Replit introduced the Element Editor, which allows users to directly edit text, colors, padding, and other style properties of elements in their app preview without coding or using an agent. The update also includes enhanced color editing with an eyedropper and new style controls for font size, weight, alignment, background color, margin, and padding. Edits that directly update source code do not consume credits, while larger changes are handled by the Replit Agent.

## Evidence

Verbatim from https://replit.com/blog/element-editor:

> You can now simply click on any text element and start typing to change it directly! It works just like editing in a design tool — no coding required and no need for an agent.
