[Gradebook] Default Comment

[andrew_starnes]

When I use the grade book I like to enter zeros for work not submitted by using the "set default grade" feature. It would be very beneficial if there were also a "Set Default Comment" feature that operated in the same way. Currently I have to go back into speed grader to leave a comment. That defeats the purpose of the "Set Default Grade" feature for me. I would just enter the grade and comment at the same time in Speed Grader.

This suggestion was written in 2016 and 2022 is almost over.  I would also like to see this feature added.  I would like to explain why I entered a grade "class participation" or "zero until it is submitted", etc.  I have to manually copy/paste in each comment box of a student and it is really tedious...
