# Dropbox Import/Export & a Reimagined Elements

This week, we added Dropbox import/export, taught FAUNA to read your documents, rebuilt Elements from the editor up, and shipped a wave of canvas-navigation, image-quality, and reliability wins.

📦 **New**

### Elements, redesigned

A rebuilt element editor with grouped categories, reference history, and a new Character medium.

### More Less

Organize elements by category, revisit references you've used before, and create Character elements — with element mentions and pickers now grouped by category and clearer naming and failure states throughout.

### Dropbox import & export

Pull assets straight from Dropbox onto the canvas and send finished work back.

### More Less

Import from and export to Dropbox with a native folder picker and a recent-destinations shortcut, working across shared workspaces. Joins the existing Google Drive integration.

### FAUNA reads your documents

Drop a PDF, Markdown, or text file on the canvas and FAUNA reads it into the conversation.

### More Less

Ask questions about a brief, a script, or your notes without copy-pasting — FAUNA pulls the file's contents directly into the chat.

### @mention references in Inpaint

Pull reference images straight into your inpaint prompts.

### More Less

@mention other images on your canvas to bring a style or subject from elsewhere in your project into an inpaint edit.

🔐 **API & SDK**

### Direct-bytes asset upload

Upload files directly to the API with SSRF-safe URL fetching and upfront size limits.

### More Less

A faster, safer upload path for programmatic workflows, with consistent project_id handling across endpoints.

### assets.upload()

**SDK helper** — a one-call helper for uploading assets from the TypeScript SDK.

### More Less

Skip the manual upload plumbing and move files into your workflows in a single call.

🧠 **Improved**

### Canvas zoom

New zoom controls, fullscreen image zoom with a magnifier indicator, and zoom-to-cursor from the keyboard or HUD make navigating large canvases far smoother.

### Keyboard-friendly model dropdown

Enter selects the top result, arrow keys move the highlight, and Escape closes the menu, so you can pick a model without leaving the keyboard.

### Clickable links in comments

URLs in comments now render as clickable links.

### Sharper fullscreen previews

Images within 150MP are now served at original resolution, with larger images downscaled to a higher cap.

### 8K video upscaling

The video upscaler output cap is raised to 8192×8192 (Topaz).

### Clearer generation errors

Error toasts no longer include internal provider field-path noise, so the message tells you what actually happened.

### Inline API key errors

Problems creating an API key now show right where you're working instead of failing silently.

### "Import" instead of "Upload"

The add-node menu item is renamed to better match what it does.

🛠 **Fixes**

### Smoother canvas

Fixed flickering and display glitches several of you reported during navigation.

### Image nodes hold their shape

Changing the aspect ratio no longer breaks the image node's box.

### Inpaint precision

The inpaint brush and crop handles now line up exactly with your cursor.

### Consistent batch outputs

Batches no longer come back with mismatched aspect ratios or black bands; auto aspect ratio now resolves correctly.

### Multi-image @mentions in Kling

Reverted a change that broke referencing multiple images at once.

### FAUNA reliability

FAUNA now recovers the chat after a mid-turn connection drop, no longer strands queued messages, matches @mention node names to the canvas, stops scattering or scrambling nodes on dense canvases, and can rename action nodes.

### Techniques

Split Text slots now map to distinct technique outputs.
