AVADA 6.0 INTRODUCES
No-Scroll
Controls
Avada 6.0 and Fusion Builder now include a “mission control” toolbar that stays wherever you are within your builder experience, meaning no scrolling to access the page save, no scrolling to access builder preferences, the responsive view controls and much much more. This is a huge new feature and a massive quality of life changed designed to give you full access to what you need, when you need it, reducing the time it takes to produce beautiful pages effectively.
EVERYTHING YOU NEED IN ONE PLACE
All-Encompassed
Builder Options
Never before have you been able to access Fusion Theme Options without leaving the page builder, nor have you been able to access the Fusion Page Options without scrolling right down to the bottom of the builder. Well, now you can. The Theme Options, Page Options, Element Options and Element Editing Dialogue (If you so choose) are all docked to the left (or right, whatever you decide!) of your builder and follow you everywhere you go.
EXTREMELY COMPREHENSIVE
Inline Text
Editing
No more opening up an element editing dialogue to amend and style your text. Be it a Title Element, Text Block, Checklist, and many more. Our inline text editor feature allows you to amend the full range of typography options (font family, size, subset, line height, letter spacing), color, weight, style, inline links, alignment, lists, inline elements such as tooltips, modal text links and much more.
ENHANCED BEYOND MEASURE
Element
Editing Dialogue
You can now see the changes you make to the elements you add to your website in real time with the element editing dialogue. Choose to have this floating in your builder window or dock to the left or right as a part of the Advanced Options Network sidebar, the flexibility is yours.
ENTIRELY NEW TO FUSION BUILDER
Builder
Preferences
Never before in Fusion Builder have we bundled a baked-in set of builder preferences to give you more control over how you want to setup Fusion Builder to best suit your page building experience. Includes features such as the position of the sidebar panel, enable or disable keyboard shortcuts and much more.
BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE
Keyboard Shortcuts
For Faster Editing
Are you a fan of using keyboard shortcuts in your page building workflow? Superb, then we have just the thing for you. The Fusion Builder Live Editor has optional configurable keyboard shortcuts to help you build faster and more accurately than before.
CHECK WITHOUT LEAVING THE BUILDER
Fully Responsive
Builder Mode
Are you tired of having to check your website for responsive accuracy across a range of devices? Maybe you’re tired of resizing your browser windows to make all of your accurate checks before deploying a website? Our new responsive builder modes will leave you feeling energised and confident that your page builds are extremely accurate, all without leaving Fusion Builder and using any other devices.
HELP WHEN YOU NEED IT
Quick Access
Documentation
Need to check our extensive and comprehensive documentation for an element setting? No more scouring our support section or leaving the builder to find what you’re looking for. Baked into each Fusion Builder Element is an option to view the Documentation for that specific element, without having to search.
NOT QUITE OUT WITH THE OLD
Utilize The Backend
Builder in the Frontend
We understand that there are many that still favour back-end page building, or want to be able to bridge the gap between front-end and back-end without being exclusive to either. This is why we have built in ‘Wireframe’ mode, which gives you the ability to utilise the Fusion Builder backend interface without leaving the builder.
AVADA 6.0 & GUTENBERG
Gutenberg Block
Styling Support
Avada now fully supports both the front-end and backend styling of Gutenberg Blocks, with added font size support to match Avada Theme Options. This is an ongoing effort to integrate Avada with the Gutenberg editor further to harmonize them moving forward.
MORE INTUITIVE THAN EVER
Nested Column
Editor
Our nested column interface has never been so clean. We have designed and engineered a brand new interface to make nested column editing much more visual, much faster, more accurate and a incredibly user friendly.
IN TRUE AVADA FASHION
Your Brand New
Classic Demo
We have overhauled the Classic Demo and breathed some life into it, completely re-aligning its appearance to be more fitting and modern, utilising a wider range of Fusion Builder Elements and tuning it up to be fully compatible with the Frontend Builder experience.
