Updates

Bluescape now allows workspace editors to edit anyone’s link, including link expiry date and password reset, without generating an updated link for the user.
To access this functionality:
- Select the
(Share) icon. - Under Public Sharing, next to Anyone with the link, select the
(Manage) icon.
Note: If you do not have a sharable link previously configured, the Manage link appears as a
(Set up) icon. - The Anyone with the link screen appears. Click the
(edit) icon. - Make any changes required to the Expiration Date and select Save.
Notable Workspace Improvements

When a user selects multiple shapes simultaneously, regardless of color, the user can now modify the opacity of the background and border colors using the color picker.
