v2.100.421 September 2026
A sharper editor and smarter sharing
This release makes Riplo faster to work in, with a rebuilt insert experience, stronger keyboard control, richer charts and more capable diagrams. Sharing now supports live and snapshot links, while AI can help carry branding across an entire deck.
Highlights
More flexible sharing
Create a live link that stays current or snapshot links fixed to a chosen saved version. Shared decks open in a focused viewer with presentation and copy options.
A faster editor
Draw elements directly onto slides, format multiple objects faster, and use clearer keyboard shortcuts for alignment, insertion and editing.
Charts grow up
Build combination charts, import larger datasets, edit chart data like a spreadsheet and use a second value axis when your data needs one.
AI branding improvements
Ask AI to update your deck branding in one pass, including themes, logos and decorative template panels.

UI
25editor

Bug fix
