Design Plus underwent scheduled enhancement on Monday, December 16, 2024. With this update, the Cidi Labs Multi-Tool and Upload/Embed Image (UEI) tool was upgraded to version 1.3. This update does not change the functionality of the Multi-Tool; the only adjustment is in how the tool is authenticated.
The Upload/Embed Image (UEI) tool enhances the Rich Content Editor in Bruin Learn by providing additional functionality. Instructors and students can use this tool to upload and edit images directly within Bruin Learn, eliminating the need for external image editing software. The UEI tool offers features not currently available in Canvas' native Embed Image tool, including:
- Select images from Pexels
- Crop images
- Select preset ratios for image size or ratio
- See a live preview
- Rename the file
- Overwrite a current file
- Download the edited image to your computer to use outside of Canvas
- Save as the course image
- Flip horizontally or vertically
- Rotate image
- Zoom in or out of an image
The Upload/Embed Image tool enables instructors and students to edit images directly when uploading them to Bruin Learn.
