                    Reading time: 1min

                    During this release, you'll find some nice improvements regarding the Graphical answer. 

                    We've also made some general improvements and fixed several bugs.

                    What's new

                    Perpendicular lines, parallel lines, mediatrix of a segment and midpoint of a segment

                    All those new possibilities are now available in the Graphical Answer type:

                    • Perpendicular lines
                    • Parallel lines
                    • Mediatrix of a segment
                    • Midpoint of a segment

                    For all the cases to work, it's essential first to draw a line or a segment and, afterwards, use the feature.

                    Helper text in Graphical Answer 

                    Now, there is a new way to help users using the graphical answer. We just implemented a tooltip feature that gives valuable tips about using the most complicated tools.

                    New magnetic grid mode

                    The magnetic grid can now be set to "force" mode, forcing all the points to lie on the grid. This is especially useful for devices like tablets and mobile.

                    Also, the teacher can now choose the magnetic grid mode that will be used in the student's answer field for graphical answers.

                    Option of hiding graphical tools

                    You can now hide elements in the graphical tool in your CalcMe algorithms. This can be used to hide any auxiliary constructions from the plotters that students see in the statement, such as the control points of an image inserted in the plotter.

                    What's fixed

                    Fixes an incompatibility error that appears in Moodle 4.1.4 when using #plotter_a_b.

                    Fixes a format problem when aligning the question's statement text next to an image.

                    Fixes a problem that broke the content edition when switching between the Initial content and Correct answer sections.

                    Fixes an error that disabled the Undo button when using the handwriting mode to draw any object.

                    Fixes an issue that generated a visual accumulation of objects when the browser's zoom was modified.

                    What's improved

                    Improves the magnetic grid feature to make it much more precise, especially in tactile devices.

                    Improves how polygons are built in the Graph. When the polygon tool is selected on a tablet, we no longer draw a point in the origin, avoiding student's confusion.

                    Improves how MathType is embedded in the answer section. When using the answer field type Math editor in a Popup, the modal window with the math editor can now be dragged around the screen and resized, allowing students to see the content behind it.

                    The Learning Lemur's pop-up is not showing in CalcMe anymore.
