I've been using the new interface every day since it was released. I know change can be a bit challenging, but even with that consideration I HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE the disappearing/reappearing floating toolbar. For the love of logic, just put the tool bar back, attached, to the top of the workspace. The new version is distracting and takes more work, more steps and more time to access the options. I get that they felt like it was time to modernise the workspace but why do it at the expense of logical workflow? The right panel thing makes it harder too. Yes the left panel used to get irritating sometimes when it opened at inopportune times, but that's all they needed to fix. At least we had access to everything in the arc from the top toolbar down through the left panels. Now it's like a game of digital tennis going from left to right to needing to select something to get access to 'position' in the now-you-see-it-now-you-don't tool bar. The introduction of layers in Canva was the turning point to making it a 'real' design platform, now they make it harder to use them. I also don't know how they got the 'white' background past accessibility checks either. The workspace background is also paler than before making it harder to distinguish where the edge of the page is. Harder on the eyes as well. It's all looking a lot more like Adobe Express now which I think is an odd thing to try and copy, especially when you copy it badly. So yeah, I guess I'm super disappointed that 'progress' throws usability out the window.
Yes I'm still waiting for the refreshed look. But I have to say for some reason ever since Canva Create I've been getting far more error messages on Canva than ever before. Like oops we've got a problem on our end. Try refreshing or coming back later .. This has disrupted my workflow a lot, as I haven't even been able to access my designs to continue working on them. I wonder if the rollout is causing issues.
Hi Lia, yes, most probably it is causing these errors. It's not an easy task to switch to a different/refreshed interface. That's why they rolled it out to a small batch first, to fix the issues before deploying it to everyone. Patience, I guess 😬
@@TeamRonDi The site formatting is different. The assets/categories are not easily found. I have been a pro-subscriber for a long while and have many folders. I seem to spend more time hunting than actually creating. Thanks for asking.
I was so excited for the Courses until I realised it was only meant for your team. I'm hoping they release this as a full design product which you can embed and share into your website to make them public.
I was part of the 1st one million. More clicks to do the same things and the new tool bar that floats is in the way when trying to edit. One example of having to use extra clicks. Lots of great new features, but imo. Less user friendly in several ways.
Hopefully they are updating or releasing new upgrades to the website options. There is A LOT of negative videos out there about what the Canva website can't do....I hope the October release can change that. I hope they make it more competative with Wordpress.
If you are talking about the Zooms and Blur effects we use in our videos, those are made with Premiere Pro by our video editors. We can't do that with Canva at the moment. Though they have the blur effect for both photos and videos.
The Affinity suite is pretty similar to Adobe's Photoshop, Illustrator, ... yes. It's a separate product from Canva, so you'll need to purchase a one-time license for Affinity.
Hello. I would like to know where to submit or get some updates or if it exists, ideas for Canva. Like, how can I know the exact size of an image on my work so i could change it and have the new one in the same size. Or how to right click and replace the image with a new one ... just like PowerPoint do i think.
Hi there, your first Q about the image dimensions: unfortunately, this feature does not exist yet. That'd be a good one, though. You can probably get in touch with Canva via their Help center and let them know you are interested in that feature. Your second Q: swap an image in one click ... if you drag and drop an image on top of another one, it will replace it. It will even give the second image the effects, corrections, ... of the first one.
I can see how adobe express links with adobe illustrator and photoshop as a way affininity and Canva can co exist to make it efficient for creatives and marketers. If affinity stays as a one off I’m really going to consider making the switch.
I have been an Affinity user for several years and love the program. Like others, I was concerned about whether it would remain as a separate entity but it sounds like it will. I have used Canva in the past and feel it is a remarkable program and it can be a good marriage with Affinity. But, I am very concerned about the licensing of Canva and whether it will spill over into Affinity? Also, can the public see the creations I make in Canva or is there a way to make them private?
Affinity is great tool for publishing publications. I wish Canva made available fir all pro users. About time Canva make more business templates for solopreneurs and small business owners. Please make sure they get this.
You're right, they changed that link after I had shot the video, here's the correct one (we also updated the description of our video with the right link): events.canva.com/edunfpwaitlist
I'm hearing a lot of grumbling from some of the 1 million that the new UI isn't helpful and in fact, ends up taking way more clicks to do things than it used to. I hope Canva is listening to the comments being sent in.

Excellent recap. Thank you. I love the affinity update. It’s great to know it’s offered for non-profits.
Thank you dear
🔥🔥🔥

I am struggling with this update. 😢
In what sense?
@@TeamRonDi The site formatting is different. The assets/categories are not easily found.

Same here!
I love that they did Canva Create here in the States! I hope they eventually make a visit to Miami so I can attend.
Maybe the next one 🤓
@@TeamRonDi ❤️

Thanks for sharing your opinion, Tiffany 🙏
Completely agree!
So true. That's not good. I had to switch my glow up off to work smoothly!
Thank you. 😊
You're welcome 😊
This is so helpful 🎉thank you
My pleasure ✨
Hopefully they are updating or releasing new upgrades to the website options. There is A LOT of negative videos out there about what the Canva website can't do....I hope the October release can change that. I hope they make it more competative with Wordpress.
I hope so too!
Canva websites have a lot of potential but are, indeed, still quite limited.
Let's see what the future holds for us 🔮✨
Thank you! I can't get one thing. How can we add real life countdown timer on website?
Maybe search under the videos?
Otherwise, I don’t think you can do that with Canva as of now.
Thank yoooou
You’re welcome dear
I have not linked this new canva layout
Outstanding!
Glad you like it!
As a canva premium user do we get free affinity suite?
No, the Affinity suite is a separate product. It’s a lifetime subscription.
Need help . How can I see the result of a font without having to click on it.. Why doesn't hover over the font show the result. Please update
Amazing Video
Glad you enjoyed it 💜
I can't find the option to change all when I make a change to my text or fonts. Where can I find that or did they get rid of it?
Yes, several people have mentioned that to us too.
Maybe it'll come back. We'll keep an 👀 on that!
have another question, how can u zoom and blur background and return again to the original page 🙏?
If you are talking about the Zooms and Blur effects we use in our videos, those are made with Premiere Pro by our video editors. We can't do that with Canva at the moment. Though they have the blur effect for both photos and videos.
With the help of Affinity, does it mean we'll have Adobe like editing, creating, designing in CANVA?
The Affinity suite is pretty similar to Adobe's Photoshop, Illustrator, ... yes.
It's a separate product from Canva, so you'll need to purchase a one-time license for Affinity.

First Question.
1. Select the image
2. click position on the top bar
3. You should see the dimensions of the image somewhere in the X and Y box
They seem to be going for Atlassians market too ( another great Australian company )
With what services?

Canva communicated to hat it would not change the one-time lifetime license system of Affinity.
And no, your designs are not public.
I am a bit late and i am not able to get canva create its showing early access is closed what should i do😢
Wait 😬
I own a cafe. How do I gear up canva to show me only cafe/coffee/hospitality based content only???
You’ll have to run searches for that.
@teamRonDi
Thank you!
BTW, Can you please teach us how to create the Elements and how to save them. Thanks
You are welcome!
Do you mean creating graphic elements and import them to Canva?
@TeamRonDi Both
1. how to create our own elements
2. so we can use it for our canva elements.
Affinity is great tool for publishing publications. I wish Canva made available fir all pro users. About time Canva make more business templates for solopreneurs and small business owners. Please make sure they get this.
I’ll pass it on to them 😊
17:58 I hope Canva start to learn about accessibility 🤦♂️ “here” as a hyperlink ❌ 3 of the same hyperlinks going to different pages❌❌
You're right, they changed that link after I had shot the video, here's the correct one (we also updated the description of our video with the right link): events.canva.com/edunfpwaitlist
When is Canva adding gradient text….and I don’t mean the “apps”.
I'm not sure if this is on their roadmap, have you tried Typegradient (yes the app)?
It gets the job done imo 🤔
Type gradient have few fonts maybe we xan upload own fonts
I'm hearing a lot of grumbling from some of the 1 million that the new UI isn't helpful and in fact, ends up taking way more clicks to do things than it used to. I hope Canva is listening to the comments being sent in.
That's also why they have limited this initial roll-out to (only) 1M users. To gather feedback and troubleshoot.
Yes, I agree. So many extra clicks. I end up getting frustrated after a while.
Thanks for these updates. Yeah I’m a one woman show and most of this, with the exception of Affinity, isn’t very useful.
Like I said, their focus is on Teams and organizations 😬
@@TeamRonDi yep I still watched though 😂❤️
Thank you!
You're welcome Roman!
