Summary

Description 

Administration

Added Logic to Identify and Hide High Stakes Resources

Users who are not Site Admins and do not have High Stakes Admin rights will no longer see resources used on high stakes items. When a test is flagged as being secure in the Administration tab of the Test Edit page, it will now flag resources used on the items on that test to be high stakes as well. When searching for resources to add to a test or item, or when using the global search, these resources will not be visible to users that are not indicated in Site Permissions in Manage Organization as having High Stakes Admin rights. If the resource is shared with items that are not being used on a high stakes test, the preview will be prevented unless the user has the necessary access.

Search

Global Search - Deleted Objects Hidden by Default

In this release, we updated the global search to now exclude deleted objects from the counts or search results by default, unless the "Deleted" filter is applied.

Search

Updated Test Preview in Search

We have updated the test preview provided in the global search to display an in-app preview of a test rather than launching the OLA preview. This allows for tests authored in third party sites to be previewed from the search page without having to copy them to preview in customer sites. Test Center will still give users the true OLA preview.

Online Testing

Upload Interaction Lockout Updates

The lockout timer for the upload interaction has now been extended to 15 seconds. Adding your file for the upload interaction closes the warning modal without having to click back into the window.

Online Testing

Design Updates to OLA Settings Menu

The look and feel of the OLA Settings menu have been updated. The icons for Screen Magnification, Screen Contrast, Text to Speech, and Line Focus have been updated. Also, the on/off switches for Text to Speech and Line Focus have been changed to on/off toggles.
