 ## Unreleased
 
 ### Changed

 - Craft.EntryTypeSwitcher now fires a `beforeTypeChange` event before swapping the Edit Entry form tabs. ([#3375](https://github.com/craftcms/cms/pull/3375))
 - Craft.MatrixInput now fires an `afterInit` event after initialization. ([#3375](https://github.com/craftcms/cms/pull/3375))
 - Craft.MatrixInput now fires an `blockAdded` event after adding a new block. ([#3375](https://github.com/craftcms/cms/pull/3375))
