202626 releases
- 6.2.0
A more reliable static and AI export: custom online tools work in the downloaded export too, ZIPs are smaller and links in the static website lead where they should. You still generate exports in the Panel under Settings → Exports. On top of that: a clearer file overview, a new tip in the manual check, animated section previews, a faster Panel and search, more accurate Analytics and more dependable work with languages.
66 changes - 6.1.3
A release focused on reliability. Signing in is smoother, you can download a whole custom online tool with one button, working with languages and storage is more dependable, and a password-protected manual really stays visible only to those who know the password.
29 changes - 6.1.2
A maintenance release. The manual is easier to read on a phone, the file overview shows how much space is taken by files you no longer use, and one button cleans them up. The icon module can show all icons in a colour of your choice, and the static export has its animations and fonts back without errors. The AI connector no longer bothers you with a sign-in window.
22 changes - 6.1.1
Adobe Fonts support. Paste the Project ID of your web project and its fonts are available across the whole manual – for headings, body text and font sections.
- 6.1.0
A smaller release after the big 6.0 line. It brings a new page type for your own online tools, an extended AI connector and a long list of fixes reported by users — from e-mail signatures through colours in animations to the resizing of uploaded photos.
35 changes - 6.0.0
The biggest update since Visualbook launched. A connection to AI assistants through secure sign-in, an improved editor, a choice of 6 languages (CS, SK, PL, EN, DE, ES), a new interactive hotspots module, alt text management and many other improvements. And everything is now a bit faster thanks to optimisation and a faster server.
59 changes - 5.8.4
A new window for choosing a section type. The Preview button shows a live example of each variant, so you can see straight away which one to pick.
3 changes - 5.8.3
A newly added user now gets an e-mail explaining how to sign in, and an e-mail is also sent when their address changes. Plus an updated Getting started guide and small fixes.
7 changes - 5.8.2
Copy the rules for a logo on colour and image backgrounds to another logo in one click, move a copy of a section to another page, and give tables more styles, buttons and expandable content.
3 changes - 5.8.1
A page group can now contain another page group, so even a large manual stays organised on several levels. Plus small fixes.
2 changes - 5.8
Page groups replace the old Hub page and can hold any subpages. Faster Lottie animations, cards in a column or at full width, and a fix for image previews that disappeared after 30 days.
7 changes - 5.7.4
A release focused on speed and reliability. The Panel recognises used files more accurately, saves and searches faster, and manual pages load more quickly.
15 changes - 5.7.3
The manual is easier for AI agents to read: it returns a page as Markdown on request, offers a catalogue of public resources and clear rules in robots.txt. The Watch on YouTube link is fixed.
6 changes - 5.7.2
Better logo handling: card sizes follow the real aspect ratio, fine-tuning with XS–XL buttons, protection zone presets, and moving between logos right on the logo page.
6 changes - 5.7.1
Lottie animation support. Add them to a card preview or to the Video & Animation section, and offer .lottie files for download.
4 changes - 5.7

9 changes - 5.6.5
Visitor analytics right in the Panel, custom redirects with click tracking, and static exports that work straight away – offline or once uploaded to a server.
18 changes - 5.6.4
Files and links can be shared between languages or managed separately for each one. Switch with a single Linked / Not linked button right on the field.

3 changes - 5.6.2
Faster file loading in the Panel, easy selection of unused files and bulk deletion.
