and overall user experience in pdf templates dynamic auto resize support for 2d product previews dynamic auto resize support has been introduced for 2d product previews, allowing preview designs to automatically scale according to the selected product dimensions earlier, previews were displayed within a fixed area, which could result in inaccurate visualization when customers selected different

automatically applied to the respective gltf model materials, delivering a more interactive and realistic 3d preview experience color name support for color picker designer studio color picker
