New Flexbox containers will give you much better structure and flexibility to the content you’re crafting.

And if you’re wondering what’s happening with the old TP Row — you can now convert it into a Flexbox container using our 1-click row to container converter!

2) Magic Scroll Animation Block

With our new Magic Scroll, you can now animate content with 10+ animation parameters! Say goodbye to long boring scrolls!

3) Global Tooltips

It’s time to end UI cluttering for just some extra info once and for all! ✊

With our new Global Tooltips, you can add text, image, or video as a tooltip on any Gutenberg block!

4) Interactive Data Circle

When we say data, you probably think of numbers and letters in plain text.

Well, data can be presented in beautiful and creative ways! Our Interactive circle will most certainly transfer the message you’re trying to send!

5) Global Floating Effects

Brand new animations for your Gutenberg blocks — Pulse, Float, Toss and Rotate! 

6) Advanced Typography 

Typography plays a huge role in web design but also in brand identity. With our Advanced typography, creating creative text layouts and exploring dozens of possibilities will definitely come in handy, regardless of what type of design you’re working on!

7) Global Equal Height

How many times have you tried to make the length of content even? And just when you succeed, you switch to mobile view, and nothing works?

Well, no more!

Global Equal Height will take care of this for you regardless of how much content you have! Make the info boxes, process steps, icon boxes, and other stuff equal in length!

8.) Advanced Border Radius

Predefined borders can turn out to be monotonous. Why not make your own borders?

With Advanced Border Radius, you can create complex custom-shaped border based on 8 parameters! 

How cool is that?!

9) Updated Heading Block

Our Heading block has been updated with new letter-by-letter animations. Much more to play with now!

10) Grid Design Layout Tool

Still using the scale on your screen to align your element? Well, that’s about to end.

Our Grid Layout tool will help immensely in aligning design perfectly with almost no effort!

11) New Metro layout for Listing

Our new Metro Layout is for blog posts, WooCommerce Products, Dynamic post listings, and media files! Let us know how you like it!

12.) On-demand Asset Delivery Method

Last but not the least, we have a new form of asset delivery method, which can be used if you have a complex cache system, and you’re facing frontend and backend design issues

…and much, MUCH more! We made numerous improvements and bug fixes to make sure the plugin is smooth but if you stumble upon one, let us know and we’re going to fix it ASAP!

Even though v1.4.0 is the ultimate solution for expanding the possibilities of Gutenberg, our development team keeps building more amazing stuff. In just a week or two, we’re launching another update where you will get an additional block where Apple AirPods scroll will be easier in sequence! 

It’s been a heck of a ride since we started, but your support is what fuels us to be the best in the industry.

We will keep building more features that we’re sure you’ll most certainly like, and we will keep improving the existing ones.

Install the new update and let us know how you like new features and improvements!

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts!
