Change Font for Whole Class

[PaytonCole]

Canvas should allow teachers to pick their preferred base font for each class.

Teachers are able to change the font, but, at it is right now, it's inconvenient.

Every time I make an assignment I have to pick the font I want instead of it being already selected for me.

Can you make it so teachers can change their preferred font in the settings menu instead of having a standard, boring, serif-less font (that is not as good for retention).

This will save thousands of teachers lots of time.

Hi there, @PaytonCole ...

Your posting here sounds like a suggestion for an improvement to Canvas.  There is a different section of the Canvas Community where you can submit new ideas for the Community to evaluate.  I did try to see if an existing idea had already been submitted, but the closest one I found was:

[Course Settings] Allow teachers to choose default... - Instructure Community (canvaslms.com)

...but this is only asking about a default font size...not a default font type.  The larger "theme" for this idea is located at:

Improved UI Controls and Usability - Cleaner or fr... - Instructure Community (canvaslms.com)

If you would like to submit a new idea here in the Community, please review the documents linked under the heading "Ideas and Themes" at:

Hopefully this will help to answer your question.
