What is the difference between light blue (late submission) and dark blue in the gradebook?

Question

I understand from this "How do I use the icons and colors in the Gradebook?" page that Blue represents: "Late submission".

But my gradebook has 2 different shades of blue, with the light blue submission not being late (whereas the dark blue submission was indeed submitted late).

What does the darker blue represent?

Thanks!

Hi @fkhatib ...

There is no difference between the light blue and dark blue.  What you are seeing is that the light blue is against a white background (top row in your screenshot).  The darker blue is only because it's against a gray background (second to last row in your screenshot)...making the blue appear darker.

Hi @fkhatib,

@Chris_Hofer is right. You would also see something similar for other statuses and their colors because of the alternating white and gray background for each row/student in the table.
