DesignNBuy Releases Design Tool 2.0: A Streamlined and Powerful Design Experience

Design Tool 2.0

DesignNBuy, a leading provider of web to print solutions, is thrilled to announce the launch of Design Tool 2.0, a significant update packed with new features and enhancements designed to empower users and streamline the design process.

Enhanced User Experience

  • Seamless Font Selection: No more waiting! Design Tool 2.0 automatically applies a default font if your chosen font is unavailable, eliminating loading delays and frustration.

  • Layer Management Made Easy: Layers are now conveniently located at the bottom of the canvas alongside other control options, allowing for effortless access and management. A mouse hover over a layer from the list will now highlight the corresponding element on the canvas, saving you time and effort. Image and clipart layers will also display thumbnails for easy identification.

  • Template Discovery at a Glance: Browse templates with ease! We’ve introduced category thumbnails and horizontal scrolling, giving you a clear overview of available options. Now you can directly choose a template by clicking on its thumbnail.

  • Supercharged Search: Finding what you need is now faster than ever. The improved search functionality works across design tool modules, allowing you to search by Name, Tags, and Category.

  • Effortless Artwork Exploration: Artwork listings have been revamped! Category thumbnails and artwork counts provide a clear visual representation, helping you locate the perfect artwork for your project.

  • Stepper for Input Boxes: Say goodbye to manual data entry! Design Tool V2.0 introduces steppers for input boxes, allowing you to effortlessly adjust values with a simple click.

  • Centralized Text Editing: The all-new edit text section empowers you to modify all text elements within your design from a single location. Text element types are now easily identifiable by their corresponding icons in the text panel.

  • Margin Management at Your Fingertips: We’ve introduced margin colors for better visibility during the printing process. Additionally, the margin navigation bar has been relocated to the bottom of the canvas for a more intuitive workflow.

  • Organized Layout Categories: Horizontal scrolling and a “View All” option provide a user-friendly way to navigate layout categories. Listings are now grouped by category name for better organization.

Convenience and Efficiency

Convenience and Efficiency
  • “My Designs” as a Popup: The “My Designs” section now opens as a popup within the design tool, eliminating the need to switch tabs. You can now manage all your designs (edit, delete, rename) without leaving your current project. 

  • Enhanced Image Cropping and Color Detection: Experience improved image cropping features and color detection. You can now pick colors directly from your design and use them later. Additionally, adjust brightness, contrast, and blur (for RGB color mode only) to achieve the perfect look. 

  • Ready-Made Frames: Make images look better with minimal effort! Design Tool 2.0 offers a collection of ready-made frames for all shapes, allowing you to directly apply them to your images on the canvas. 

  • Customizable Page Names: Give your pages a unique identity! You can now change page names, and these names will be reflected in the output file (if the output mode is selected for each PDF in the production profile).

Quick Editor Enhancements

Quick Editor Enhancements
  • Element Highlighting on Hover: Hover over an element in the left navigation panel, and its corresponding icon will be displayed on the canvas for easy identification.

  • Canvas Zoom: Zoom in and out of the canvas for a more precise and detailed design experience.

  • Brand Kit Integration: Access brand kit directly within the form editor, allowing you to work seamlessly with your brand guidelines.

  • Element Snapping (Configurable): This feature (requires admin configuration) ensures that when you delete a text line, the subsequent line automatically moves up to fill the gap.
