# Changelog - November, 2025

## New Features

Email UI/UX

### Gradient Colors & Hover Styles

**The editor now supports color gradients and hover styles natively.** Editor users can create gradient backgrounds, set their appearance and direction, and define how buttons respond on hover, all without custom HTML. The tools sit in the interface, so changes render instantly.

Gradients and hover effects draw attention to key elements and give designers more control over brand style, without dropping into raw HTML.

The feature is on automatically; no setup is needed. For a walkthrough, see the [documentation](https://support.topol.io/en/articles/12918364-color-gradient-and-hover-style).

Email Config UI/UX

### Control Panel Visibility Options

**New options hide the editor's side control panel by default and show it only when needed.** This suits layout-locked templates where users mainly edit text and rarely touch structural tools.

With strict template layouts, hiding the control panel makes the canvas the main workspace and keeps content editing focused. Teams can still show the panel temporarily for detailed layout work.

Two settings manage panel visibility: `hideControlPanel` and `showControlPanelExpand`. The first sets the panel's default visibility; the second turns on the built-in toggle button for switching visibility during editing.

For full details, see the [documentation](https://docs.topol.io/email-editor/guide/control-panel-settings.html#control-panel-visibility).

## Improvements

Email UI/UX

### Unified URL Auto-Prefixing

Button, Social, and Video blocks now add the `http://` protocol to URLs missing one, matching Image and GIF blocks and preventing malformed links.

Email UI/UX

### Expanded Merge Tag Autocomplete List

The Merge Tag autocomplete dropdown now scrolls, reaching all matching tags instead of stopping at the first 10 results, which keeps it usable for large Merge Tag sets. Suggestions now require typing the opening syntax and the first letter of the tag.

Email Config

### Configurable Default for "Stack Columns on Mobile" Switch

The `defaultTemplateSettings` option now controls the default state of the Stack columns on mobile switch. A new `stack-columns` option sets the initial value to false (disabled) instead of the previous always-enabled default.

Full details in the [documentation](https://docs.topol.io/email-editor/guide/default-settings.html#stack-columns-on-mobile).

Email Config

### Autosuggestions for Variant Condition Values

Variant conditions now support predefined autosuggested values for the custom input. Typing a comparison value shows suggestions from the selected Merge Tag's suggestions array, making conditions faster to configure and less prone to typos.

For full details, see the [documentation](https://docs.topol.io/email-editor/guide/conditional-content.html#conditional-syntax).

## Bugfixes

-   Email Fixed an issue where background images from File Manager were incorrectly encoded when the userId contained spaces, breaking the image URL.
-   Email Fixed an issue where a column's border failed to follow its configured border radius.
-   Email Corrected errors in the Turkish translation.
