Legacy themes for Sanity Studio will now handle custom colors without losing the scaffolding provided by the default studio theme. This improvement means that the custom colors you define will no longer revert to default values, but instead integrate seamlessly with Sanity Studio.

A new flag __experimental_formPreviewTitle has been introduced, allowing you to hide the large preview title displayed in the document pane form. This grants more control to users with custom implementations that do not benefit from this title being displayed.

import {defineType} from 'sanity'

export const playlistType = defineType({
  name: 'playlist',
  type: 'document',
  // 👇👇👇
  __experimental_formPreviewTitle: false,
  // 👆👆👆
  // ...
})

The comments feature within Sanity Studio is now enabled by default, embracing collaboration and social interactions on your documents right out of the box.

The import path for the structure tool has been updated. Developers should now import from sanity/structure instead of sanity/desk. A helpful codemod is available to facilitate the migration of any existing code. Existing imports to sanity/desk will still work but those imports have been marked as deprecated and will be removed in a later major version.

A codemod is available to migrate any code that may be using it:

npx @sanity/cli codemod deskRename

Be sure to check in any local changes to version control before running the codemod in case it should fail.
