  • Redesigned the Icons tab with picture management, drawing tools, icon size controls and smarter icon suggestions.

  • Improved keyboard navigation throughout the right panel, including tabs, icons, sliders and the colour wheel.
  • Enhanced keyboard navigation in filter menus, including access to footer actions and settings.
