What’s New: October 30, 2018

Posted on Oct 30, 2018

You can now set Default Styles in Context Menu, attach relevant files to the Contact Support form, and paste automatically into the Paragraph stencil.

New Features

  • Automatic Paragraph Stencils:
    If you use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl/Cmd + V to paste pure text directly onto the page – either from within the app or from an external source – Moqups will automatically paste the copied text in a new Paragraph stencil.
  • Set as Default Style in Context Menu:
    Now you can style an Object (or Connector), and then use the right-click Context Menu to set that customization as the Default Style for subsequent objects; it does not affect the style of objects that you’ve already added to the page. This makes it easy to customize a string of objects and/or connectors, and then quickly jump to a new default style, and so on.

Improvements

  • To help our Support Team effectively address your issue, you can now attach relevant files to the Contact Support form.
  • Custom Handles for the Process stencil now allow you to round the corners (adjust the border radius).
  • Snapping now works to the center of objects as well as to their edges, making it quicker and easier to align objects in staggered formations; this is especially useful with diagrams and flowcharts.
  • In Page Settings, you can now adjust the page size using numerical input with Expressions; numerical inputs also work in the Format Panel, letting you quickly adjust any object’s size, position and rotation.
  • The Fit page to content feature (accessed through the right-click Context Menu) now gives you the option of setting the spacing (padding) around your content.
  • Connectors remain attached to their objects, and in their correct positions, when you apply an Align operation to those objects (either from the right-click Context Menu or by using the buttons at the top of the Format Panel).

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed a bug that caused random errors when duplicating a selection of objects that included connectors.
