warn students that zooming their browsers will affect test results #17

Closed cameronwp closed 7 years ago

cameronwp commented 8 years ago

I've seen some complaints that zooming prevents tests from passing, especially when tests are related to any kind of pixel calculation. Let's consider adding a feature where we warn students to stay at 100% zoom so that tests pass.

The alternative is to actually account for zoom with pixel calculations. My intuition is that this is more trouble than its worth, but I could be wrong.

Is it related to the new version or the extension in general?

Do you have an example of the issue?

In general. This quiz is reported to have failed when zoomed in.

Just to be clear, this is not an urgent issue.

I can't replicate the issue when zooming.

I've tried both Chrome and Firefox in many ways and I'm unable to replicate the issue when zooming. It might have been fixed with the position fixes.
