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
After the cyber attack, some of my embedded images aren't showing up in quizzes. It seems to just be one of my classes, in particular, and the others were fixed on Monday. Anybody know what 3 of my classes were fixed, but the fourth one (Geometry) won't show the images in the quizzes?
Hi everyone, I've got several pages and assignments where I use frames to embed videos and interactive resources. But whenever I go into editing, the formatting in some of them breaks down: the video size shrinks down, or I'm left with an empty blank space. I think I've narrowed down the cause of this issue: Some of these…
The most recent quizzes and question banks (including renames) are not showing up as options in the Course Import Tool. As I was creating a new quiz in one course (Classic), I went to add the questions from the Question Bank, but what I needed wasn't there. I went back to the other course to make sure everything was…
In the wake of the recent Canvas security incident, many instructors are rethinking how they protect their course materials and ensure continuity for students if the LMS becomes unavailable. A common question we’re hearing is how to effectively back up courses “just in case,” especially with an eye toward re‑distributing…
Hi all, Quick question about the Gradebook color status for a 2-part checkpoint discussion. If a student completes the first due date (initial post) but does not complete the required replies by the second due date, is there any way for Canvas to automatically show a color (e.g., missing/late) instead of staying as…
