# Version 24.4

## New General Features

The new Markdown toolbar provides easy access to new commands like Bold, Italic, and Hyperlink, enabling you to format your text and add links effortlessly. However, please note that the Markdown design view has some limitations; for example, all images are shown as small icons, and newline codes may not be interpreted the same way as they are in the Web Preview.
