A big Design Space update is currently rolling out that changes how the screen looks, including the position of some of the buttons and tools. I had already recorded all the Countdown videos before the update was released, so unfortunately there will be areas of the videos that look different to your screen. To help with this, I’ve recorded a walkthrough video that explains all of the Design Space changes so that you can see how to do everything in the new version.
