Arrange columns in the Canvas Gradebook

Updated on

You can arrange any column in the Gradebook according to your preference. You can use a preset arrangement by assignment name, due date, points, or module, or you can manually arrange columns. You can also manually increase and decrease the width of any column.

1. Click Grades in the Course Navigation Menu.

The default order is the order set in the Assignments page.

When columns have been manually reordered, any new assignment added to the Gradebook displays at the end of the Gradebook. To place the assignment in its intended location, either manually arrange the new assignment, or reset your Gradebook order by arranging your columns with one of the options in the View menu.

4. To manually increase or decrease the size of any individual assignment column in the Gradebook, hover your cursor over the assignment header. When the cross-hairs icon appears, drag the assignment column to the desired width. This column width will remain that size until the column is resized.
