Editor

Meet our brand new Widget Bar with clearer look yet much enhanced functionality. Completely redesigned, this part of Readymag's Editor will take your work to a greater level of productivity. 

Besides creating a new panel for Widgets,

we made the Background panel bolder and easier to use,

we combined the Viewports and Page Height panels into one.

we updated the Grid & Guides with few useful adjustments,

If you'd like to learn more about the redesign of the Widget Bar, have a look at this case study, in which we elaborate on the challenges we’ve faced and the solutions we’ve found.

scalable
layout

Viewer

With a huge number of screen sizes existing today, variable desktop browser’s width adds to your design an uncertain amount of empty and often unused space. Readymag is thrilled to introduce a straightforward solution to this problem. With just one switcher the whole page layout, with all its contents, scales up to any ←browser width→. The bigger the browser window is, the bigger your layout gets. This is exactly what we do with the mobile layout. This time, we deliver the same principle for the desktop, ensuring consistent viewing experience across multiple desktop devices.
 

Check out Scalable Layout in the projects below: to see its effect change the size and proportions of your browser window. 

β

Note that Scalable Layout is not 
a default mode of the R/m viewer, 
but an option that you can turn on 
in the Project Settings.

Please keep in mind that this feature is in Beta mode. Therefore, some visual distortions may occur; expect near-pixel-perfect precision.

New web fonts

We are happy to announce our partnership with type.today. Six superb typefaces from their collection enriched our Font Library.

Graphik

Graphik was inspired by less common 20th century sans serifs that many European foundries released to compete with Futura and Helvetica. First drawn as the house style for Schwartzco Inc., it was further developed for Condé Nast Portfolio and later for Wallpaper* and T, the New York Times Style Magazine.
 
 

by Christian Schwartz, Commercial Type, and Ilya Ruderman

Austin

Austin was originally designed as headline type for Harper’s & Queen fashion magazine by Paul Barnes. The author himself describes the face as “a British Modern with the styling and sheen of New York in the 1970s.”
 

by Paul Barnes, Commercial Type, and Ilya Ruderman
 

Giorgio Sans

Giorgio Sans was created by Christian Schwartz for the New York Times’ style magazine. The distinguishing feature of the typeface is the extreme x-height and short extenders.

by Vincent Chan, Christian Schwartz, Commercial Type, and Ilya Ruderman

Kazimir

Kazimir blends various features of pre-revolutionary Russian typography with contemporary ideas of fashion, form and harmony. The face has slightly narrowed proportions, reminiscent of the rhythms of transitional serifs.

by CSTM Fonts, Yury Ostromentsky, Ilya Ruderman

Kazimir Text

Compared to Kazimir, Kazimir Text has a bit wider proportions, a bit lower contrast, and much wider codepage with extended language support.

by CSTM Fonts, Yury Ostromentsky, Ilya Ruderman

NWT Bodoni

This distinctive typeface is based on the letters as drawn in Manuale Tipografico, a book by punch-cutter and publisher Giambattista Bodoni. The typesetting is compact and even, as the designer of the face Elena Novoselova created it specifically for text sizes.
 
 

by Elena Novoselova

 All these typefaces are available in the Font Library and are ready to become part of your projects.

New Features

We kicked off 2016 by launching animations and throughout the year we were happy to see more and more projects taking advantage of this mighty feature. Today we’re adding even more power and flexibility to it.

1

triggers

Ever wanted to trigger an animation on a widget by clicking on another? This is now part of R/m animations. 

2

cycle
loop

In addition to the reverse loop we’ve added a cycle loop: it repeats an animation from the starting point.

3

change
steps

Sometimes you need to rearrange animation steps after you've created them. Now you can do this.

4

start when 
in view

Now you can choose to start an animation when the animated widget is scrolled into view.

bundle
drag

On long pages, dragging up and down a large group of widgets can be tedious: select, scroll, drag, deselect, select, and drag again. We’ve invented a way to do it faster. Hold V key while dragging a widget—this binds all widgets below, so you can drag them all at once.

shortcuts
at hand

While some actions in Readymag are just handy with shortcuts, others—like Bundle Drag—can be done with keyboard only. Discover easier and learn shortcuts with the help of this colorful infographic popup, which is always accessible from the Help Menu.

sticky
position

In addition to the left/right sticky position, now you can keep a widget stuck to the top or bottom edge of the browser, too. Fix a header and a footer regardless of the page format or the height.
