The assignments in my Canvas courses do not seem to be in any particular order. Is there a way to arrange them in alphabetical order in a mass fashion other than dragging them one by one?
Hi @jamin_hoffman - It is worth noting that students have a date-based sort and a type-based sort in the Assignments list. The date-based sort uses due dates and is the default view. The type-based sort matches the manual order & assignment groups created by teachers.

As far as I know there is not a way to do what you want. This option has been added to the ideas and themes section, so it may be developed.
There are other posts in the forum with the same question and the same results. My only advice to make everything a little easier would be to use assignment groups You then would sort the individual groups(if necessary - depends on how many assignments are in each group). Plus with Assignment groups, you can change the order in which the assignments appear in the grade book.
Here is the post where the idea has been added to the themes area.

Good afternoon everyone, Is it possible for the built-in timer inside the reply button, when the dialogue box opens, to make it a little more distinct so that it is more easily readable? I love recording and uploading my video responses directly inside the homework assignment. Still, it makes it a tad more difficult when…
