Is there a way to color code the classification of assignment categories:
Homework-Blue
Classwork-Green
Tests- Red
Quizzes- Orange
To see the different categories in the grade book? I know we can see for late, resubmission, etc.
Thanks,
I have never seen an option for that (instructional designer here).
Something like that might also not be accessible or up to WCAG 2.2 standards. Those with colorblindness likely wouldn't be able to tell the difference between classwork/tests/quizzes.
Though I could see an icon in the assignment title in gradebook being potentially useful.
Just my 2 cents!
Best,

Hi @TerriSchmidt ...
As @KyleighBecker mentioned, there is no option for color. However, when you are editing the title of a module, you can right-click with your mouse and then select the "Emoji" option (or whatever is similar on your browser of choice), and as Kyleigh has suggested, you could add icons to your module title to distinguish one from another.
I hope this will be of some help to you. Good luck!
Among all the things that I wish Canvas had is that one! Is it something that is been worked on? We had it in Blackboard (legacy) and I sorely miss and need in Canvas (we just transitioned to it from Bb). Please add this very needed feature!
I have Canvas set to drop the lowest quiz score, however, my students can only barely tell that the grade text is slightly grey when dropped. Can it have a tag like the "missing" and "exempt" ones in the student gradebook?
My Canvas shell has three different sections that all meet at different times throughout the week. I need to be able to batch edit assignment due dates by section, but right now Canvas can't filter by section for batch edit. My only option is now to manually (tediously) edit due dates for each assignment individually.
Morning! One of the more frustrating aspects of Canvas are groups and the issues that show up when copying courses that have them. But now we have yet another issue. Most recently we have had instances where people mark an assignment/discussion as a group assignment but then do not link the discussion or assignment to any…
So, we have encountered a few assignments where the Speedgrader presents the teacher with the "Empty Course" page, even though the course is not empty. I have discovered two New Quizzes in the same course where this has occurred, despite multiple students being assigned (at Module level, which passes the permission down to…
