Change Font for individual user interface

Hi,

I was wondering if there is a way to change the user interface font as a student? I find it difficult to focus on reading the default font for a large length of time. Any posts I've found seem to be from teachers/administrators attempting to change it for all users of a canvas page. I have already attempted to use a chrome extension and explored canvas settings.

Thanks

Hi, Helen. I have often wrestled with questions about "fonts in Canvas".

It seems the perpetual answer is: "Users have the ability to zoom-in and zoom-out. For that reason, Instructure doesn't give admins and creators a lot of control over styles and default fonts." I'm not sure if that is 100% accurate. But... in your use-case: Is there some reason you, as a student, can't just "zoom in" in your browser [Ctrl+]?

Enhanced Grading - Import of Canvas Rubric not working

When using Classic Quizzes, there is no option within the quiz settings to enable anonymous grading, so we rely on instructors using the hide student names setting in SpeedGrader to…
