It's really frustrating to have to enter my password every single time I return to the site. I'm on a private machine that no one else has access to, why can't I change a setting to leave me logged in until I log out?

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.

Before submitting, I usually do a quick cleanup pass to reduce…
