Is the email facility on Canvas going to be upgraded? I find it very basic. I can't add attachments or underline or use bold/colour text which I would like to be able to do.
The announcement section allows me to do this but I don't always want to do an announcement to the whole class so email works better.
We can use the internal email at the uni but students don't always come up in the address book so it would be much easier for me to email students on a particular module straight from Canvas.
Liz, you can add attachments to messages in the Canvas Inbox - How do I attach a file to a message as an instructor?
As for the other things you'd like, I'd vote and comment on the following feature idea - Add rich-content editor to Conversations

Hello Liz and welcome to the Community! I am not aware of Conversation changes on the horizon, but I thought I would let you know that while I haven't found a way to underline or bold text, the Inbox does allow you to add attachments. In the bottom left-hand corner of the message window, you should see a paper clip for adding attachments next to the option for recording media.
I hope this helps and best wishes!
Thank you Eric. I am new to Canvas and the community so just trying to navigate around everything. Thanks for the advice.
