Add Grid, Guides & Snap-to (Alignment Helpers) in GemPages v7 Editor

Please add a proper visual alignment system to the GemPages v7 editor: grid overlay, guides/rulers, and snap-to alignment (edges/center/spacing). This would make layout building faster and more precise—especially for modern UX/UI, landing pages, and consistent spacing across sections. Problem / Why it matters: Right now, aligning elements and keeping consistent spacing often requires manual tweaking and repeated “eye-balling.” On complex pages (multi-column rows, cards, headings + CTAs), it’s easy to end up with small misalignments that hurt visual quality and perceived trust. Requested features: Grid Overlay Toggle on/off grid overlay on canvas Configurable grid (e.g., 4/8/12 columns, spacing units) Optional: baseline grid for typography rhythm Rulers + Guides Top/left rulers (optional) Drag-and-drop guides from rulers Ability to lock/unlock and clear guides Snap-to / “Sticky” Alignment Snap elements to: container edges center line (horizontal/vertical) other elements’ edges/centers consistent spacing (equal gaps) Visual indicators while dragging (smart guides) Toggle snapping on/off (or hold a key to temporarily disable) Spacing/Alignment Measurements (nice-to-have) Show live distance (px) between elements while moving Show padding/margin hints relative to container How this improves UX/UI + conversion: Cleaner, more consistent layouts increase perceived quality/trust. Faster editing → more iteration on messaging and conversion flow. Helps build “polished” pages like in Figma/Canva/Webflow with fewer manual adjustments. Extra note: This becomes even more important as GemPages v7 adds more advanced interactions and components—alignment tools are a foundational productivity and quality feature.

Layers Panel Power-Up for GemPages v7: Rename Layers + Drag/Drop Reorder + Multi-Select + Labels/Notes

This is an extension of the already submitted request: https://feedback.gempages.net/p/moving-layers-from-the-layer-tree (by amy6147) Context: I’m building a UX/UI + SEO-optimized storefront with GemPages v7. As pages grow (hero + multiple sections + product/FAQ blocks), the Layers panel becomes the primary tool for working fast and staying organized. Right now the Layers panel is the biggest workflow bottleneck. Main request: Please improve the Layers panel so it works like modern editors/builders (Figma/Canva/Photoshop/Webflow/Elementor), especially for large pages. Requested features: Rename layers/sections inside the Layers panel Allow renaming any layer (Section / Row / Column / Element) directly in the Layers tree. Suggested UX: Double-click name (or press F2) → inline rename Enter = save, Esc = cancel Show custom name everywhere in the tree (instead of only generic element names) Why it matters: Big pages become manageable (“Hero – Decking”, “Trust badges”, “Color Guide”, “FAQ – Shipping”, etc.) Faster navigation, fewer mistakes, easier handoff to teammates. Drag & drop to reorder / move layers inside the Layers panel Ability to move layers up/down and into/out of containers (e.g., move an element into another column) directly from the panel. Show clear drop indicators and prevent invalid drops. This is essential when the canvas is crowded and selecting elements on the page is hard. Multi-select layers + batch actions (Ctrl/Cmd-Click, Shift-Click) Select multiple layers at once to apply the same styles/settings. Batch operations: Apply typography/spacing settings to multiple headings Duplicate / delete / hide / lock multiple items Copy Style / Paste Style across a selection Example: A row with 4 columns, each has a Heading. I want to style all 4 headings consistently without clicking each one individually. Optional: Labels / Notes (markers) for layers (nice-to-have) Ability to add a small “tag” or note to a section (e.g., “Needs copy”, “SEO review”, “Mobile fix”, “Campaign A/B”). This helps with collaboration and QA on long landing pages. How this helps UX/UI + SEO outcomes: Faster editing = more time spent improving real UX (hierarchy, spacing, clarity) rather than fighting the editor. Better consistency across repeated components (headings, CTAs, badges) → pages look more professional and convert better. Fewer layout mistakes when managing complex pages → less rework and fewer “broken” sections that can hurt performance and user experience. More scalable workflow for content/SEO teams maintaining multiple pages. Why this should be prioritized: These are baseline capabilities in most modern editors. Adding rename + reorder + multi-select would instantly level up GemPages v7 for professional workflows and large stores. Happy to provide a short screen recording showing: A real page with many sections How the current Layers panel slows work The exact actions that rename/reorder/multi-select would streamline

💡 Feature Requests

Pan + Zoom Canvas (Move Canvas Like in Figma/Canva/Photoshop)

Please add the ability to move (pan) and zoom the editor canvas. When the left panel is open, it often overlaps or squeezes the canvas area, making precise layout work harder. A simple pan/zoom system—like in Figma, Canva, Photoshop, etc.—would dramatically improve workflow speed and accuracy. Problem / Why it matters: On smaller screens (or when the left panel is expanded), parts of the canvas get covered or cramped. I frequently need to inspect spacing, alignment, and typography at different scales. Without quick pan/zoom, I end up scrolling awkwardly, collapsing panels, or losing the exact spot I’m editing. Requested functionality: Canvas Zoom Controls Zoom in / out (+ and - buttons) Zoom percentage indicator (e.g., 50% / 100% / 125% / 200%) “Fit to screen” and “Actual size (100%)” Optional: “Zoom to selection” Canvas Pan / Move Tool Hold Spacebar to temporarily activate a Hand tool (drag to pan) Middle mouse button drag to pan (optional) Trackpad support: pinch-to-zoom + two-finger pan (optional) Keyboard & Mouse Shortcuts (suggested) Ctrl/Cmd + mouse wheel = zoom in/out Ctrl/Cmd + 0 = fit to screen Ctrl/Cmd + 1 = 100% How this helps UX/UI + SEO workflows: Faster editing = more time spent improving real UX (spacing, hierarchy, clarity) instead of fighting the editor. Better precision on layout → cleaner pages, more consistent design, fewer accidental misalignments. Easier to review above-the-fold and responsive details quickly, which supports conversion-focused layouts. Extra notes: This is standard in most modern editors (Figma/Canva/Photoshop), and it would be a huge productivity win inside GemPages v7—especially when working with side panels open.

More Keyboard Shortcut Support

Building a SEO-focused, UX/UI-polished store in GemPages v7 requires a lot of small repetitive actions (links, styling headings, consistency across sections). More shortcuts would significantly reduce friction, speed up production, and help keep designs consistent. Current pain points: Creating hyperlinks in text is mouse-heavy: Today: highlight text → click the chain/link icon → paste URL → confirm. Request: support the industry-standard shortcut Ctrl/Cmd + K to “Insert/Edit Link” in the inline text editor. Repeating styling across similar elements takes too many clicks: Example: One row with 4 columns, each column has a Heading. I want to apply the same typography (size/weight/spacing) to all 4 headings quickly. Global Styles is great for base typography, but in real pages we still need quick “apply same style here too” workflows. Request: add a keyboard shortcut for “Copy Style” to match the existing “Paste Style” workflow. Suggested: Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + C = Copy Style Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + V = Paste Style (already exists) Requested features (v7 editor): A) Ctrl/Cmd + K → Insert/Edit Link for selected text in inline editor Same behavior as common editors: if text is selected → opens link modal; if cursor is inside an existing link → edit link. B) Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + C → Copy Style (for the selected element) Complements the existing Paste Style shortcut and reduces repetitive context-menu clicks. Optional (nice-to-have): C) Shortcut/Hotkey cheat sheet in editor + ability to customize shortcuts in Preferences. How this improves UX/UI + SEO workflows: Faster page building and iteration (less time clicking, more time improving content and layout). Encourages better internal linking practices (quickly adding links), which helps site structure and SEO. Improves design consistency (typography & spacing), reducing visual “noise” across the site. Brings GemPages in line with common editor conventions (Ctrl/Cmd+K for links is widely used). Thank you! Happy to provide a short screen recording of the current workflow + how the shortcut would be used.

Feature Request: Auto Count-Up Numbers & Graph Animation on Scroll

Hi GemPages Support Team, I’d like to request an important feature that would be extremely helpful for many store owners and would improve conversion-focused sections. Feature request: A built-in option for auto-scaling / count-up animation for numbers and graphs. For example: When a visitor scrolls to a section that contains stats, milestones, or a progress graph, the numbers should automatically animate (0 → target number) and graphs should fill/scale smoothly on reveal. This is a very common feature on high-end Shopify brands and landing pages, and currently users have to rely on custom code or external apps to achieve it. Having it as a native GemPages element would: Improve user experience Increase engagement and trust Help boost conversions Save time for users who don’t know coding It would be amazing if you could add: Count-up numbers (with speed, delay, and formatting options) Graph/progress bar auto-fill on scroll Trigger on scroll / viewport reveal Mobile-friendly support I believe this feature would add huge value to GemPages and would be widely used. Thank you so much for considering this, and I’d love to hear if this is something you can add to your roadmap.

Add discounts used in triggers

It would be great to add discount used in the custom triggers so we can adjust the upsell offer accordingly. If the customer already ordered with a discount we’d want to be able to show a different offer than to those who have not used a discount, yet. For instance, we offer military discounts. If the upsell offer has a lower discount than the military discount on their order, they’re not likely to take the offer since they can buy it at a lower cost.

Product carousel image size

GemPages ‘Product Carousel’ images are pulled from the product’s main media in Shopify. This means the thumbnail images (200×200 to 400×400 pixels) are rendering from the full-size >1000×1000 pixel images. This is extremely inefficient from a page optimisation perspective. It should be possible to select different, size-optimised images for each product thumbnail.

Move multiple items or elements by selecting them with a Control button

Please consider to add this feature: How about enabling a feature in which you can hit "Control" button on your keyboard and then left click on multiple boxes / elements and then move them around using your left mouse. Analogy: You know like in Microsoft Powerpoint, you can hit your keyboard: “Control” + then you left click on multiple items to choose them then you release Ctrl button and use your left mouse to move them around or you can choose multiple elements at the same time then perform functions like Ctrl + C, etc. Thank you kindly!

Article Element Button: needs customizable after-click action

The read more button in the article element does not allow a customizable after-click action. For SEO purposes, it is important to ensure that the article opens in the same tab rather than in a new one. The regular button element has a customizable after-click action—can you please add this feature to the article element button?
