Currently the only way to "remove color" is to select a greyscale value like #000000, #777777, or #FFFFFF, which fades out the image and isn't ideal.I am new to Canvas, so if there is a way to directly write backend CSS files that I'm unaware of, tha...

- attendance is 10 points per class. (That's correct in roll call settings.)- It is set to reflect as points, not percentage. (Like the rest of the assignments)- We've had two classes. Each of my students' grade under Roll Call Attendance shows 100/1...

Hello,I did a bad thing.  At the start of the semester, I set up a pre-test for my students.  It was in the form of a Practice Quiz.  Rather than first add questions to a Question Bank, I just added them directly to the quiz.  Now, I want to set up a...

We'd like to take greater advantage of custom course roles, but it appears that the custom course roles still don't show up in the Inbox when drilling down in a course to view users. I know this has been brought up in the past, and I had thought that...

Hi! At the end of each of my quizzes, I usually like to add "extra credit" or "bonus questions," which are not required for students to answer, but provide an opportunity for students to earn 1 or 2 points beyond the "total possible" points of the qu...

I'd like to use an ungraded canvas quiz/survey to solicit votes from my class on topics for the second term. This would be ideally a "ranking" style quiz (see here Survey Ranking Questions vs. Rating Questions  for the distinction between ranking / r...

I am trying to determine the default font-family used in Canvas. I need to have that information to report it in a grad school course that I am taking.  I have searched all over for it, but don't see it anywhere.  Any help would be appreciated!  Than...

Can Canvas Data access the granular attendance data created by Roll Call?

I did a brief search of the general Canvas help and didn't find this, so was wondering if others knew: what does it look like from a student view to submit to an Assignment or Quiz after the deadline has passed? I had a Quiz with a deadline yesterday...

Also, can I keep assignments unpublished but with the proper due dates.  Bottom line,  I was unable to create everything before the course started, so now I am scrambling to create and teach.  Do you have any advice to go about this issue for me in t...

Students created video projects and submitted them to a Canvas assignment.  I would like to download and save some of the submissions to my computer, but can't find a way to do so.  Is this possible?

I am trying to add a student and professor to one section from another section in the same course.  I added them and it sent an invitation.  Beside their names it says pending.  However, they are not seeing an invitation on their end.  Any advice on ...

Is it possible to add points to every student's score on an exam? I only see information about quizzes that are set up in Canvas. I do not see any options for manually entered exam scores.  For example, if there was an error in the key or a question,...

Is there a way to see if a student saw an announcement?  Are there statistics showing how many of the students in a course saw an announcement?

How do I add a  "Next" button in the bottom right hand corner of a page in order to navigate sequentially through the course?

I am trying to design a quiz using the matching function because it allows me to copy and paste multiple answers all at once.  The nature of the quiz requires that I have ~75 possible answers.When I preview the quiz, all the answers are jumbled.  I d...

Is anyone aware of a shortcut to add new questions to a question bank instead of scrolling all the way to the top to press add?  When you add questions to a quiz it has the buttons down at the bottom to add a new question.

I want to assign point values (1 through X) for multiple answer quiz questions, but I don't want the students to have the "hint" that a point value would offer. I do not see a "hide point value" option, as I had in Schoology. How do I do this? Thanks...

I would like to hide old announcements in my courses. I do not need them deleted, I just want to hide them if that is possible.  If so, directions on how to do that are appreciated!

I like to use some quizzes as a way for the students to self-access subject knowledge by allowing them multiple attempts.  My theory being that they can then focus study time on weak areas.  It appears that Canvas will only allow me to show all the r...

Can we create due dates based on the day a student accepts the class in Canvas?  So a student starts a class on Wednesday.  I add him/her to the class, they accept the course, and from that date it calculates the due dates.  So for example maybe the ...

Opening PDF files-  I don't want students to have to download a pdf file to view.  I want it to simply open.  How do I do this?
