Encompass 3.6.3 Update

Encompass 3.6.3 Release

1. UI/UX Improvements in "My Feedback" Tab:

   • Revamped the layout of the "My Feedback" tab on your home page to enhance user experience. Specifically:
     • The columns have been reorganized to prioritize the most relevant information. The "Student Submission" column is now positioned as the first column.
     • Clicking on a student's name will now direct you to their latest response for improved usability.
     • The workspace name has been moved to the end of the column for better alignment and readability within the given subtab.

2. Enhanced Visibility of Responses:

   • A small but significant improvement has been implemented to ensure ease of access to responses within workspaces. Specifically:
     • A check has been added to allow owners, students, admins, or collaborators of a workspace to view the "View All Responses" button within the workspace.

3. Default Display of Mentor Responses in Mentor Thread Page:

• In the mentor thread page, where crafting responses and viewing student submissions occur, we've made a modification to improve user interaction. Specifically:
  • The page will now default to displaying all mentor responses upon initial render. Previously, this section was hidden initially.

Encompass 3.6.2 - update

What's new

Bug fixes:

Addressed an issue where copying or creating workspaces resulted in discrepancies with date displays, sometimes being off by a day or even a week. This problem should now be resolved.

New features:
Feedback/Mentor Thread Rework: A rework of our feedback/mentor thread, available for initial testing. This new implementation is accessible via the "Feedback" tab on your homepage or by making a response through a workspace. A new component called "response-mentor-thread" will now be the parent component for reponse-mentor-reply and so on.

Fixed Issues

1. Fix for Student Account Comments: Previously, comments were not displaying for student accounts in parent workspaces. We have resolved this issue, and comments and selections will now be visible as expected when logged in as a student. This improvement ensures a smoother workflow and better collaboration between students and their parents. @ywakili18

2. Improved Comment Highlighting in Group Workspaces: We have addressed a bug related to comment highlighting in group workspaces. Previously, when selecting a section in a group workspace, the comment did not highlight as expected. With this update, the comment highlighting functionality is now working as intended across all workspaces. This enhancement allows for clearer communication and easier navigation within group projects. @ywakili18

Backend Migration and Node.js Upgrade
In this release, we have migrated some backend components to improve performance and maintainability. One significant upgrade is the transition from Node.js version 12 to version 14.21.6. This upgrade brings various improvements and optimizations to Encompass, ensuring a more robust and efficient application. @ywakili18 @htres736

To align with the Node.js upgrade, we have also updated the Dockerfiles to accommodate the new version. These changes further enhance the deployment process and streamline the containerization of Encompass.
