does anyone know how to link to a pptx file (with voice) within a module and have it play when opened?
Hi @KimberlySlatter ,
I don't use MS products much with Canvas, but I believe you have to save the PowerPoint to the cloud in order to do what you are asking. I think the autoplay feature is going to be set within the PowerPoint show and not in Canvas. Once you publish to the cloud, you will need to get the URL for it that you can then place in Canvas (in a Module as an External URL or within the RCE as a link). As far as I know, PPT files can't be embedded in Canvas and have to open in a new tab to display/play as designed.
I think these are the instructions you want:
Publish your presentation to make it public
If you include the PPT in its native format (not the web version), your users will have to have PowerPoint installed and will have to download the file and open it in their own program.

On the new "traditional" rubrics, the scroll bar is only at the bottom. This means on a very large rubric with a lot of ratings, I have to scroll all the way to the bottom to access the scroll bar in order to see all of my ratings and/or if I need to make a comment. This is cumbersome and time consuming. On the original…

Hi everyone, I’m working through a Sherpath/Evolve LTI 1.3 setup in Canvas and would appreciate some guidance from others who have configured grade passback. Sherpath’s guidance is that the point values need to be adjusted in the Sherpath link opened through the LTI so that the grades pass back to Canvas with the intended…
