We have been very busy over the summer preparing the next update of Blocs for Mac, which has a great mix of new features that will make building websites faster and easier.
In the past we usually share our feature teaser drops on our social media channels, but starting with Blocs for Mac 6.3, we will be sharing them directly here in the forum as well.
Feature 1
This one is small but useful! Weโve added a brand new short-code that displays the current year and automatically updates without having to re-upload your website. Perfect for copyright notices.
Feature 2
Setting the description alt tag for images is essential for better accessibility, but this task can be very time consuming.
In Blocs for #Mac 6.3 you can now set the alt description for an image once in the Asset Manager and update all instances of that image across your entire website instantly.
You can also still override the global image description and set a custom description if you need to as well.
Would also like to see the asset panel retain my last settings.
Every day I have to change the default setting to โName Ascendingโ and resize my asset group list so I have three column view in the main manager window.
We are always making improvements to the productivity features of Blocs.
In Blocs for #Mac 6.3 we have made various improvements to the Find and Replace feature as well as adding support for replacing text across an entire site.
