Did the size of the scroll bar at the bottom change, or did I do somerthing?? It's so tiny that I cannnot grab it most of the time. It's becoming very frustrating. I've zoomed in and out. No luck. This seemed to happen about a week ago or so. I also work at two different schools that use Canvas. It's like this on both accounts.
Solved! Go to Solution.

I do know that recently there was an issue with the bottom scroll bar of the "Grades" page which was detailed in:
According to the above document, that issue has been resolved. However, I do not know if this has now resulted in what you are currently seeing. My suggestion would be to contact the Canvas Help Desk staff to report this new behavior. If the issue has already been reported, they will attach your name to the existing ticket so that you can be notified once this new issue in "Grades" has been resolved. You can submit a ticket following the instructions in this Guide:
How do I get help with Canvas as an instructor?
I know this isn't an exact answer for you, but I hope that this will help in some way.
Same here! I hope someone has a solution for this. It's slowing down my final grading considerably!
Why in the world would they change this (especially at the end of the year)???? Madness. Sometimes I can't even grab it because it is so tiny!
Change to FireFox. it was tiny in Chrome, but normal in FireFox.

I agree... I have to click on a grade in an assignment and hit the tab button to move to the right. IT IS SO FRUSTRATING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ALSO CAN THE HORIZONTAL BAR MOVE TO THE TOP? I also Wish the horizontal scroll bar were at the TOP because I ALWAYS have to slide the vertical bar down a bit in order to even get to the horizontal bar.

@Chris_Hofer we are seeing that this new too-skinny to grab issue arose at the same time the overlapping scrollbar issue was fixed. I reported it to Canvas on Thursday but the agent attached my ticket to the overlapping scrollbar issue. I was told engineers were working on it, but I don't know if they are since my ticket wasn't properly filed. We've had numerous complaints from staff and besides using Firefox, other workarounds are:
I received notice late yesterday that my ticket was closed, and looking at gradebooks this morning both the overlapping scrollbar issue and too-skinny scrollbar issue are resolved.
