A round-up of all improvements and changes to the Buzz platform in version 2.0.64, available on August 25, 2016.
Contents
Updates
In this release, we:
- Added a Logout of Google Drive button to the User Menu, so users can easily end their Google Drive instance.
- Made many updates to the Teacher app to improve accessibility for users with a visual impairment. While many of the updates were under-the-hood, users may notice improved keyboard navigation throughout multiple tools and slight style changes to selected and focused buttons and menu options.
- Added messaging to the activity editor that informs users when the activity is using a resource that is outside of the course, and gives them the opportunity to change the resource.
Fixed issues
In this release, we:
- Fixed an issue that mistakenly made some course subscriptions inaccessible from the Digital Library.
- Added fixed widths to the Weights tab in the Editor to fix alignment problems that would occur on small screens.
- Fixed issue that allowed filenames to overflow a field, rather than wrap.
- Revised the way custom entries on the Main Menu function, so that choosing one no longer automatically opens the Course Chooser without need.
- Righted upside-down expand/collapse arrows in the gradebook.
- Fixed an issue that kept scoring options in Multi-Outcome Scoring courses from updating without refresh when users changed an activity from "non-gradable" to "gradable."
- Updated the student app activity Details window to show points possible for Multi-Outcome Scoring activities.
- Added a confirmation dialogue to the grade editing feature (Performance tool) when closing the window, so teachers won't accidentally cancel a grade change.
- Revised rich text editor's fullscreen formatting to better accommodate the color selector.
- Fixed an issue that didn't allow users with both teacher and student accounts to access completed courses in their student account if they had no courses currently in session.
