Now available in the new DesignPLUS Sidebar, the Columns tool will revolutionize your Canvas page designs by enabling you to present content in new ways, make better use of space, reduce the need for scrolling, and improve accessibility! To see how the Columns tool works, check out our new video tutorial, available on the DesignPLUS User Guide: Columns page, and in the Video Hub. Imagine being able to create a Canvas page that looks like this? Now you can, with the Columns tool!
Our accessibility checking tool – UDOIT Advantage – now has a new feature that allows students to quickly access and optionally generate alternate file formats from wherever they are in Canvas. To learn more, visit our User Guide and watch this short training video. Note that this is an optional feature for UDOIT Advantage that requires some setup – see the install instructions here.
It has been a busy month for our product development team – some products even had two releases in February! Be sure to check out the release notes to stay up to date on bug fixes and new features that were delivered this month.
