Edit Style of links and images in New Email Editor

I used to love (and be a massive user) of the ability to edit the style of a link or image directly in the old email editor:

I would love to see this functionality added to the new email editor.

I completely agree! Not having this feature is such a pain, I do not understand the need to get rid of it. The new simplified "WYSIWYG" editor is a joke and a huge time sink.

We ended up reverting to the legacy editor as there was no benefit to the new editor, only made us prone to user errors such as forgetting to "copy from HTML".

You can revert to legacy in Admin > Email > Edit Editor Settings > Text Editor Version: Legacy

So much functionality lost. Jennifer's suggestion of reverting works for the email editor which is good (although I wish this had been made clearer in the release notes). BUT ... the text editor for Tokens did not revert. We need the legacy editor everywhere - we use it constantly to position graphics, change font treatments and colors (with hex equivalents), etc. Please revert the editor for Tokens as well asap.

I agree, please bring this back!

Completely agree! This is such a necessary feature when creating emails. Having to resort to placing images in tables has been a nightmare.

See this thread:

New Text Editor is ****

As we speak, we're working on adding advanced options for images and links. Should come October or November.
