A round-up of all improvements and changes to the Buzz platform in version 2.0.65, available on September 1, 2016.
Updates
In this release, we:
- Added a Disable application animations button to the User Menu for accessibility.
- Many updates were made 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 focussed buttons and menu options.
- If there is only one category in a course, hide the Category chooser in the Activity Editor Gradebook tab.
- Removed Weight in category field from Gradebook settings in Mult-Outcome Scoring enabled courses..
- Revised the confirmation dialog displayed when users drop an enrollment to better reflect the action (changed "delete" to "drop").
- Improved Buzz's ability to handle table content pasted in from Microsoft Word.
Fixed issues
In this release, we:
- Refined the buttons to better indicate the possible actions in Student Choice activities.
- Updated scoring displays for individuals outcomes (in Multi-Outcome Scoring enabled courses) to reflect the score display settings for the course.
- Fixed an issue that kept users from choosing and adding resources with Embed content in the Landing page rich text editor.
- Fixed an issue that wouldn't recognize .png resources as .pngs when the file extension was in all caps (i.e., PNG).
- Fixed an issue that kept font styles from being applied to all of the selected text.
Editor (beta) fixes
In this release, we:
- Updated the Editor question previewer to include a visual indicator that distinguishes eval text.
- Revised the assessment question previewer, so that "Passage" questions are no longer took up a number position in the assessment.
- Fixed an issue that kept newly created activities from inheriting objectives that were added to the new activity's parent folder.
- Fixed an issue that caused questions linked from other courses to show the linked course ID when previewed, rather than showing a preview. Users now see the question preview, as expected.
- Fixed an issue that allowed Project folders to be dragged to invalid locations.
- Fixed a typo in Gradebook settings.
- Fixed an issue that would incorrectly parse HTML code.
- Fixed an error displayed when you don't select a resource for a Custom Activity and preview the activity.
