Hello again, This week’s dev diary highlights some of the new features that can be found in today’s build of Elements (v0.7.3), including offsite links, code pages, SVG component improvements, and the long-requested “Display Hidden” option for components. Watch the video below to learn more about …

I love those new page and link option. :clap: On the link will there be a target? To open it in a new tab or window?

@dan While I love the idea of the changes to the SVG component, they are however creating a problem. I think there needs to be an option where I can choose to have Elements make the specified updates to the code. I use a lot of SVG images that have very specific coloring built into them and I want …

@dan Found a problem in the toolbar where the light and dark mode switches are over the breakpoint icons. [CleanShot 2025-04-08 at 07.07.49@2x] This appears to be caused by the fact that in this project I had light and dark mode turned off. I went to the project settings and toggled this setting …

I love the code/scripts addition. I need that for a couple of pages that are legacy as part of an API for external systems to call. Brilliant.

The link setup modal has a continue button that has the focus. Having entered the url of the link it seems the obvious next step is to click that button but it appears to act as a cancel button and no link is created. The link IS created if the keyboard return is used after keying in the link.

The whole files/pages thing seems to answer my request for site import. I might not be able to do it directly, but I can write a simple “stripper” that takes out the unn…

Can we have links to open up in a new browser tab or at least an option in the settings to choose whether or not to open that way? Or would we need to add target=blank somewhere?

I hate offsite pages, WHY? it takes you off your site and then you get carried away off your site. Is there a way to put an offsite page in a container on a page in your website? At least they stay on it that way? TIA

SVG will Fontawesome v7 be supported from June? TIA

Totally agree I have corporate icons which are specific Pantone colours so second this requirement. TIA

As replied on the other thread, we’ll add an option to turn off these optimisations on more complex SVG’s. Expect an update soon.
