Kenai enhancements
Improved image management for catalog cards
If a course does not include an uploaded image, the corresponding catalog card will display a system-generated image.
A site-level setting has been added to enforce a uniform aspect ratio for all catalog card images. Options are 3:2 (default), 4:3, and 5:4, and you can also disable the enforcement. (Note that aspect ratios of system-generated images may differ greatly if enforcement is disabled.)
Administrative control for the “Modify View” modal
A site-level setting has been added so the “Modify View” modal on the catalog page, along with any preferences selected via the modal, can be disabled.
