SurveyJS v2.5.33

Released: July 8, 2026

This release adds an API event to control the visibility of inline description editors on the Survey Creator design surface and includes bug fixes and minor enhancements. Alongside this release, SurveyJS v3.0 Beta is available as a major upcoming milestone that introduces a unified styling system across products, a redesigned Dashboard, enhanced PDF customization, and a no-code editor for Survey Creator UI and behavior.

What's New in SurveyJS v3.0 Beta

A survey, page, panel, or question description provides additional information about the element's purpose, instructions, or context. By default, Survey Creator doesn't show inline description editors for questions and panels when their descriptions are empty.

Survey Creator v2.5.33 introduces the onBeforeShowInplaceDescriptionEditor event, which allows you to control the visibility of inline description editors based on custom conditions. For example, the following code enables inline description editors for all survey elements except Panels and for Panels that already have a description.

creator.onBeforeShowInplaceDescriptionEditor.add((_, options) => {
  const element = options.element;
  const isPanel = element.getType() === "panel";
  const hasDescription = !!element.description;

  options.show = !isPanel || hasDescription;
});
