Summer and vacations are here, and July is a perfect time to celebrate! When we think of July, we think of fireworks, BBQs, warm summer evenings, family get-togethers, and picnics.
We’ve been hard at work on some fireworks-worthy updates of our own! We’ve added a ton of new and updated functionality to enhance your Bluescape experience. How are you going to use these new features? We’d love to hear your feedback below. Press the 
button at the bottom and let us know what you think! 
Features
Popsync Feature in Bluescape 
You can now save time finding high-quality images by searching multiple image sources simultaneously using Bluescape’s new image search feature called Popsync.
- Users can now search for images using the Popsync search field. Results are now laid out and organized within the Bluescape workspace
- Images from your search are organized in canvases based on the image source
- Users are able to select which image sources to choose from
- Users that search from Popsync.io have the Popsync search results added to a draft workspace
- When a user chooses to save or share their workspace, they receive a prompt to enter their email address
- The user then receives an email with a prompt to register or sign on to Bluescape
- After the sign-up/sign-on process is complete, users can claim their workspace
- The Popsync search icon adds to the Workspace Toolbar, making Popsync available to existing Bluescape users
Laser Pointer 
In the July release, we’ve added a laser pointer to your workspace that gives you the ability to use temporary, ephemeral strokes in the workspace to enhance audience focus during presentations. Collaborator laser pointer strokes are also available. During presentations, the workspace leader can disable this feature for collaborators.

Personal Meeting Room URL 
Editable personal URLs are now available! A one-time popup appears for existing users, allowing them to select their URL. New Bluescape members have the ability to create a personal meeting room name during the sign-up process. Existing Bluescape members may claim their reserved personal meeting room name or select one.
Anyone can join the Personalized Meeting Room URL with a link. The URL is formatted as follows:
bluescape.io/[your personal meeting room url]
Bluescape members who reserved their personal URL may claim ownership at login:
If you are a Bluescape member and did not reserve a Personal URL or you wish to edit your Personal Meeting Room:
- Go to My Bluescape Home.
- Select Profile. The Personal preferences screen appears.
- Enter your new Personal Meeting Room ID.
- Press Save changes.
Note: This update does not impact meetings already on your schedule.

- Open the Configuration Center.
- Select the Users tab. The Licensed user summary appears.

Notable Improvements 
Easily add connectors to objects 
We’ve enhanced the way that connectors work. Now, you can easily duplicate connecting objects by selecting the blue dot above an object, and you can easily connect existing shapes by dragging your cursor from one object to another:
Connect to a canvas using web connector lines 
Previously, you were unable to connect to a canvas using connector lines. This functionality is now present with the July 2022 release.

Updated pan tool experience 
We’ve also augmented the Pan tool experience. The Pan tool and the new Select tool now appear in the toolbar at the left of the page for ease of use. If you have the select tool enabled, and you right-select and hold in your workspace, the pan tool is temporarily enabled.
