On my dashboard the spacing of the font is triple, this goes for everything that is linked to canvas- the quizzes that are on canvas also have triple spacing. I must've clicked on something that made the spacing be so wide.
Hello @IsabellaG__13 - to troubleshoot, the first thing I would do is see if this happens in a different browser. If this image is from Chrome, then try Firefox. If it does not happen there, then I would first clear the cookies and cache in the original browser to see if that resolves the issue. Next up I suggest checking the web browser settings. For example, have you edited the browser font? I ask as the left menu looks unique and so the settings may be changed. The module title font appears to be set with fixed spacing - but as far as I am aware there isn't a setting in Canvas to create the effect of fixed spacing. Did your instructor do this by design?
Another thought - have you installed a browser extension recently that created this change? When I see something odd happening I turn off my browser extensions one at a time, refreshing the page each time, to see if one is somehow impacting what I am seeing on the screen.
Lastly - if other students see the same font and text being spread out, perhaps that is a setting put in place by the school. If I saw that I would assume it was done in error and I would ask the school Canvas admin to revert back. This is why I suggested one of your first steps to be to clear the cookies and cache.
It is likely something simple we've overlooked. If I were to bet, I'd go with a browser extension creating the issue.
Please share the resolution here. ;o)
Best, Jeff
My Canvas shell has three different sections that all meet at different times throughout the week. I need to be able to batch edit assignment due dates by section, but right now Canvas can't filter by section for batch edit. My only option is now to manually (tediously) edit due dates for each assignment individually.
Morning! One of the more frustrating aspects of Canvas are groups and the issues that show up when copying courses that have them. But now we have yet another issue. Most recently we have had instances where people mark an assignment/discussion as a group assignment but then do not link the discussion or assignment to any…
So, we have encountered a few assignments where the Speedgrader presents the teacher with the "Empty Course" page, even though the course is not empty. I have discovered two New Quizzes in the same course where this has occurred, despite multiple students being assigned (at Module level, which passes the permission down to…
A teacher has expressed concerns with the recent update. Exact concern is as follows: "My Canvas has been acting glitchy since the last "update." For instance, when I grade essays the highlight and cursor tools do not always work. I have to try highlighting several times,or come back later to finish. It's told me I "ran…
A recent change my students have been complaining about is that they now have to wait for Canvas to process submissions so that it can be displayed within the browser before they can check that the submission worked. When the servers are heavily loaded I have seen student need to wait 5 minutes for this. When submitting at…
