## Color palettes in styles

Rayon now offers, on top of the **swatch** selection mode, the **color palette** selection. Colors can be chosen out of 4 different palettes: `spectral`, `pastel`, `natural`, `vintage`.&#x20;

## *Smart* search on style and block libraries.

Rayon now supports **semantic search**, a better, richer form of search mechanism on the app's library.
