Changelog

⏱️ Reset Timer in Presenter View

You can now reset the elapsed time in the presenter view with a single click. This is useful when you want to restart your timing, for example after a break or when rehearsing a specific section of your presentation.

📁 Duplicate Folders Recursively

You can now duplicate entire folders along with all their contents recursively. This makes it easier to create copies of complex folder structures without having to manually recreate the hierarchy.

Simply click on the action menu of any folder and select “Duplicate” to create a complete copy including all nested folders and items.

🔗 Unlink Elements

In snappify, elements are automatically linked to each other when you duplicate them. This is done to ensure that the elements transition smoothly when they are duplicated.

However, sometimes you may want to unlink an element from its instances on other Slides. For this we now introduced a new button on the Animation tab of the right toolbar:

🕒 Elapsed Time in Presenter View

The elapsed time is now displayed in the presenter view so that you can see how much time has passed during a presentation.

🤩 Text Animations

It’s now possible to animate text changes with different animation types like a Typewriter effect, SlideIn animations or Morphing changes.

Additionally it’s also possible to animate the text line-by-line on click during a presentation, so you don’t have to create several Slides for e.g. showing bullet-point lists line-by-line.

✨ Improved Code Morphing

The change detection algorithm which is used to morph code changes has been improved. This will lead to more consistent and better looking code morphs as it now detects similarities better.

We also published a new template which you can copy to see how to leverage the code morphin animation.

🎛️ Slide Change Trigger

There’s a new feature to give you more control over your presentations! 🚀

It gives you the opportunity to let Slides automatically advance to the next Slide after all animations have finished playing and the Slide Duration has elapsed.

🔀 Bulk-edit Animation Triggers

It’s now possible to bulk-edit animation triggers for multiple elements simultaneously.

On the left toolbar, when you’re in the “Animation” Tab, select multiple elements and open the context-menu via right-click, in order to change the Animation Trigger for all selected elements.

📋 Copy Elements as Image

We’ve added a new context menu option that allows you to quickly copy elements as image to your clipboard!

Now you can easily:

• Right-click on any element(s) in your snap
• Select “Copy / Paste as” > “Copy as Image” from the context menu
• Paste the image directly into other applications

This feature is perfect for quickly sharing specific parts of your snaps without exporting the entire image.

🤖 Code Highlights via API
