I cannot hide grades the same way I did last year. The function doesn't seem to be available until I enter a grade (tells me there are no grade to hide). Once I enter a grade I can "hide grades", but I move to the next student and the process seems to repeat - almost as if grades must be hid on a student-to-student basis and only after the grade is entered. In all cases it seems students are being notified of comments whether the grades are hidden or not.

Was there some change that has occurred in the software?  I'd really like to be able t o work through all grades and comments before sharing anything with students.
