Rollout changes

Item Description
Enhancement AppSheet types respect multi-color formatting icons

Previously, across all types, AppSheet would only allow a single color to apply to all icons rendered by format rules. Now, we are moving towards supporting color granularity as defined within each formatting rule so each icon can have its own color.

With this change, for desktop UI (preview) only, all types will now respect individually colored icons.

New: Deployed to 100% of free users and 75% of paid users.
Previous: Deployed to 100% of free users and 50% of paid users.

Enhancement For the app preview in the app editor, enable visual editing for more elements (including list menus, deck view, side menu auth section). This update also fixes an issue with the layout that shifts when toggling Edit mode.

New: Deployed to all users.
Previous: Deployed to 100% of free users and 75% of paid users.
