Animations & Interaction

  • The Leeds Beckett University website occasionally uses animations to page elements and animated gifs to add impact to pages. If you wish to stop them from playing for accessibility purposes or for personal preference then please see the guidance below. Please note that browsers sometimes change how they operate, so please refer to your browser help files to find their latest information.

  • How do I turn off animations?
    Chrome

    Chrome users will need to use browser extensions. Animation Policy from Google will help you set your own preferences. Hide GIFS I am Reading lets you turn animated GIFs on when you want them, and off when you don’t want to get distracted.

    Microsoft Edge

    There is currently no way to disable animations within Microsoft Edge. Users of Edge (Chromium) browser can install the Chrome extensions above and use them.

    Internet Explorer

    To stop animations on a single page you can just press the 'Esc' key. This will stop the animation on that page. If you wish to restart the animations you need to refresh the page. To permanently disable the playing of animated GIF images, open Internet Options > Advanced tab. Under the Multimedia section, uncheck the Play animations in webpage check-box, click Apply and Exit and then restart your computer.

    Firefox

    Type about:config in Firefox address bar and hit Enter to open Settings. Search for the image.animation_mode flag and change its value from Normal to None. Once you restart Firefox this will disable animations.

MyBeckett Upgrade Summer 2018

We upgrade the MyBeckett system every year to make sure it’s in the best shape possible to support you and we need time to complete the upgrade and to test the system so that MyBeckett is in full working order when it comes back online for you to use.

Published on 25 Jun 2018

We carry out the upgrade over the Summer to minimise disruption during the teaching year. This year MyBeckett will be upgraded and unavailable to staff and students between the following dates/times:

  • Start –  Sunday 5 August 2018 20:00 BST  
  • End – Tuesday 7 August 2018 17:00 BST

What if I need to access links I normally get through MyBeckett?

Although you won’t be able to access Turnitin or your Modules and their content during

this time, there are still plenty of University services which will be fully available:

What happens after the upgrade?

When the upgrade period is over, the login page will display as normal and you will be able to access MyBeckett.
