The direction say to select that option. in my Total Column, that option is NOT there. It always has been in the past.
Hi @PamelaMelone -
After some digging and some help from an amazing Community member, I think I have something that will fix this for you.
In How do I use the Total column in the Gradebook?, there is a line in the top box that says: When assignment groups are weighted, points cannot be displayed for the total grade.
So, we need to open Assignments, then adjust Weighted Grades. That box must be unchecked for there to be an option in the Total Grades column to display as points.
I hope this is what you're looking for! Please update the Community once you have time to work in you r course.

My school district has changed our required Learning Outcomes for all of our courses for this school year. How can I archive the 400+ Learning Outcomes we used last school year so they're still linked to our 25-26 courses but teachers can't use them in 26-27 courses going forward?
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.
