In the Canvas gradebook is it still possible to show the total grade as points? I seem to be missing that option.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @john_erickson1 - Yes, it sure is! Just follow the online lesson here: https://community.canvaslms.com/docs/DOC-16557-4152813655 Note that you can also move that Total column to the front of your gradebook, which is a nice feature as well. As was previously the case with the "old" gradebook, be aware that within assignment groups students will still see their total percentages for each assignment group.
Hope this helps, John!

In my gradebook, the "display as points" option isn't there. I have no weighted assignments. How can I show mine as points?
