Previously, the width of embedded LTI tools was determined by the dimensions specified by the provider. This often led to unused space and grey letterboxing on either side of the content within Blackboard. With this update, all embedded LTIs now default to 100% width. This ensures that responsive tools make full use of the available space and aligns their behavior with standalone LTIs on the Course or Organization Content page, which also use 100% width by default.
This change brings visual consistency across Blackboard and enhances the user experience by eliminating unnecessary spacing and improving content presentation.
Attention LTI Providers: With our recent update, all embedded LTIs now default to 100% width. This ensures responsive tools utilize the full available space. We strongly encourage providers to test their integrations and make any necessary changes to ensure proper display and compatibility with this new behavior.
