Product Updates: June 2023

It’s been another big month for product updates! Enhance your email design with advanced typography controls in Design Systems. Take control of your Call-To-Action buttons with precise alignment, font weight, letter spacing, and button padding adjustments. Simplify your workflow with the new ‘Code’ component, allowing you to insert custom code snippets directly into modules, preserving them at export. Achieve stunning visual effects with component-level border control, configuring width, style, and colour. Perfect your layouts with vertical alignment options for Side-By-Side modules. And last but not least… reduce email code size effortlessly with automatic file size minimisation.

Advanced Typography controls added to Design Systems

Is your brand using specific font weights like thin or extra bold? maybe even utilising increased letter spacing or margins top and bottom? Well, our pre-defined typography styles now let you set these and even more in your Design System, giving you full flexibility of your brand typography.

Advanced Call-To-Action controls added to Design Systems

Your Call-To-Action buttons are arguably the single most important element of your emails, and as such, we want to give you even more control to align these to your wider digital brand experience. As mentioned above, with typography styles, we have added letter spacing and full font weight control, along with giving you pixel-perfect control over your button padding.

Need to add custom code snippets to your emails?

We understand that some aspects of your emails are best kept in your sending platform, like centralised header blocks, footers, or snippets of reusable content blocks. But adding these in after export breaks your workflow and can be a pain to implement. To solve this, we have now added a new ‘Code’ component which allows you to insert any custom coding you wish into any module! With this, you can insert those content block snippets directly in MashrMail, and we will maintain this at export, ensuring your email is ready to go straight into your sending platform.

New cutting-edge feature… Component-level border control!

Does your brand utilise visual elements like strokes under headlines? Or maybe a border on the left of a pull quote? Well, this can now be easily controlled in MashrMail with the new component-level border control. Simply select your component, turn on borders and configure the width, style and colour, and you’re done!

Get your ducks in a row with new Vertical alignment

The MashrMail module library is extensive, with dozens of pre-built modules pre-branded with your brands’ style, including several of what we call Side-By-Side modules. These modules typically have an Image on the left and content on the right, and to give you even great control over your designs, we have now added vertical alignment controls to position your content top, middle or bottom in relation to the image.

Trim the fat with new automatic file size minimisation

Gmail’s code limit is a pain, right?! 104kbs is sometimes hard to keep your email code size under when you are using interactive modules, desktop and mobile-specific elements, or simply just have a lot of content! To help with this MashrMail now automatically minimise the code of your emails at export, removing any unneeded code and keeping your emails nice and trim!
