Thanks Chris, that makes sense and matches the LTI behavior I currently experience in production. (We also use LTIs that don't have a placement in the course sidebar.) Since the statement about LTIs not appearing in the course sidebar was included in a post about changes to the sidebar, I thought it was intended to point out new LTI behavior.

How come in the After course navigation menu the Announcements and Assignments items (which used to be gray) have the eye icon next to them, while the Pages and Files items (which used to be gray) don't appear in the After course menu at all?

Thanks for any insights you can offer. ... View more
