I'm seeing the same thing in our Canvas system. One workaround is going into Student View to create a Test Student user for the course. The Test Student is always placed in the last row, so the horizontal scroll bar should not be blocking scores of a...

Thanks @KristinL ! In a similar vein, is there a way to hide 0-count New Quizzes from the course summary, like how non-graded Old Quizzes do? For example, if I create a "practice" New Quiz (I know this feature is not available to New Quizzes, but I c...

@paulamiranda  I agree with your ideas.  The search and instructor endorsement sound especially helpful when setting up a Q&A discussion board and you are trying to encourage students to help each other with answering questions too. For Idea #3, I ma...

Removing the custom JS/CSS didn't resolve the issue; a team member and I both spot-checked this afternoon, and we're both seeing the last line being cut off, still.Names also appear to be offset up-from-center in the name column as well, where the gr...

I have been told by our school ITS personnel that Respondus Lockdown Browser only locks the student into Canvas. In other words, it does not lock them into just the page with the quiz that employs the Lockdown Browser. Is my understanding correct?

I found a solution (or really workaround). I exported the quiz as QTI file then re-imported that file and it reset the answer choice order to be the order it is in "build" mode.So hopefully that works for other people.
