Highlights

Custom Colour palate for users

Loree introducing custom colour palate for organisations. This allows the admin’s to configure custom colours for their organisation users via Dashboard and by toggle ON custom colour feature for users, they can use only the permitted colours within their courses.

This has been enhanced as Custom Font colour, Custom Background colour and Custom Border colour. Once the feature “Custom colours“ toggled ON by an admin via Dashboard, when user opens Loree editor interface they can see the new style manager property.

Custom Fonts property will be shown on “Font“ section. Same as Custom Background colour and Custom Border colour properties will be shown under “Background“ section on Style Manager.

By selecting an element from Editor and applying custom colours will reflect on the editor. Loree has allowed the HEX code for all custom colours by default.

Figure 2: Custom Border colour and Background Colour on Background section

Note : For Border property, it depends on Border width and Border style. Once user select any colour from Custom Border colours, by default it will set “1px“ border width. This width can be modified any time by user.

After admin save the configuration, the colours will be updated in Loree editor by selecting an element.

Title attribute for Image blocks

We have enhanced our Loree image blocks by adding “Title“ attributes. When students viewing the page content on Canvas by hover on images will show the updated title attribute value on hover.

Title values can be modified under “Component Settings” section.

 

Figure 3: Title attribute for Images

Difference between “Title” and “Alt Text” attributes on image:

Alt text - This will show when the image source got broken or when the image took long time for loading

Title - Title values will shown only by hover on images on Canvas page.

Pagination for Canvas Images using Select Image modal

We have enhanced pagination for Canvas Images which we are fetching it on “Select Image“ modal within our Loree Editor Interface.

Earlier, Loree fetches up to 100 images from Canvas course. User faced difficulties when they have more than 100 images on course. We did an update on fetching images by using pagination method and it will fetch all the images from Canvas course by order on last modified at the top.

Issues resolved in Loree v2002.3

LUTS - 1357 : Unable to make the changes on Global template section via Admin Dashboard

  • Defect Scenario: When an Admin wants to make any changes on Templates by toggle ON as Global or not, it didn’t perform any action. Additionally, it doesn’t allow the admins to toggle OFF the Global templates.

  • We fixed this issue and now Admin can toggle ON/ OFF the Global templates via Dashboard.

(Note: We are still experiencing issue on Restoring the templates, which is flagged as known defects)
