   2. made the Notebook its own ui-router state (with url /notebook)
   3. Only show add to notebook buttons and allow image clipping when the notebook is enabled

   2. show shared projects in the project list. #641
   3. fixed a bug where moving steps within a branch would not update the transitions correctly.
5. Classroom Monitor: We now display the workgroup id instead of the student name(s) if the user is a shared teacher with only view/read access to the run.
6. Branching: When a user is previewing a project, we now allow them to choose which branch path to go to when they reach a branch point.
7. Graph Component
   1. Added support for trials
   2. Implemented updating the graph based on student data from a connected Embedded component.
8. Explanation Builder
   1. Made the student text response answer show up in the Latest Student Work Export
   2. Added columns for idea width and idea height to export
9. Match Component
   1. Authors can specify whether they want horizontal (side-by-side) or vertical layout of choices and buckets by setting 'horizontal' attribute to true or false in the component json; vertical layout is the default
   2. Authors can also specify the flex width of the buckets when using vertical layout by setting the 'bucketWidth' attribute in the component json (100, 50, 33, for example); by default component will automatically set width to 100, 50, or 33 (1, 2, or 3 columns) depending on the number of buckets
   3. Layout is responsive and will default to vertical with full-width buckets on small screens
10. UI Improvements

    3. Navigation now also scrolls to the last viewed step when closing a step and returning to the project plan
    4. Added scroll while dragging support to the student planning interface
    5. Added a mask to the navigation map in the wise5 default theme when a group is in planning mode (an overlay grays out all the other nodes in the project and only allows interactions with the group that is being planned until planning mode is turned off)
    6. Improved Match and Discussion component styles
    7. Improved Notebook menu display in the WISE5 default theme on small screens (converts to a fixed bottom bar)
    8. added dom-autoscroller library to support scrolling while dragging
