What's New in Slate

You're probably thinking "C'mon Slate, undo is *barely* a feature." But you'd be suprised just how convincing we can be through the use of graphics and clever word-play. Discover the magic that is Undo™ When you make a mistake or change your mind about a design decision, hit Ctrl+Z / Cmd+Z and revert to your previous edit. That's right, unlike life and fashion in the 80's, in Slate no mistake is irreversible; no error of judgement, irredemable. Just Ctrl+Z to go back in time and fix any mistake. Just one step back? No. Five? You're lowballing. Undo in Slate is Limitless, theoretically speaking. Now to the not so good news. There are many hundreds of potentially undoable things in Slate, so if you may notice something is not, uh, "undoing" – let us know and we'll be sure to add it.

Finally you can leverage the title and logo video sequences that your video teams have created in Slate. With Intros and Outros you can maintain consistency across your video Social content. Use Intro's as title screens and Outro's for animated logos, credits or calls-to-action. Many of our customers have been looking forward to putting Intro's and Outro's to use for Content Sponsorships – to ensure partnership content is always to spec and to brief. Like all assets in Slate Intro's and Outro's can be managed from Brandhub, assigned to Collections and used for content creation on both iOS and Web.

Cropping is a critical tool for content creation – and we're happy to say that it's finally available to all Creators on the Web. With our first iteration you're able to crop video and images using a variety of popular aspect ratios, with more options like custom manual cropping coming soon.

Timeline on iOS continues to get better with support for images. Now creators can include images and video to their posts, or create video content using only images. Images added to the timeline behave like video clips. You can change the duration of the image clip and use it in conjucntion with other Slate asset types like filters, sound and backgrounds

The Sprout Social integration marks a significant milestone as our very first Publishing integration. Sprout Premium customers can publish or schedule content directly from the Slate Web Editor to Sprout Social. Brand andministrators can also publish any content created across their team from the Content Hub. Support for publishing directly from iOS will be coming soon
