An updated and improved rich text editor is gradually being rolled out across DeviantArt! Why is the current editor being replaced? DeviantArt’s existing text editor lets you do a variety of things, from basic formatting to embedding deviations and journals in comments. However, it also leaves more room for instability and bugs to manifest, particularly as the third-party technology the editor was built upon has been depreciated over time.

More updates have been made to the Studio in response to community feedback! In addition to the new Scheduled tab that launched last week, you can now bulk apply presets to existing drafts and reorder drafts in your Studio. Bulk Applying Presets Your preset templates can now be applied in bulk to existing drafts. Select the items you’d like to apply a preset to, click Edit, and then click “Preset Template” to choose the preset you want to apply to the selected items. Remember that you can create multiple presets for the different types of art you submit frequently, such as portrait photography or cake decorating. Repositioning You can now reposition and reorder drafts in the Studio to sort items based on your preferences. To reorder your drafts in Studio, you can either drag and drop items into your preferred order, or you can click on the three-dot menu on an individual draft and select an option from the “Order” sub-menu.
