Configurable `hue` property on Visual Editing

March 23rd, 2026

When using the Visual Editing feature, the overlay color used to highlight editable areas can now be customized via a hue property (accepts values 0–359) in the configuration.

Previously, editable regions were always indicated with an orange highlight, which could create a usability problem for sites with orange-heavy designs, where the overlay could blend into the page.

All the SDKs now have a configurable hue property to allow the highlight to stand out regardless of your brand palette.

Get started with Visual Editing from the docs.
