We’ve added two new style options to customization settings for your docs site.
Firstly, we’ve added a new Depth style setting in the Site styles panel, which lets you choose from two depth options. ‘Subtle’ is the default style, and adds some shadows and elevation to UI elements like buttons. The new ‘Flat’ style removes all shadows and elevation for a clean, simple look.
We’ve also added a third corner style in the same panel. Along with our existing ‘Straight’ and ‘Rounded’ options, you can now also choose ‘Circular’. This will affect UI elements such as buttons, TOC highlights, site sections and more.
Your page cover images no longer have to work for both light and dark mode simultaneously. Now, when you add a cover image to a page, you can also upload a dedicated version of the image to display when your docs are viewed in dark mode.
To do this, simply hover over the cover image in the editor and open the Options menu 
. Here you can choose Replace image and select a new image for light or dark mode.
We’ve improved the design and information included in the notification emails you receive when someone comments on a space or a change request your own.
The new design includes the name of the change request or space, and the page, instantly giving you more context without needing to click through and read more.
We plan to roll out similar improvements to our other notification emails soon — stay tuned for more news on that!
