# Midjourney Alpha Gets Live Style Previews, Default Parameters, and Feed Redesign

_Tool · published 2026-09-24_

Midjourney has pushed a substantial batch of updates to its alpha platform at alpha.midjourney.com, addressing several long-requested quality-of-life improvements. Highlights include live style previews that render your current prompt across style options as you browse the sidebar, a long-awaited default parameters setting, and a full-width masonry redesign of the Create feed with hover-based prompt display and video playback.

Editor improvements allow arrow-key navigation through edit history, HD canvas support for v8.1 and v8.2 edit types, and clearer error messaging on failed reference uploads. The update also fixes a notable prompt-bar slider bug where 50% incorrectly mapped to 1500 instead of 228, and extends Korean language support — previously limited to alpha — to all midjourney.com users. The team signals that better collaboration tools and further mobile improvements are coming next.
