The January 2025/20.25.1 - Brightspace visual table of contents update just rolled out.

  1. Is there a way to configure how many tiles appear in a row in the Visual Table of Contents? Previously, our table of contents were two tiles across. Now that they're 3, some of our courses' unit images are cut off.
  2. How does the Visual Table of Contents pick up the image in a unit? Many of course older courses have images like the ones below, but in some courses the unit images appear nicely, and in others, they're cut off.

    >Our development team looked into this issue, and they mentioned that the 2 tiles is from the old Visual Table of Contents Widget, it will be replaced when your site gets the January Release. The layout of the module tiles should have 3 tiles in the update.

    When adding VTC to the Homepage; if no images are present in the description of the module; the default image is used.

    When you provide an image within the description field; this image is presented instead.

    Please kindly find below further information regarding this Widget:
