All changes
Branching dialogues: « Interaction › Dialogue » adds a short conversation to start from, written as a script, with a map, a table of every answer and « Jouer un chemin » to try a path. Characters have their look, expressions and voices, learners play the dialogue in the player, and the script exports as a PDF for the client.
Twelve charts and diagrams in « Graphiques » (key figures, bars, trend, funnel, cycle, matrix, milestones, diagram…), each saying one thing, with a highlighted item, a trend the learner can predict first, and « Afficher le titre » to let a chart’s takeaway head the slide.
Starter blocks for scroll courses: statements, quotes, galleries, columns, panels, flip cards, steps, timelines, interactive images, characters, fill-in texts, matching, sorting and reflection, each starting with short words in the course’s language, and « Transformer en… » to change a block’s presentation in place.
A layer can speak on its own timeline: its lines, voices and blocks anchored to its words, or blocks that come a few seconds after it opens, and « Fermer le calque à la fin de sa voix » in one click.
« Ajouter un bloc » shows each block in your module’s charter before you insert it, with its styles beside the preview; a « + » between two blocks and « / » in an empty paragraph add one where you are, and the toolbar opens each family of blocks.
Your AI can run Elabora by typing « elabora »: on macOS, Réglages › Outils pour les IA installs the command; on Windows, the installer adds it to the PATH.
A denser inspector: long texts above their value, segmented controls for short choices, lists as tables that reorder by dragging, and sliders, ranges and points for free objects.
Elabora moves a little where it helps: menus, tooltips and dialogs, opening a module and coming back home, the panels and the panel under the canvas. A line’s waveform shows its real audio. With less motion asked, only fades remain.
The ElevenLabs voice picker opens on voices checked with Eleven v4 in your module’s language and says how each was made; samples that could not be heard now play. A speaker can be removed from the module’s voices.
Dragging a screen works like dragging in the plan, and the panel under the canvas has one button to show and hide it.
Faster checks for your AI: an unchanged screen’s fit is reused, « elabora look » inspects scroll positions, blocks and dialogue paths, and « elabora tools call » takes its arguments inline.
The Rise importer reads 2026 and 2017 exports, which it refused before.
Reviewers’ comments arrive right after a first share for review; importing several media files in a row no longer fails now and then; the narration’s seek bar keeps playing or paused; a speaking layer’s captions no longer cover its last lines.
The course schemas are published as 0.1.1 with the new blocks; files pointing to 0.1 stay valid.
Elabora runs on Electron 44.9.2, with its latest security fixes. Apple Silicon builds ship smaller media tools.
