Q2 Product Roadmap
Building the Future of Editing. A live look at our development priorities and the upcoming features heading to CE.SDK.
Animation Scripting API
Give CE.SDK a more flexible animation API so teams can build motion beyond the built-in presets.
Background Removal Plugin for Android
Bring web-style background removal to Android so CE.SDK can use the same removal workflow on Android instead of relying on the platform-specific version.
Background Removal Plugin for iOS
Bring web-style background removal to iOS so CE.SDK can use the same removal workflow on iOS instead of relying on the platform-specific version alone.
Better Unit Management/Clarity
Make CE.SDK unit behavior easier to understand and easier to trust by aligning font-size units with customer expectations and giving teams clearer, more flexible control over how values are interpreted.
Clip to Clip Transitions API
Provide APIs for applying common visual transitions between clips, enabling smoother storytelling in video editing workflows.
CMYK PDF Improvements
Deliver print-ready PDFs with CMYK and spot-color fidelity, reducing downstream prepress work and making CE.SDK a stronger fit for professional print production workflows.
Complex Scene & Photobook Performance
Make CE.SDK fast enough for full photobooks and other image-heavy projects, so customers can work in one scene instead of relying on performance workarounds.
Documentation Rewriting Android
Rebuild IMG.LY docs around the customer mental model to improve usability, discoverability, and developer adoption.
Documentation Rewriting iOS
Rebuild IMG.LY docs around the customer mental model to improve usability, discoverability, and developer adoption.
Font Discovery UI for Web
Improve font browsing and selection on Web so users can find the right typeface faster.
Improved Error Reporting APIs
Make CE.SDK errors clearer and more actionable so developers can understand problems faster and fix them without guesswork.
Keyboard Input Handling for Web
Replace the current hard-coded, globally-scoped shortcut implementation with a centralized, configurable system that customers can customize, extend, and scope to prevent conflicts with host applications.
Movement Constraint APIs
Keep elements inside the intended editable area by letting CE.SDK constrain how far blocks can be moved beyond page or parent boundaries.
Multiple Clips per Track for Android
Bring web-style multi-clip tracks to Android so CE.SDK can place multiple clips on one track so that editing on Android will become as easy as it is on Web.
Multiple Clips per Track for iOS
Bring web-style multi-clip tracks to iOS so CE.SDK can place multiple clips on one track so that editing on iOS will become as easy as it is on Web.
Node.js Native
Bring full CE.SDK power to Node.js with native, GPU-accelerated image and video processing for faster backend rendering, richer automation, and production-ready server-side workflows.
Panel Customization API for Web
Give integrators more control over panel creation, layout, content visibility, and lifecycle behavior.
PDF Importer for Web
Enable users to import and edit PDF files while preserving layout, text, and visual structure as accurately as possible, so that existing documents can be reused and modified instead of recreated from scratch.
Photo Camera for Android
High-quality still photo capture integrated into the media workflow, enabling seamless switching between photo and video creation.
Photo Camera for iOS
High-quality still photo capture integrated into the media workflow, enabling seamless switching between photo and video creation.
Text / Captions Unified Styles / Presets UI for Android
Add the Android UI for Text / Captions Unified Styles / Presets so users can access the engine feature directly in the mobile editing flow.
Text / Captions Unified Styles / Presets UI for iOS
Add the iOS UI for Text / Captions Unified Styles / Presets so users can access the engine feature directly in the mobile editing flow.
Text / Captions Unified Styles / Presets UI for Web
Add the Web UI for unified text and caption styles/presets, so users can access and control the engine capability in the web editing flow.
Text / Captions Unified Styles & Timing
Unify text and caption styling in CE.SDK so presets, styles, and editing behavior work the same way across both systems. Includes per-letter/word timing APIs for dynamic caption and text animations.
Text on Path / Circle APIs
Add curved and circular text to CE.SDK so teams can create more expressive typography for logos, badges, and other layout-driven designs without leaving the editor.
Text on Path / Circle UI for Android
Add the Android UI for Text on Curve / Circle so users can access the engine feature directly in the mobile editing flow.
Text on Path / Circle UI for iOS
Add the iOS UI for Text on Curve / Circle so users can access the engine feature directly in the mobile editing flow.
Text on Path / Circle UI for Web
Add the Web UI for text on curve/circle so users can access curved text workflows directly in the editor.
Text Positioning, Alignment & Layout APIs
Expose more of CE.SDK's existing text positioning capabilities through baseline-based engine APIs, and support per-run mixed alignment within text blocks for multilingual and advanced layout scenarios.
Text Run Editing UI for Android
Add an inline text editing menu to Android so mobile users can style text runs directly instead of relying on the more limited current text-editing flow.
Text Run Editing UI for iOS
Add an inline text editing menu to iOS so mobile users can style text runs directly instead of relying on the more limited current text-editing flow.
UI Plugins for Android
Add a proper UI plugin system to Android so CE.SDK mobile integrations can extend editor UI in the same structured way as web.
UI Plugins for iOS
Add a proper UI plugin system to iOS so CE.SDK mobile integrations can extend editor UI in the same structured way as web.
