In the new Google Sites, a long-awaited feature to import existing custom themes from one site to another is available. This change makes it easier to reuse themes in alignment with the Lab’s brand guidelines and organizational style across various sites. Additionally, site editors can embed content as a full page from the following sources: custom code, other websites, and Google apps, such as Maps and Docs. Previously, editors could only add these elements as part of a page. This update provides more flexibility to display embedded content.
Google Docs now includes the ability to make multiple text selections at once, and apply actions such as delete, copy, paste, or format to all selections. First select one section of text then hold the Ctrl key for PC or Command ⌘ on Mac to select more text. This will increase productivity and make formatting and editing documents faster by eliminating the need to make repetitive changes.
Lastly, using Google Drive in the Chrome browser, staff can cut, copy and paste files using keyboard shortcuts. The familiar keyboard shortcuts Ctrl + C (or ⌘ + C on Mac), Ctrl + X and Ctrl + V to copy, cut, and paste Drive files will help save time by allowing more efficient organization of files with fewer clicks.
***Coming soon*** Though not yet available in the Lab’s Workspace, Google Calendar is rolling out improved email notifications for Google Calendar invites. The new emails will include more accessible and useful details. When an event is modified, such as a time or location change, the notifications will also display both the old and updated information.
