by Firefox user 16396950, 3 years agoIt mostly works great and I love that I can customize the colors however I want. However, customizing the colors occasionally causes that section to completely disappear from the settings until I reset the colors back to default, which is incredibly annoying.
Another issue is that some icons on Canvas (like the black download icon or the black hyperlink icon) don't seem to allow for customization via this extension, causing them to blend into the background if you attempt to use a dark background.

posted 3 years agoHey there, not sure if you get notifications from my replies, but I just fixed the customization issue you were talking about. Also those icons you're referring to are external images, so I cannot target them with my dark mode. Appreciate the feedback!

- Rated 5 out of 5by rosewood, a month agoi love the extension! it lets me customize the course cards and makes everything so aesthetic.
however, the user generated themes opt-in is slightly broken. when i hit the opt-in button, it only shows one theme option per page instead of the 24 default options per page. overall im super happy with the extension :) - Rated 5 out of 5by Melo, a month ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Poahman06, 3 months agoI like all of the features, but there are parts that the dark mode don't affect properly. Some windows either the background doesn't change properly, or the text color won't change so you won't be able to read it. When that happens I just toggle dark mode off for a bit
- Rated 4 out of 5by Josh, 3 months agoWorks good, but currently there's an issue with calculating the GPA. "NaN" Not a number is being listed and no course info is imported into GPA. I noticed that the Chrome gets regular updates (Last update 2/10/25), and didn't have this issue.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 18801628, 4 months agoThe level of customization is pretty good, but it doesn't let me submit assignments.

posted 4 months agoAre you sure better canvas is causing this? I don't know of anything in the code that would prevent you from submitting an assignment. If you mean the submit button is missing, then check your dark mode colors - they may all be the same color which could make it appear like the button is missing. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17203931, 4 months ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by NarwhalKid, 5 months agoid love it if you could remove the code that logs "the element does not exist." in the console constantly, really annoys me when programming other stuff
edit to respond:
content.js 135
async function reminderWatch() {
const sync = await chrome.storage.sync.get("remind");
if (sync["remind"] !== true) {
console.log(document.getElementById("bettercanvas-reminders") ? "the element exists!" : "the element does not exist.");
if (document.getElementById("bettercanvas-reminders")) document.getElementById("bettercanvas-reminders").style.display = "none";
return;
}
i assume it's on some old version? i looked at the github code and saw nothing. i checked and do have the link set correctly.Developer response
posted 4 months agoAh, that's totally my bad. I forgot about that feature, it's the only one that would run on all pages lol. I think this might be a remnant of an older version, but Firefox has been kinda weird lately and taking a while to update the extension. - Rated 5 out of 5by dae, 6 months ago
