SharePoint: Improving the Page Authoring Experience

We are releasing new improvements to the Page authoring experience in SharePoint. These new improvements should help reduce clutter, increase productivity, and add more value for users when editing a page.

When this will happen:

  • Moving the “add section” action to be inline on canvas and visible on hover
  • Introducing a consolidated and enhanced Image web part toolbar
  • Adding new text overlay capabilities in the Image web part, such as the ability to change positions, text size and styling, text box color and opacity, and image overlay color and transparency.

What you need to do to prepare:
