It's posible to show % on assigments instead of pt?

Hi is posible on Canvas to show on the assigments list the % sign if my assigment is grade by percentage?

Im having assigments by points and by percentage but when I enter to the Assigments List, all the asigments is market by pts and is very difficult to differentiate each of them.

Thanks

Yes:

You will have to do this per column, but it does the trick.

This doc page explains it in more detail:

Hi thanks for your reply

My actual question is in the Assigment list view

Take this as example

test is configurate Display Grade as Points

Test 2 is configurate Display Grade as Percentage

But both is listing with pts, it is posible to show % in Test 2 and pts in test?

Thanks in advance

Test 2 cannot be displayed as a percentage because that's not really how percentages work. The number shown (20 pts) is the total number of points possible for the assignment. If the displayed number were to be replaced with "100%", what is it a percentage of? 100% of 5555 points is 5555 points. A user would have no idea how many points an assignment it actually worth. If this view were changed to percentage, in my opinion it would be even more confusing.

This is how Canvas is programed to display the data, and the odds of it changing are not very high.
