Backward compatible files in Adobe Muse
With Adobe Muse CC 2018, when you open a .muse file created in an older version of the app, file conversion takes place. This file cannot be reopened in an older version of Muse. To ensure that you have a copy of the file as created in the older version, a backup copy is automatically created at the same location.

Responsive Widgets
Slideshow, Composition, and Contact Form widgets are now fully responsive. The widgets are responsive not only on export but also on the design surface while editing and modifying them. While dragging newer widgets onto the canvas will be responsive out of the box - you can also choose to make widgets in your older projects responsive by setting responsive sizing and pinning to it.
Stability and Performance Improvements
This release of Muse contains stability improvements to improve the reliability of the Muse app. Performance-related improvements help you get started and deliver faster than before.
For example, the file open operation, especially files that have multiple pages and a large number of break points, now open quickly in Muse. Also, enhancements to the export workflows ensure that you are able to get your site online sooner.
Productivity Improvements
Muse CC 2017.1 contains various enhancements to the usability of the app. Important improvements include:
Select a sub-element in a group. With nested groups of widgets or elements, you can now double-click a sub-element to select it and access its properties. Previously, one had to recursively select each parent element to access a sub-element.
Pinch to zoom. You can now use a trackpad or a touchscreen device to zoom in or out of a view the placement and position of objects.
Fixes to customer-reported issues
This update also contains fixes to various issues that customers have reported. These include usability improvements, fixes that caused the app to crash, or unexpected behaviors.

Adobe Animate CC Integration
Drop an Adobe Animate CC composition directly into the Design canvas from your CC Library.
Creative Cloud Assets improvements
You can archive and restore all your assets stored in Creative Cloud, Creative Cloud Libraries, assets created with CC desktop products, and mobile projects.
Typekit Marketplace integration
Buy fonts and use them in your Adobe Muse CC projects, using Typekit’s font sync and web technologies.
Power Zoom
Save time looking for content on your website by using the Hand tool to zoom, pan, and scroll on a specific section.
Library Items Retain Breakpoints
Library items that include breakpoints when dragged into the Design canvas now retain breakpoints, allowing for faster widget integration with Muse sites.
Share button
After publishing your Adobe Muse CC site, clicking the Share button displays options to share the URL of your site and a link to where you can edit your site using In-Browser Editing.
In-Browser Editing Merge Dialog
The all-new Merge dialog shows changes directly - in the context of the design. Also, syncing changes from In-Browser Editing is now a smoother experience.
Form-related Improvements
reCAPTCHA v2
Muse CC 2017 includes the new iteration of reCAPTCHA that adds the checkbox with “I am not a robot.” Google recently changed their keys that are generated, so that freshly-made keys will only work on this new version of reCAPTCHA. Keys that were generated before August will work on both versions of reCAPTCHA. Try it out and let us know if Google knows you’re not a robot!
Submit button
With Adobe Muse CC 2017, the Submit button on a Form is now rendered using HTML and CSS. This results in high-quality rendering on any screen and at any zoom level.
Performance Improvements and Bug Fixes
Improved performance of drawing, typing and scrubbing when working with complex pages and multiple breakpoints.
Scroll Effects in Fixed-Width Breakpoints
You can now use scroll effects for items on any breakpoint set to fixed-width. The breakpoint's fixed or fluid width setting can be changed through the Breakpoint Properties, available by double-clicking a breakpoint or right-clicking it.
Responsive Width & Height Rectangles, YouTube, and Vimeo Widgets
The responsive width and height resize option is now enabled for rectangles as well as YouTube and Vimeo widgets.
Vertical Move Handle
This handle is a game-changer when working with responsive sites! When an object is selected on the page, the Vertical Move Handle appears and allows the option of moving all objects below it. When using the handle, objects below the top of the current selection will be moved up and down the page. Double clicking on the handle will select all items below the Vertical Move Handle.
Native Illustrator File Support
AI files can now be directly placed into Muse. Say hello to easy vector update workflows through the Asset panel you know and love! SVGs are automatically generated when your site is published.
Google Page Speed Improvements
Muse now loads all JavaScript asynchronously. Additionally, if your site is hosted on an Apache web server and you FTP upload through Muse, we enable browser caching for CSS, images, and JavaScript files. These changes can help improve Google Page Speed ranking. We now give you the option to choose whether or not to allow your page to load faster using fallback fonts. New and existing sites have the same behavior as before (waiting for the web fonts to be available before displaying the page). This new feature is found in Site Properties in the Advanced tab under the Web Fonts section.
Adobe Comp CC
Muse is now integrated with Adobe Comp CC, an app that is available for iPhones and iPads. This app bridges the gap between mobile and desktop, allowing you to create your layout anywhere, anytime. Comp CC allows you to add components like rectangles, image placeholders, or text boxes by using hand gestures. The app converts these gestures into crisp graphics, enabling you to complete your layout within minutes.
CC Libraries Color Improvements
CC Libraries color has been taken to the next level of ease of use. Now you can add custom-named swatches to the Swatches panel. Also try multi-select with right-click to add multiple colors to the Swatches panel at one time. Objects can have stroke set to a CC Libraries color and text color can also be set. Last but not least, you can now set the page or browser fill to a CC Library color.
Ellipse Tool
Create ellipses and circles with the new ellipse tool directly within Muse. Hold the shift-key to make circles.
Image Frame Tool
This new tool creates both rectangular and elliptical empty image frames on the page. Create placeholder image frames that you can fill later when the content is ready. Simply fill the empty frames by dragging into them at any time.
Collect Assets
Gathering up all a site's assets to move a project elsewhere has never been easier. It is now possible to copy all asset files used in a site to a single location on your computer.
Start Screen
The start screen has been updated to include new functionality common to CC applications.
Plan View Orientation
Plan view now includes a vertical layout option to see master and child pages. Sites with more pages and complex hierarchies will be a whole new experience.
Direct Editing of Minimum Page Width
The minimum page width is now directly editable using the breakpoints bar. Move your mouse to the edge of the minimum page size area in the breakpoints bar. When the cursor changes to a resize cursor, click and drag to adjust the minimum page size.
New Preference for Preview IP Address
Some firewall settings prevent Muse Preview and Preview In Browser from making a connection. If you're having trouble previewing, there is a new preference in the Muse Preference dialog that allows you to choose from 3 different connection settings.
Sticky Footer with CSS
Our sticky footer feature, where if a page doesn't reach the bottom of the browser we resize the page's height, has been rewritten using CSS in addition to JavaScript. Short pages that use this feature will load faster.
This release contains fixes for the following issues:
Responsive Design
Create beautiful responsive websites in a completely free-form manner, allowing you to design visually and without constraints.
Build fully responsive sites without having to think like a developer. You don’t have to worry about code -- Muse will make sure your site will look great on virtually all browsers and devices.
You can continue to work the way you always have, by adding responsive functionality to your site whenever you want. Existing sites made with earlier versions of Muse will remain unchanged unless you decide to modify them.
Muse will facilitate whatever responsive design approach you choose, whether it’s mobile or desktop first.
Creative Cloud Libraries
Seamlessly browse and reuse creative assets like colors and graphics from Adobe desktop and mobile tools with the Creative Cloud Libraries panel. Libraries sync to Creative Cloud and can be shared so you and your team always have the files you need, when you need them.
Adobe Stock Integration
Adobe Stock can now be accessed directly in Adobe Muse, just like Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign. You can find, license and manage royalty-free images and vector graphics as you design and build sites. Select from 45 million assets, save your selection to your Creative Cloud Libraries and then drag it into your website to use.
State Transitions
Animate the transition of an image or other element from one state to another by setting the Fade options in the States panel. Users can set separate Delay, Duration and Timing Functions for each state and each element.
Import and Export Color Swatches
In the Swatches Palette, the Context Menu (right -lick in an empty area of the panel) now includes two options to Import and Export swatch libraries as Adobe Swatch Exchange (ASE) files.
CSS Text Shadows
Shadows applied to text frames without any fill and border now cause the shadow to be applied to the text, regardless of the font used. In previous versions of Muse, text shadows could only be applied to text frames containing a system font and resulted in the text being exported as an image.
SVG Improvements
Similar to placed images, SVGs now have a parent frame which can be styled and used to crop the SVG if desired. As a result, SVGs can now be added to slideshows. We've also made improvements to render SVGs more quickly in Design view. Finally, imported SVGs can be relinked to raster images, and imported images can be relinked to SVGs.
Rotation Detection in Images
Images that have rotation information embedded in them (such as those taken with a mobile device) will now be rotated properly when placed.
Welcome Screen & Starter Designs
Starter designs and help content are no longer displayed directly in the Welcome Screen. Both resources are still available and have been updated to help you get started with responsive design quickly and easily.

Text improvements
Widget enhancements
Show or hide frame edges – Adobe Muse now draws a light-colored outline (frame edges) on Objects and Text Frames by default, making it easy for you to see objects that don't have a stroke or fill applied. The color of the frame edge corresponds with the layer on which the object or text frame is placed. When you select or roll over the object or text frame, the frame edge appears darker. To toggle Frame Edges, select View > Show/Hide Frame Edges or Ctrl+H (Windows) / Control+Command+H (Mac OS).
Adobe Muse CC for Enterprise and Education - Enterprise and Education customers can now install Muse as part of the main payload in the Creative Cloud Packager. It’s no longer necessary to use the Exception Deployer on Mac or Windows.

Business Catalyst
New device detection for redirect to tablet or phone site. Publishing a site with multiple layouts now includes an additional “Redirect” choice in the “Options” section of the Publish dialog. The “Universal Redirect” looks only at screen size and touch screen support to choose a corresponding layout. The “Business Catalyst Redirect” uses a device database. The “Universal Redirect” is the method used for sites not hosted on BC and is now the default for sites hosted on BC.
