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'm not sure that this is the right place to post about this, but I was wondering if anyone has a fix for how the scroll bar for the entire page covers the scroll bar for just a document viewed in Canvas. The scroll bar for a document will stay visible until one attempts to interact with it, at which point the bar for the…
Hi There, We are in the process of transitioning to Canvas this year and were wanting to connect with any other MYP schools to see how you setup Assignment and grading under your modules. Or you could guide us to any resources you may have.
After using Canvas for a while, I picked up a small habit that’s saved me some last-minute stress with written submissions. Even when drafts are original, longer explanations and summaries tend to reuse common phrasing, especially in research-heavy assignments. Before submitting, I usually do a quick cleanup pass to reduce…
In the "How do I use the Learning Mastery Gradebook" page, under "Student scores" (https://community.instructure.com/en/kb/articles/660932-how-do-i-use-the-learning-mastery-gradebook-to-view-outcome-results-in-a-course#view-student-scores), the displayed gradebook shows a little colorful square and also points for each…
