Embed a Google Drive Folder
You can now embed a Google Drive folder in your LiveBinder. You will need to make sure the folder is either “public” or “anyone with a link can view.” Then just insert the url in the Enter URL: box and the embedded folder will show up.
Spell Check!
We have added spell check to the LiveBinders editor. We are using the built-in browser spell check, so you should be familiar with the interface. Misspelled words are highlighted with a red underline, and by right clicking on them, you will get the correct spelling as shown below.
