Canvas Speed Grader

[BrockSnider]

What has happened to the shortcut keys in the Canvas Speed Grader?  

Anyone know, I used the J for next student and G for inputting Grade.  Those features No longer work.

It was such a time saver.  

Please bring them back.               #Shortcutswhilegrading

I just tested both of these keyboard shortcuts in my own sandbox course within the SpeedGrader, and everything works as expected.  If you click on the eye icon at the very top left-hand corner of the SpeedGrader (between the Gradebook and Settings icons), you'll see the list of keyboard shortcuts that are available.  Hope this helps a bit.

You must have a different version than me then.

Hi there! For me, the list of keyboard shortcuts is also not under the eye icon, but instead, the gear icon for Settings: 

However, keyboard shortcuts for Canvas can be turned off, meaning they would also no longer work in your SpeedGrader environment! This is generally done by going to Account -> Settings -> scroll down to Feature Options -> Disable Keyboard Shortcuts

If you see that you have not disabled keyboard shortcuts and they still aren't working for you, I would recommend contacting Canvas Support, as the keyboard shortcuts have not been removed from SpeedGrader, so this would be a glitch you're experiencing that they should help resolve.

My fingers must have been typing faster than my brain could think.  Yes...the "Keyboard Shortcuts" option does show under the cog wheel (Settings) icon on the top left corner of the SpeedGrader ... not under the eye icon.  My bad.
