A wish: being able to use a minus-function when inviting students for assignment in the case that it is for a class, but with the exception of for instance 2 students: For exampe: class2425_1, -Mildred, -Henry
Hello there, @ErnoMijland ...
I wasn't real sure what you were referring to when I first read through your posting. However, I'm taking an educated guess that you are asking about the "Assign To" options when editing an assignment in your course. It sounds like you would like to assign an assignment to everyone *except* certain students. Is this correct? If so, there is actually a separate area here in the Canvas Community website where you can submit your ideas that you'd like to see incorporated into Canvas. Fortunately, there has already been an idea submitted (way back in 2015) that has gotten lots of comments from Community members all around the globe. The status is currently "Open". Here's the link:

I'd encourage you to follow this idea so that you might have the chance of voting on it in the future.
Please know that the idea process is going through some changes right now, so you'll want to check out this blog posting: Turning Your Feedback into Better Prioritization a... - Instructure Community - 637959
And finally, there's a separate area to submit your ideas. (This area where you posted your question is more for asking questions about Canvas ... not as much for submitting your ideas). Here are Guides for you on how to submit a new idea (though you won't need to submit for your above idea...so as to avoid duplication of ideas):
I hope this will be of some help to you.
Hoping someone can explain for me. We're using pacing to avoid manually dating regular assignments each quarter, but the dates I see are based on when the course was instantiated, while students see dates based on when they were added to the course by [backend software I don't know anything about, presumably]. If I set…
Has anyone else had issues with an influx of duplicate users in Canvas? Ours is currently in the form of an email that already exists, becoming a new user - and not automatically merging with the user ID with the same email that also is linked to our SIS ID correctly as well. For example, user 1 is xyz@gmail.com without a…
Canvas Portfolios provide a powerful platform for students to document their learning journey, reflect on their progress, and showcase competencies. However, in programs where multiple educators are involved in assessment—such as team teaching, moderation, or competency-based evaluation—there are important questions about…
I have a student that was in a tag called "ac" and recently moved him to a different tag, "AC." I did ensure the old tag was removed; however on a canvas PAGE he sees both pages the "ac" and "AC" Canvas Pages. I removed the assigned tags to the page and the one tag to the student thinking maybe if I remove and reassign…
Started testing the new Portfolio today. Our K-12 district is new to Canvas and never implemented a portfolio solution. I was testing the share as a studnet using the 'Anyone can view link' to an outside user = does not have a login ID for our instance of Canvas. As the outside user, I am able to open and read the…
