A round-up of all improvements and changes to the Buzz platform in version 2.0.90, available on February 16, 2017.

Updated help popups, so that they now close when users click away from them.
Updated the Performance > Activity Grader screen to display Multi-Outcome Scoring objective scores as percentages always. We also removed minutes from the objectives column.
Fixed ordering in objective columns.
Fixed a typo in the placeholder text for Userspaces field in Edit Menu Item dialog: changed "bookmark" to "menu item."
Fixed an issue that was giving parents and other observers the option to Save or Save and Close activities when they should have only had previewing permissions.
Updated the student app to more clearly notify users when they're navigating away from editing blog and journal posts without saving their work.
Fixed a style issue in the Performance tool.
Fixed an issue that incorrectly showed restricted custom menu entries in the admin tool when switching the active domain.
Standardized behaviors and messaging around activity passwords.

User Data schema: A new element, personalneedspreferences, to define and adjust an assessment's choicelimit or timelimit for a student who is eligible for special education.
Data Filter concept: A new concept to allow some API's select attribute to optionally filter the data element for specific objects. For example, querying listcourses with an attribute and value of select=data(badges) would only return the badges object from data. APIs that currently have the new Data Filter are: ListEnrollmentsByTeacher, GetEntityGradeboook2, GetCourse2, and ListCourses.
