New Flash-based sound recorder available

Today's update (444a0e43) contains these changes:

New features:

  • If a recorder app is available, all of the internal sound recording features in Portfolio will use this app instead of the existing Java-based applet. The new sound recorder app uses a Flash-based approach instead, which should be more compatible. Future improvements might be to add WebRTC audio support to avoid Flash completely.
  • Added an app proxy request handler, which makes it possible to link directly to globally defined apps, like the d-book web reader.

Enhancements:

  • When login page is opened inside an iframe, text input focus is no longer changed.
  • The My students report has been changed into one big table with groups hidden, but expandable on click. Seeing just students for a specific group can be achieved by filtering manually on the group using the search box. This should make the report simpler to read and understand for most users.

Bugfixes:

  • Leading and trailing whitespace in config variables are now trimmed when saving and updating them.
  • Character encoding in title and description when creating and modifying objects should now work more consistently.
  • Fix horizontal scrollbar issue in My configuration report in Chrome.
  • Fix indentation issue in quiz type radio and check. The text should no longer wrap below the radio/checkbox.
