# What’s new in Gutenberg 22.5? (04 February)

**[Make WordPress Core](https://daily.dev/sources/wordpresscore)** · 12 min read · 5 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Gutenberg 22.5 introduces custom CSS support for individual blocks, aspect ratio controls for wide/full-aligned images, and improved List View with full block titles and actual list item content. The release stabilizes viewport-based block visibility and pattern editing, adds focal point controls for fixed Cover backgrounds, and enables text column support for Paragraphs. Navigation blocks gain a "submenus always open" option, and early groundwork for in-editor revisions appears. The update includes numerous bug fixes across block library, DataViews, Interactivity API, and collaboration features.
