Canvas Updates
- When the YouTube Content overlay feature option is enabled, an overlay message displays in Canvas for YouTube videos not hosted in Canvas Studio to alert viewers that ads may appear. The message displays in the browser before the video plays.
- Note: Instructure is not associated with these ads; they are managed by YouTube.
- In Gradebook Settings, a View Hidden Grades indicator option is available. When enabled, instructors see an icon marking any grades that have not yet been posted to students.
- In SpeedGrader, checkboxes are added to sections, allowing instructors to filter submissions by multiple sections at once.
