The standard interface of Visual Page Editing shows two main sections. Most of the screen is occupied by a preview of the page with the well-known green bars marking the editable paragraphs. A newly introduced Actions Sidebar on the right of the screen presents all actions applicable to the currently selected item and additional info on the item or the page itself. Examples are a comprehensive page status or an overview over available page versions. The sidebar improves the overall visibility of actions in that it introduces a single location to look for actions. It is flexible and can be extended by modules wishing to add complementary functions or data to page editing. The sidebar is similar in appearance and behavior as the Actions Sidebar used in AdminCentral.
The new visual page editing is targeting mouse input and has been crafted with touch devices in mind. While you can use this interface with a keyboard, Page Structure Editing has been specifically optimized for keyboard input and thus should be the preferred way to edit a page using keys only.
