Microsoft 365 Pitstop

Office.com has a fresh new look
Beginning this week, Microsoft began rolling out a new look for the Office.com portal for commercial customers. The redesign brings a clean look that incorporates Microsoft’s Fluent Design language and icons for each service or app on the left side bar.
 
 

Microsoft 365 now supports up to 100 GB file sizes, per file, into OneDrive, SharePoint and Teams.
We have a larger funnel into Microsoft 365.  Max file size has been increased from 15GB to 100GB for individual files.  For best performance it is recommended to use OneDrive sync when working with very large files.
 
 
 

Acronym answers are now available with Microsoft Search in SharePoint
Users often run into unfamiliar acronyms and abbreviations used by their organization or team. Terms that are specific to organizations or teams might be new to people who move from one team to another, those who work with internal partner teams, or are new to the organization.
Acronym Answers allows Search administrators and editors to create definitions for commonly used acronyms to help people discover their meaning – be them new or unfamiliar.

Improved Quick Edit experience for SharePoint lists and libraries
Microsoft will be bringing improvements to the Quick Edit experience.  Quick Edit is the mode where you can make bulk updates and add list or file items quickly within lists and libraries.

Below is a summery of the updates coming to SharePoint Quick Edit:
  • Save a view in Quick Edit – You can now save a view in Quick Edit for any SharePoint list or document library.  When a user saves a view in Quick Edit, the list or document library will always render in quick edit mode.
  • Expanding the default Quick Edit view for 30 to 100 items – You will now see 100 items per page on a SharePoint document library or list when using Quick Edit.
  • Create all columns types directly from Quick Edit – Soon, you’ll be able to create all the same columns types without leaving Quick Edit. 
  •  
  •  
  • View and edit items in forms inside of Quick Edit – Get full visibility on the whole of information per list or file items by viewing it’s form (instead of scrolling to the right on the row). 

 
 
Updated sharing links that block downloads for PDF’s, images and audio files.
Currently, you can create sharing links that block the download of Office files.  This sharing link allows recipients to read the file, but not download it.
Now, Microsoft will update this functionality to expand the list of supported file types to include PDF files, images, and audio files.

**Note** Admins can control whether the “block download” setting appears only for Office files or whether it will allow additional file typed by editing the BlockDownloadLinksFileType setting in the Set-SPOTenent or Set-SPOSite PowerShell cmdlets.  The options are “enable for only Office files” or “enable for all supported files”, the default.
