Color palette needs accessible options
There are thirty choices for color in the text editor, and not one of them is green. I spend way too much time fixing insufficient contrasts on teacher pages to comply with ADA. Please give us a more practical palette for a white background.

Button to SAVE Changes
When I add, delete, or move apps around on the page, give me a button that asks if I want to save the changes I made. I have accidentally removed or moved apps, not realizing that I did, and Blackboard allows me to just close out. If I've made a change I like to verify it, and not be surprised later that I made a change I didn't intend to make.

Mobile Website Editing
In most other web design platforms I've used, there's an option to edit the mobile layout separately from the web layout. This would be extremely useful in cases where the web to mobile automatic change doesn't make sense or look right.

Bring back editor layouts
Editor Layouts allowed you to add content within an app (used to be flex now content) on a page added to a section configuration. This would allow a webmaster to set-up a template for one to work from. For example, district sometimes like teachers to have certain content on their homepage and maybe the district logo. The webmaster could create "dummy" text in a app and the teacher would fill in their specific info. This was a time saver. Please allow editor layouts to be created in content apps and added to section configurations.

Add Insert Table feature to Content App Editor
In the short time that we have been working on our new site, one of the things that we have found that is missing and would be hugely helpful would be the ability to insert a table into the Content App. I realize that there is a table app, but it seems to take up a lot more space than I would like.
There is already the ability to edit a table in the Content App, it would just be nice if it was easier to add the table without having to copy and paste it from somewhere else or…

Editor window is extremely small in NPE for certain apps
In the New Page Experience using apps like article library, link library, and site shortcuts brings up a very tiny window on the right where the editing space is only about 4 inches by 4 inches. I'm getting complaints from every person I open the NPE up to that they can't see what they are doing and they can't enlarge that tiny window. Why is it so small??? Please make it work like the rest of the apps.

navigating the interface of the webpage creative process should be grab and drop all on the same page real time! i do not want to switch
Interface layout is cramped, complicated and throttles the creativity of the educational designers it was created to serve. Proposed solutions:
- ICON DESCRIPTORS should appear when my curser hovers over an option in the tool bar. This would increase clarity and allow amateur users to learn picture function association, feel successful during the creative process and SAVE TIME.
- Larger icons in the tool bar.
- RIGHT CLICK editing options for Photos & Graphics which allow you to rotate, crop, move forward, move back, flip, in front of text, behind text, add text directly on top of the photo, add…

Heading tags in the Content App (currently using TinyMCE) should be removeable
If you use headings (H1, H2, etc.) in a Content App, and probably anywhere else that uses TinyMCE, then current configuration does not allow you to remove those headings. You can change from one heading to another heading, but that is all, unless you use the source code.
Either remove the Headings tool from the toolbar, so users can only use the Template Styles which can be cleared by "Tx", or change it to Formats and include the paragraph tag.

Configurable Content Editor
Would be great to be able to control acceptable HTML tags in the content editor at the site level.
The Content Editor is currently stripping out <i> tags that are commonly used in HTML5 markup through sources like Font Awesome.

In WYSIWYG editor, represent the video frame with a placeholder so teachers could see where it would display on the page
Teachers cannot easily determine where a video will display (without HTML experience) within the editor; request a placeholder be used in the editor to represent where the video will display.

Pre-formatted SW Page Layouts
I'd like to see some simple but visually appealing, CSS, pre-formatted PAGE layouts from Schoolwires. It'd be great to see some for teacher pages, athletics, and activities/clubs.
