Edit a space overview with the Layout Editor
The Layout Editor used to be the tool to edit space overviews, but has recently been replaced with the new intuitive Page Builder. This release may have caused changes to the way space overviews created in the Layout Editor look. Often, these changes are easy to update. In some cases, you may want to revert back to using the Layout Editor. Read more
