It looks like the method for editing captions on Canvas Studio has been recently updated. (In the last week or so.)
Formerly: you uploaded a video to Canvas, requested captions, and then clicked "Review" and could make changes line-by-line and, after making all of those changes, you clicked "Save and Publish".
Now: when you review your captions, each time you edit a line, you have to click "Save".
This makes a time consuming task a lot more time consuming. I was wondering if there is a way to make all changes at once before saving, using the updated controls? (I was also wondering about the rationale for this change?)
Also, this change was made during the academic semester, after I had already created video assignments for my classes, along with instructions for students about how to caption their videos using Studio, so now I have to update those instructions in all of my classes. Could changes that might impact assignments be made outside of regular term-time?
Thanks very much,
Bridgitte Schaffer
