Design sections
Design sections enable a unique set of capabilities and defaults which give designers control over page and content layout as they collaborate in real-time with content contributors.
- Set the exact number of pages for each section to protect spread and layout design.
- Fix floating objects to a page to maintain placement as in-line content changes.
- Lock floating objects size and position to prevent user accidental edits.
- Reorder design sections to finalize report order while keeping page layout intact.
Previously in beta, this feature set is now supported by Workiva's full change-management capability set including:
- Track Changes
- Blacklines
- Send for Review
This includes all existing change tracking. In addition, adding and removing Design Pages will now be tracked.

Shape rotation re-anchoring
When a shape is rotated in a document and is near text, the anchor will now be placed in such a way that the text wraps around the shape.
Charts
Added "Zero line renders above" option
You can now display a chart axis zero-line above all series, making it easier for chart designers to ensure their charts look as expected. This is most useful when a combo chart has both positive and negative data and the zero line need to render consistently across all data points.
