I am very pleased that this was considered and made its way into the environment (I'm sure I'm not the first one to have thought that we'd like this back in BC).
As you're well-aware, I'm sure, the Open in New Window feature isn't nearly as snappy as the method from the old RTC. Additionally, if you're on a list of records and you edit a record, that record should bounce to its own window, all on its own. Having the record open right on top of this list is intrusive, in our opinion. If there were a control that could enable or disable how an individual record opens, that would be great. Even if that's using extensions, and making that adjustment document by document, that's be a step in the right direction.
In addition to my general comment, overall I see on three levels space for improvement:
Level 1 - Building blocks and structure
- Ability to choose how many blocks a certain row can have
- Adjusting space between blocks (margin, border, background color)
- Create pre-defined blocks for helping less experienced Marketeers. + posibility to let customers add their own blocks to these pre-defined area. So common block can be used more often.
Creating most common pre-defined blocks:
- E-mail header
- Content 50/50
- Content 33/33/33
- Content 25/25/25/25
- Content full width
- Email footer
Level 2 - Adding and editing blocks
These most common blocks are used by marketeers:
- A custom HTML block (for experienced marketeers)
- Responsive IMG block
- Fixed IMG block
- CTA blocks
- Adjustable Content blocks*
*More info about Adjustable Content blocks
It would be nice to have adjustable content blocks with editable or 's within the blocks. This is useful to create beter content blocks. For instance a text block can be build up with three 's 1. A header, 2 paragraph text and 3 CTA button. But a content block can also build up by more 's e.g. 1 subheader, 2 header, 3 paragraph 4. CTA button. Despite of the needs of the marketeer he can add content to the blocks.
Level 3 - Overall styling options
- Adjusting text styles (p,h1,h2,h3 etc) - line-height, font-weight, font-size, text-decoration, font-family (font options: Google Font or a custom font & standard fonts: Arial, Helvetica etc.
- Adjusting CTA buttons (margin, padding, color, border, border radius)
- Adjusting the background, colors and border of blocks and body
- Option to hide a block on mobile (for more experienced users)
Hi,
We are encountering the same situation with one of our customer, and I could not agree more with the description of the 2 major issues the current standard behavior causes.
This is really difficult to explain to our customer the way it behaves and there is currently no easy workaround to manage !
Please consider this idea for the future releases
Thank you
