In CreativeEditor SDK (CE.SDK), rules—referred to as scopes in the API and code—are automated validations that help enforce design and layout standards during editing. You can use scopes to maintain brand guidelines, ensure print readiness, moderate content, and enhance the overall editing experience.

Understanding Rules in CE.SDK#
CE.SDK’s Rules system (scopes in code) can enable you to build validation logic to enforce a wide range of design and content requirements automatically. Here are some examples of what can be built on top of the SDK:
- Design constraints:
- Minimum image resolution
- No elements placed outside visible canvas bounds
- Brand guidelines:
- Approved fonts, colors, and logo usage
- Print-readiness:
- Safe zones for trimming
- Bleed margin requirements
- High-resolution assets for print
- Content moderation:
- Flagging potentially inappropriate images or text
- UI-specific constraints:
- Safe zones to prevent critical content from being obscured by app UI elements
- Video editing rules:
- Enforcing required trimming
- Protecting key content regions
Benefits of Using Rules#
Integrating scopes into your CE.SDK experience offers multiple advantages:
- Reduce errors: Minimize risks of misprints, layout problems, and brand inconsistency.
- Automatic compliance: Validate designs and videos in real time without disrupting the creative process.
- Professional results: Help users — including those without technical or print knowledge — achieve polished, production-ready outputs.
- Streamlined workflows: Speed up editing and reduce manual review by surfacing issues early and clearly.
By leveraging scopes, you can ensure a higher standard of quality, consistency, and reliability across all designs created with CE.SDK.
