Launched Elements and it gave me the update notification and I installed the update OK.

Nope. Maybe it is a country thing?

Really liking both the media object and card components. These will make it so much faster to do common grid style layouts.

The new inspector would be the perfect place to put component descriptions and Global previews as mentioned in another thread :slight_smile:

The update has broken a few of the tests I’ve been doing - I’m guessing due to the new sizing and alignment addirions. Even the RealMac supplied test LinkedIn project opened looking completely different to how it did in the previous beta.

Appreciate the continued improvements, many thanks.

Yes, in the testing I;'ve done it’s made it really fast to put together layouts :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Yes, it sure would!

Ah yes sorry about that, all of the layout components (grid, flex, and section) have had the layout settings changed. Unfortunately this is just part of the beta process as we improve and fix things. As the beta progresses things will get more stable!

Appreciate all the feedback too :smiling_face:
