New Feature

Position text in tables
Now you can adjust the alignment of text in
tables.
When editing a table in Pitch, you'll see two new
additions to the Design tab in the right-hand
panel: Alignment and Vertical alignment. Click
on these options to adjust the positioning of all
text in table cells.

Improvement

Use ⌘ + K to hyperlink text
⌘ + K (or Ctrl + K on Windows) is a handy
command for pulling up our quick menu. But
those of us who write a lot ( ) are used to using
this shortcut to add a link to text.

👋

Now ⌘ + K does both! When selecting a speci c
bit of text, it will bring up the link toolbar so you
can create a hyperlink. In all other cases, it will
bring up the quick menu.

This is a link

Select text then press:

Bug Fixes

🔐 Public presentations stored in private folders will show the correct view.
Before, if you shared a public link to a presentation stored in a private folder,
members of your workspace would see the presentation in editor mode.
Because they (correctly) didn't have editing rights, the app would display
syncing errors. Now, if workspace members don't have edit rights, they will
see the same public access view non-workspace members see.

🙅 Opening a presentation you can't access will redirect to an error page.

Trying to open a presentation you didn't have access to, or one that had been
deleted, would result in a loading spinner that wouldn't resolve. Others have
affectionately dubbed this the In nispinner or The Spinning Wheel of Purple
Anticipation. Instead of a loading spinner, we'll now redirect you to a helpful
error page that explains the issue.

Bug Fixes

📋 Duplicated templates can be successfully published.

Previously, if you duplicated a template in your Templates folder and
published it to your workspace, you wouldn't be able to choose it from the
template picker. Now, all published templates will appear in the template
picker and be selectable.
