[ARCHIVED] What happened to the mute bell?

[gf3461]

I am grading in Speed Grader.  Until now, there was a bell that allowed instructor to mute all grades and 

comments inserted into papers.  Does the 'eye' icon replace the bell and its functions?

Good morning,  @gf3461  Welcome to the Canvas Community.  Thank you for posting your question.  The New Gradebook was pushed out to everyone on January 18, 2020.  So, you are correct that the old bell icon has now changed to the eye icon based on grade post policies.  You can visit the New Gradebook Users Group for lots of information about the New Gradebook, or you can also check out https://community.canvaslms.com/docs/DOC-17587-new-gradebook-and-speedgrader-muting-behavior-changes which details the old and new icons in the Gradebook and SpeedGrader.  I hope this helps, Karin.  Please let Community members know if you have any other questions about this...thanks!

Thank you for this.

I don't see this one thing I am wondering--are all comments made on papers (using the "bubble") 

hidden as well?

 @gf3461 ...

From the SpeedGrader, if you click on the eye icon and then select "Hide Grades", a slide-out tray appears on the right side of your screen with the following information:

While the grades for this assignment are hidden, students will not receive new notifications about or be able to see:

• Their grade for the assignment
• Grade change notifications
• Submission comments
• Curving assignments
• Score change notifications

Students will be able to see that the grades for this assignment are hidden.

You can begin sending notifications again by clicking the Post Grades link.

Does this help?
