Live Preview Integrated into Theme Editor for Real-Time Feedback
Significant progress was made in enhancing the theme editor experience today by introducing a fully integrated live preview panel. Users can now see the immediate impact of their theme customizations—including changes to colors and spacing—on rendered components like charts and tables, directly alongside the editor interface. A dedicated toggle was added to allow users to easily show or hide this preview panel to optimize screen real estate.
Several quality-of-life improvements were implemented to ensure accuracy and usability. The preview components were refined to precisely match the styling output found in final PDF reports, specifically by aligning table header appearance with expected PDF styles. Furthermore, the responsiveness of the preview panel was improved, ensuring a better experience across different screen sizes, including optimized layouts for mobile viewing.
Under the hood, attention was paid to performance and maintainability. We streamlined several internal style mappings to guarantee consistency between the web interface and the generated documents, avoiding unnecessary dependencies in the client bundle. These refinements ensure a smoother, more reliable visual feedback loop for our users.
