Before you start creating your content, see below what the various menu items and tools are used for.
1. Design/Localization selection
Here you can toggle between Design, which is your overall layout, and Localization, which lets you customize your template or design to your different marketing groups.
2. Autosave
As long as your internet connection is stable, any changes you do to your design will be automatically saved.
3. Undo and Redo
Click the left-pointing arrow to undo, and the right-pointing error to redo recent changes to your design.
4. Desktop and mobile view
Switch between views to see what your design will look like in desktop vs. mobile view. We recommend you to always design in the mobile view, as most customers open marketing sendouts on their smartphones. In addition, the design is easier to translate from mobile view to desktop than vice versa. Read more about mobile and desktop styling.
5. Preview
Select this to view dynamic content like contact fields or products. Use the settings cog to select a contact. Read more about dynamic and personalized content.
6. Preview as a contact
Preview the design as a specific contact (see 5. Preview). Once you have selected to preview with data, you will select a contact here.
7. Send test message
Click here to send a test message to up to 5 recipients.
8. Publish
Click here to publish your design. The most recently published version will be sent out when scheduled. This means that if you edit an active design, the last published version will continue to be sent until you publish your new changes. Read more about publishing your email (if you are making an email design).
9. Close Design Studio
Click here to close the design studio and return to the page you entered from. You do not need to save your changes before exiting, as they are autosaved (see 2. Autosave), unless you want to publish your design (see 8. Publish).
10. Sender details and subject line
This tab has been removed and Sender details can now be found under the overview tab (11) and in the canvas (14).

Once you start adding content, all elements and modules will show up here in list form for easy navigation.

This is your working area, which you will drag and drop your modules and elements onto to create your design.
