We are pleased to announce our 2nd patch for Xibo CMS v2.0. The codename for this series is “Swift”.
Thank you to everyone who has moved to version 2 of Xibo and for providing such valuable feedback on our new Layout Designer & Playlist Editor. We have taken your comments onboard and have made some small adjustments in this patch in response, with 20 issues solved.
The main change in this patch is to bring back the overall Layout preview in the new Layout Designer.
We have also made adjustments to improve the flow of actions in the editor, making it easier to understand where you are and what you have selected. We have also moved the Region Options form over to the Layout Navigator for ease of use.
