Regarding the last update (end of May/beginning of June)

Let's face it, while most of the updates Genially receives are positive, you can't always get it right. I think this new update falls into this second bag and although I haven't had time to check all the new features, my team and I are very disappointed with the news regarding the editing of text boxes and labels.
Text boxes are now a disaster. The fact that you paste the text format, when you didn't before, generates inconsistencies within the tool and you can no longer precisely control the type of paragraph break or line spacing from Genially, because the external text style is dragged.
I don't know who considered this an improvement, but the fact that the size of the text box no longer automatically adjusts throughout is not an update; it's a setback. It makes it easier to inadvertently select several elements, because if I have cropped a text box, I have to modify its size later manually, when this didn't happen before. As I say, it seems like a step backwards technologically, I don't understand it.
Something similar happens with unordered (those of dots) and ordered lists, before you could configure the paragraph break between two elements and the line spacing. But since the last update in late May or early June of 2026, it has remained at 1.15 in line spacing and with a minimal paragraph break, quite scarce and unsightly.
Genially labels, which are already a rather inaccessible solution, are now even less accessible. I imagine it would have taken quite a bit of work, but making them automatically adjust to the text when the labels tend to be already quite small was not necessary. On my team we now have to be manually forcing the size of the tags with HTML and CSS, but of course, that's not something we can do retroactively.
I don't know all the elements of the last update, but I think my request can be quickly summarized in that they don't go back and don't touch editing the text boxes and labels. I also include the windows, which work very well as they are, I hope you don't plan to modify them.
Thank you for your time and attention.
