# UX Roundup

Hi community ☺ Small things done right make a big difference. This month, we focused on fixes and improvements that make your day-to-day smoother. Here’s what’s new.

## Development

### Visual Clarity & Alignment

- Changed the **Delete branch** button to red (Tertiary-danger) to emphasize its destructive action

- Repositioned AQL error indicators next to header cell text for better clarity

### Consistency

- Corrected folder structure when moving items — library and settings now appear at the top, matching Project Explorer.

### Bug Fixes

- Fixed random preview error in Data Model list view when fields were selected but auto-run was off

- Fixed blue banner in Rlts Diagram pushing widget controller out of viewport by switching to full-width style

### Navigation

- Edit modal now auto-scrolls to and expands the folder containing the dataset in use — no extra search steps needed
