` API now return an optional design block id in their callback if they created a new block
- UBQ: Removed the required `thumbUri` and `size` properties from `AssetDefinition` and `AssetResult`. They are now stored under the `thumbUri`, `width` and `height` keys in the `meta` property dictionary
- UBQ: Values of the `blockType` asset meta property must now be design block type ids (e.g. `//ly.img.ubq/image`)
- CESDK: Removed the `AssetElement`, `ImageElement`, `VideoElement` and `AudioElement` types and replaced them with `AssetDefinition`
- CESDK: The `onUpload` callback must now return an instance of `AssetDefinition`
- UBQ: Renamed default upload source for images (`ly.img.upload`) to `ly.img.image.upload` to match naming of video and audio upload sources.
- UBQ: Upload asset sources and library entries for video and audio were added to the default configuration from `addDefaultAssetSources`. If you have added these sources manually (like mentioned in our docs) you can remove it now.
_General_
- CESDK: Fix text-alignment `center` and `bottom` not working properly since v1.5.0 for the case when a fixed frame size was used and the text exceeded the frame. This can cause text elements with a fixed frame and `center` or `bottom` text alignment, where the text exceeds the frame, to render differently than before.
_APIs & Properties_
- UBQ: Renamed Audio's and VideoFill's specific looping, volume, and muted properties to share a common playback prefix:
- `'fill/video/looping'` and `'audio/looping'` are now `'playback/looping'`
- `'fill/video/volume'` and `'audio/volume'` are now `'playback/volume'`
- `'fill/video/muted'` and `'audio/muted'` are now `'playback/muted'`
- UBQ: Deprecated the `camera/clearColor` property and replaced it with a global `clearColor` setting.
- UBQ: Deprecated fill color related APIs in favor of a 'Fill' based approach
- Deprecated `hasFillColor`, use `hasFill` and query `block.getEnum(id, 'fill/type')` for `Solid` type instead.
- Deprecated `get/setFillColorRGBA`, use `setFillSolidColor`instead..
- Deprecated `isFillColorEnabled`, use `isFillEnabled` instead.
- Deprecated `setFillType` and `setFillGradientType`, use `createFill`, e.g., with type 'color' and then apply the fill block with `setFill` to the block instead. If the block has a fill, it should be removed with `getFill` and `destroy`.
- Deprecated `getFillType` and `getFillGradientType`, query `block.getEnum(id, 'fill/type')` and `block.getEnum(id, 'fill/gradient/type')` instead instead
- Deprecated `add/removeFillGradientColorStop` and `get/setFillGradientColorStops`.
- Deprecated `get/setFillGradientControlPointX/Y`, use `block.getFloat(fill, keypath)` and `block.setFloat(fill, keypath, value)` with key paths 'fill/gradient/linear/startPointX/Y', 'fill/gradient/radial/centerPointX/Y', and 'fill/gradient/conical/centerPointX/Y' instead.
- Deprecated `get/setFillGradientRadius`, use `block.getFloat(fill, 'fill/gradient/radial/radius')` and `block.setFloat(fill, 'fill/gradient/radial/radius', value)` instead."

- CESDK: Setting `touchDragRequiresSelectionEnabled` changed to `touch/dragStartCanSelect` (inverted truth value)
- CESDK: Configuration `ui.elements.libraries.replace.entries` determines if a replace button will be shown for any block. If you have customized this configuration for images, you have to make this a function, check the argument for the selected block type, and only return your customization if an image is selected. Otherwise, you will see the replace button for non-image blocks as well. If you haven't customized this configuration you do not have to do anything. See documentation for further information.
