It would be great to have the option to work with the code of a selected HTML Embed element while still being able to style other elements. Ideally, the code editor window wouldn’t close when selecting another element on the canvas.
I'm styling elements and experimenting with a layout that changes dynamically. Or maybe I'm just testing a solution, but then I realize I forgot to add a style to one of the boxes.
I have to select it, add the style, and then reopen the HTML Embed because it closed. So now I have to find my embed again (if there are multiple, I need to remember which one I was working on). I click it, then Settings, then open the code editor.
Next, I think of a class that JS will modify. I select the box, add the class, but... the code editor closes again. So now I have to go through the whole process all over again...
Will I forget which embed was open? Maybe. But having to reopen the window multiple times is incredibly frustrating when working with code.
To be fair, Webflow works the same way. But I’ve had many moments where I had to keep searching for an element just to edit the code, which is super annoying when trying to work efficiently. 😉
