# New guided template system

Templates have been overhauled with a new UI and inline instructions to help guide you through the process of setting up axioms - whether for the first time, or when you just need to get set up quickly.

Further improvements are being prepared to templates to make them more user friendly, so watch this space!

# Inline step help improved

New help and help videos are available on all steps when added to the builder.

# Sync all stored cookies

In 4.0, cloud storage of cookies was introduced. Cookies are stored seprately for each axiom, which makes re-syncing them quite awkward if you have many axioms that share the same cookies.

In 4.1, a new button has been added to globally re-sync all cookies of a particular type, which should save some time!

# Search for and edit a particular row in a Google Sheet

A new step has been added allowing you to get the row number of a row in Google Sheets that contains some specified text. This step returns the row number so that you can use it in subsequent write operations, allowing you to edit particular parts of the sheet.

A pre-set snippet has also been added to cover this functionality.

# New datepicker step

Datepickers have long been annoying to deal with in browser automation, due to the number of different implementations that exist. In 4.1, we've added a new step that lets axiom better understand the structure of these datepickers, making many examples much easier to automate.

# Settings page redesign

The settings page has been getting crowded, so has been redesigned to group information hierarchically and save on screen space.

# Go back to previous axiom

When editing an axiom linked to a parent, the back button now allows you to return to the parent instead of just to the dashboard.

# Configure download wait time

The time that axiom will wait for a file download is now customisable, to cover cases where the download takes a long time to start. This is particularly helpful in cases where large reports are being generated by a website on demand.

# Use your local timezone in Cloud runs

Previously, axiom runs would occur in the UTC timezone when running remotely. In rare cases this can cause discrepancies between the time of a run according to the server, and the time of the run locally.

To resolve these issues, there's now an option to use your local timezone for cloud runs, under Settings. Desktop runs continue to use local timezone information as usual.

# Take partial screenshots

The screenshot step can now be used to screenshot a particular element instead of only the whole page; simply select the element you want to snapshot and axiom will output an image of that section.
