v2.88.24 September 2026

Smarter AI editing and hands-on charts

AI edits now apply directly with clear restore points, while charts gain deeper editing controls, spreadsheet data entry and richer formatting. AI-generated slides follow your templates and brand more closely, and tables and alignment tools are faster to work with.

Highlights

Direct AI edits
AI changes land straight in your deck and are marked with an AI badge. A Before AI edit restore point makes it easy to return to your earlier version.
Hands-on chart editing
Build more chart types, paste data from spreadsheets, adjust axes and labels, and control details such as bar gaps, legends and waterfall colours.
Template-aware AI slides
AI-generated ceremony slides now follow the designs you create in the template editor, including agenda rows, dividers and disclaimers.
Faster table workflows
Select, move, copy and resize whole table rows and columns with new keyboard shortcuts and track controls.
