In the Account and course settings on beta I see a new setting 'Default due time'. In the deploy notes this new feature is not mentioned. Will this also be part of the deploy of 30-3?

Update 23-3: I have already found the answer: this is part of the April release

I love that the ability to change times is now included here!  I do have to ask why the times have to be manually types out and are not available in the date picker like every other area of Canvas though.  The UI should be as consistent as possible, especially for students and teachers, so I really feel the time should appear in the date picker.  The code should already exist in plenty of other Canvas areas, so very odd that it almost had to be intentionally excluded here.

Originally, I was excited about this change, but it's not ready for prime time. 

Today, I wanted to change the availability dates for a large number of assignments. Rather than a table, now I see a long list of individual assignments. One after another. Right now, the layout is a mess. What happened to the table?

Alas, my excitement has turned into disappointment. Please fix this.

I see the same list rather than the table. Is this something that needs to be updated under Feature Options by teacher or admin?

I think you see the table view when the browser is wide enough.  If I make by browser narrower, I see the (less helpful) list view.  It seems the browser does need to be pretty wide to see the table view now, though Im not sure if thats a recent change or has always been the case (maybe making the input boxes wider to show the time caused this).

I see what you mean. It's good to know because when I have to share with my teams, this is important. Thanks!

I didn't notice on my wide-screen monitor, but on my narrower one, it totally breaks down - see attached short video (6 sec, no sound).

Please fix this as soon as possible. We have faculty about to wrap up the semester and start working on Summer classes.
