Backend - Performance improvement
Performance improvement on Loree interactive API call

Issues fixed in Loree editor
Source Format block issues fixed
Source Format block (Copy & Paste) had issues like,
When the header is copied and pasted then it will create a new block instead of in the same header. This issue is fixed now, the copy-paste of the header won’t create a new block.
Copy-paste content from an external site like lorem ipsum, the styles not working as expected when trying to apply for the whole block. This issue is now resolved, user can apply styles for the whole block.
While trying to copy and paste a ‘P' tag inside a 'P’ tag then it should strip-out all the styles and should paste the plain text, this is working as expected and the issue is resolved.
When the user copied the text from an external source and pasting it and applying background color for the row, it doesn’t apply the same background for the text, this issue is now resolved in the Loree editor.
While copy-paste source from the external source it's not manipulating properly
It's adding some space on the right
When it comes to the table then it exceeds the current size and the font color was not black after copy and pasted into the editor
These issues are fixed in the Loree 2.0 editor now.
Unable to clear existing content once saved with Accessibility Checker
As a user, when I am trying to edit existing contents from canvas within Loree editor I can fetch the content. When I validate this page from the accessibility checker, It removes the unwanted styles which are stripped out from the CK editor. The issue is, when I save the content from the Accessibility checker and clear the editor, it doesn't clear the content.
This issue is now resolved and clearing existing canvas content even after checking & saving accessibility is possible and working fine.
Delete interactive issue in My interactive page
When the user deletes the component in the interactive page, the rest of the component serial number is not in order, and When the user deletes the component, the deleted component still available on the page. Both the issues are resolved now in the Loree editor.
Support for keyboard shortcuts (Bold & Italic)
Supporting bold and italic keyboard shortcuts inside the Loree editor was an issue before, Now it is possible to change the text bold and italic with the keyboard shortcuts itself.
Glitch issues and editor content issues
When the user tries to edit the existing content from the canvas page inside the Loree 2.0 editor, faced editor issues. Now, this has been resolved and won’t reflect any glitches or editor content issues.
List issues fix
Styles were removed and not proper when adding a list of items inside <h6> tag, inside <p> tag and selecting the overall and apply the style, then the particular word which has different style is not applying the style. These issues are fixed now and styles will be applied properly.
Header font size not updating on the editor
When the user edits the headers using Loree editor and while changing the header font-size from the text-options, it doesn’t change the size as expected. This issue is now fixed and working as expected in the Loree editor.
Container Block issues fix
Issues like when adding rows inside a container, collapse the design section when the row section is in the open state, Once we remove all the padding inside the container then we can’t able to access the containers design section, We will need a hamburger icon like rows and column to access that, Background color not applied for container block, No option to set margin for the container, When I copy the container and paste it in the column, it's not pasted as expected. These issues are addressed and fixed now in this release of Loree 2.0.
Open sans Font not displayed on the editor
When the open sans font enabled via the Loree admin dashboard, it’s not reflecting in the Loree editor. This issue is fixed and now the open sans font will be working as expected.
Issues fixed while fetching the existing content from Canvas
Issues like applied CSS for the canvas content were not properly fetched inside the Loree editor. This issue is fixed now and working as expected in the Loree 2.0 editor.
Wrap and make the content as responsive within an element section
When the user creating a list item and increasing the font-size it overlapping the elements and the list element exceeding the section. As expected, the List bullets and List content is responsive and it is placed inside the element section, When the longest character words are added by the user, the word should automatically wrap inside the element now.
