Hello! Welcome back. "Cannot Move" means you can make copies of the tile. I use this when I want students to use a tile as a template to make infinite copies of a tile. Or when I want them to... (More)

Hi Rachel. Our app does not have the same functionality as using the site in a browser. To access your saved Polypad on an iPad, open Polypad in a browser winder. We do hope to update the app at some... (More)

Hi Barbara -

That is not currently an option, but I'll add it to our list of user requested features. In the meantime, you can use parentheses to represent multiplication. Thanks for passing along the idea!

That tile is actually no longer in the tile panel. However, you can copy/paste it from the example canvas. Copy it from the example canvas with command-c, and use command-v to paste it onto a new canvas. That should work!

We don't have sorting features in tables yet, but will add those at some point. Here is a workaround for now: https://mathigon.org/polypad/Qw61v35jr8QGqw11

I got numbers 0-10 on the cards and moved them into order and then copied that row to... (More)

Hello. Two great questions. Thank you for asking. Those are both not currently available but are items we have on our feature list to add at some point. So, stay tuned! And be patient - the list is full of... (More)

Hi Jennifer. Thanks for your question. Currently, the number line jump option only is available to the right, but we are hoping to add backwards, up, and down sometime in the future. So, stay tuned!

Hi there and thanks for the question. You can't see all the classes at once. You need to switch classes in the teacher dashboard. Try that and let me know if you have any other questions! Thanks!

Hi Bernadette. Thanks for your question. It is not possible to easily rotate about a point. Visit mathigon.org/pd53 to view complete user guides for all our tile categories. Thanks!

Hi Jenny - Thanks for your question. Yes. We are working on some autosave options so scholars don't need to manually save their work. 

Hi Andrew. I saw your other question about the new Customize UI options. I wonder if this update from a few weeks ago is impacting some if your embedding Polypads? Maybe try opening the embedded Polypad within Polypad, change the... (More)

No. That is not currently an option, but we hope to add that at some point down the road. Thanks!

Yes - we do plan to add Canadian currency at some point soon! Thanks!

Not yet, but we have that on our list of features to add at some point!

We had a bug for a small period of time, but it seems to be fixed. Sorry for the inconvenience. Please let us know if you are still experiencing the issue. Thanks!

Hi Emma. Thanks for the question. We will look into adding student high scores in Factris to the teacher dashboard as a possible solution here. So great to hear your students have such an interest in the game, and the... (More)

Hi Kaleen. Thanks for your question. Glad to hear the program is working well for you. Individual student reporting is not currently and option, but we hope to add the feature in time for the start of next school year.... (More)

Hi Julie. Thanks for the question and it's great to hear the inclusion of the 11's and 12's have value for you and your students. Yes - we need to update the chart to include those. Hopefully, we'll be able... (More)

Hi Robin! Yes - the typical copy/paste with command-c and command-v works from one canvas to another!

Too many Polypads is the kind of problem we like to hear about! The "Done" and "To Do" feature is a good idea and I'll add it to our ongoing list of teacher suggested features. I don't think we'll get... (More)
