9 +### Worksheet management improvements in the Pool
10 +Managing worksheets and drafts is now more convenient: you can delete individual worksheets or clear out all drafts at once, and copy a title into a new draft instead of retyping it. Worksheets with a deadline are now also supported for courses connected via ILIAS. See [Worksheet](Worksheet.md).

14 +### Easier browsing in the Pool
15 +Finding your way back to a problem is now easier: you can bookmark problems, sort the pool list (including proper alphabetical sorting), and the last problem you previewed is now highlighted. A low-threshold demo access is also available for trying out the pool without a full account, pool titles that were untranslated or incomplete have been cleaned up, and browsing no longer requires cookies.

19 +### Matrices in visualizations and feedback
20 +JSXGraph visualizations now support matrix-valued variables (see [Variables in Visualizations](JSX-Visualization-Variables.md#matrix)), and conditional feedback can take matrix answers into account, not just numbers and functions (see [Feedback and Explanations](Feedback-and-Explanations.md)).

24 +### Syntax highlighting for Python and Octave code fields in MUMIE courses
25 +In MUMIE courses, code input fields for Python and Octave problems/articles now use a proper code editor with syntax highlighting instead of a plain text box. Visit [Python](Python.md) or [Octave](Octave.md).

29 +### Feedback based on the number of attempts
30 +Conditional feedback can now also depend on how many attempts a student has already made on a question, not just on the answer itself. See [Feedback and Explanations](Feedback-and-Explanations.md#optional-condition).

90 -### 3D-Visualizations
91 -Thanks to a cooperation with RWTH Aachen, visualizations are now also possible in 3D. Within the environment `visualization`, a 3D-canvas is created by using `\begin{canvasXYZ} ... \end{canvasXYZ}` (see [here](JSX-Visualization-Text-and-Canvases.md#setting-up-canvases)). [Variables](JSX-Visualization-Variables.md) can be displayed in 3D-canvas:
92 -* [Points](JSX-Visualization-Variables.md#point), [vectors](JSX-Visualization-Variables.md#vector-and-affine-vector), [lines, and segments](JSX-Visualization-Variables.md#line-and-line-segment), as well as [planes](JSX-Visualization-Variables.md#plane), and [spheres](JSX-Visualization-Variables.md#circle-and-sphere),
93 -* [graphs of bivariate functions](JSX-Visualization-Variables.md#function),
94 -* [parametric curves](JSX-Visualization-Variables.md#curve-in-3d) and [parametric surfaces](JSX-Visualization-Variables.md#parametric-surface)
95 -
96 -### New objects in visualizations
97 -There have also been developments in visualizations independent of 3D.
98 -* [multivariate functions](JSX-Visualization-Variables.md#function): variables of type `function` with several indeterminates,
99 -* using [evaluations and substitutions](JSX-Visualization-Variables.md#evaluations-and-subtitutions) of functions in the definition of other variables,
100 -* using [derivatives of functions](JSX-Visualization-Variables.md#derivatives) in the definition of other variables.

103 -### Other new features in visualizations
104 -We implemented other new features in visualizations:
105 -* [Additional options for 2D-canvases](JSX-Visualization-Text-and-Canvases.md#plotting-objects-coordinate-systems-etc): `fixView` `noMouseZooming` and more. We also adapted the behaviour of the option `noToolbar`: It only hides the tool bar (apart from the reset button), but still allows zooming and dragging with the mouse.
106 -* command [\vectorForm](JSX-Visualization-Color,-Label-and-further-Stylings.md#command-vectorform) for changing the appearance of points or vectors in text.
107 -* command [\sliderPositioning](JSX-Visualization-Color,-Label-and-further-Stylings.md#further-stylings) : Changing the length of the slider. (We intend to extend this command in the future so that authors also have the option to configure the placement of the slider ).

111 -If a student's answer was only partially incorrect, you may want to award partial credit for the response.
112 -You can achieve this by using the command [\partialScore[condition]{score}](https://wiki.mumie.net/wiki/advanced-topics#partial-score-for-an-answer) within an answer environment.

121 -### Zooming in Visualizations with mouse wheel
122 -Users can now zoom in and out in visualizations with the mouse wheel. The user can also drag the visible canvas with the mouse. If the author hides the toolbar (by providing the optional argument `noToolbar` in the `\plot`-command), zooming and dragging of the canvas is also disabled. The same holds for touch events on touch screens.

128 -The new visualization environment `\begin{visualization}{..} ... \end{visualization}` can be used in question text.
129 -Detailed information how to use it is [here](JSX-Visualizations.md#using-visualizations-with-problems).
130 -Unfortunately, the new visualization environment and also this feature is not yet supported in the QuickPreview, but only in the LemonCoursePreview. Availability in QuickPreview will come soon.

136 -### New visualization environment
137 -There is a new visualization environment `\begin{visualization}{..} ... \end{visualization}` with simplified syntax for the definition of variables. It already works in the LemonCoursePreview of Webmiau, and will in a few weeks also be supported in QuickPreview.
138 -The older environment `\begin{genericJSXVisualization} ... \end{genericJSXVisualization}` will work, but is deprecated.
