| + | ===== Changes to homepages and widgets in the Brightspace Daylight Experience ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | In the Brightspace Daylight Experience, you can no longer set background colors or images for a homepage or select a color for widget headers. These limits ensure that information is not lost when the display resizes for tablet, mobile device, or other narrow displays. It also ensures that the Brightspace Learning Environment continues to provide a clean backdrop for announcement items, content, and other custom widget material. | ||
| + | |||
| + | To ensure that the Brightspace Daylight Experience is able to optimally resize for narrow displays, D2L recommends that you update your Brightspace Learning Environment to a one or two column homepage layout with your primary content on the left. When the display area collapses to a single column on mobile devices, the content in the secondary column appears beneath the left, primary content. If you do not want to lose the image in your widget header, you can create a banner image widget below the navbar or add an image widget in your secondary column to customize the display. | ||
