[ARCHIVED] highlighted text becomes a yellow block

When grading assignments in speedgrader, I often highlight a selection of text so the student knows what was missing or what I'm commenting on in their response.  On the student end however, the highlighted text shows up as a yellow block.  The text underneath is fully covered by the yellow highlighter and is not readable through the yellow.  Is this a known problem?  Any tips to work around this, other than not using the highlighter function? Thanks.

Hi  @danderson16 ,

I took a quick look at some of your graded assignments with highlighted comments and the highlight, from both an instructor view and student view, appears readable. If you have some examples of unreadable highlighting, I'd recommend reporting those to Canvas Support as that sounds like buggy behavior. If you have any further questions, feel free to reach out!
