Comment Library - Different libraries per assignment type??

[cadman_shane]

The new Comment Library feature is great, but it would be more helpful if we could have more than one library. It would be ideal to have different ones based on assignment type.

Good evening, @cadman_shane ...

It almost sounds like you are wanting to submit a Feature Idea rather than asking a question here?  If you are suggesting a way to change the current behavior of canned comments in the SpeedGrader, then I would recommend that you create a new Feature Idea here in the Community.  I tried searching for existing, similar Feature Ideas, but I did not come across anything that was similar to what you have described above.  Here are some documents to help get you started in the Feature Idea process:

• What is the feature development process for Instructure products?
• How do I create a new idea conversation in the Instructure Community?
• How do idea conversations work in the Instructure Community?

I hope these resources will be of some help to you!  Good luck.

Thanks @Chris_Hofer. I guess I was asking and suggesting at the same time. I'll look into the feature request option and see what I can do. Much appreciated!

I'm posting a link here in case it can save others who encounter this conversation another 10 min looking for whether/where this idea exists in the Idea Suggestions forum. It looks like it's been submitted in 2 places: first, the ability to group comments by assignment, and the ability to group comments within the library. Either solution seems like it would solve for the comment library getting lengthy and unwieldy very early in the course.
