                      Reading time: 1min

                      During this release, you'll find an exciting new Answer Type, allowing more flexibility for teachers when evaluating their students. 

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

                      What's new

                      Sketch answer type

                      From now on, teachers will have a new way to evaluate their students by asking them to sketch a graph.

                      Students will only have the handwriting tool available to do that, so the teachers can set a tolerance for slightly inaccurate answers.

                      Tip

                      You can see more details on creating this kind of question here.

                      What's fixed

                      For WirisQuizzes Studio

                      Bugs related to WirisQuizzes Studio have now been fixed.

                      • Fixes a bug that broke how compound answers were graded when the Any answer option was selected.
                      • Fixes a bug that prevented external images from being added to the specific question feedback.
                      • Fixes a bug that crashed the question's initial content when the option Lock initial content was activated. It disables the handwriting feature for the student's answer in this specific scenario.

                      For Question Grading

                      Bugs related to our Question Grading Engine have now been fixed.

                      • Fixes a bug that crashed a question's validation when it has different weights for compound answers.

                      What's improved

                      • Improves how the Bar unit is represented within WirisQuizzes Studio. From now on, the corresponding unit will be displayed as bar instead of b.
                      • Improves the usage of the apostrophes (') as decimal separators as long as º'" are not selected as units of measure.
