| You
can customize the display of data in the score chart in a variety
of ways. Scores can be displayed as raw scores, percents and grades;
the assignment title region can be resized; special columns can be
added with many types of data; students, assignments and scores can
be filtered so that only the items you want to see are visible. This
section explains how to customize the score chart to meet your unique
and changing needs. |
| To
display scores as raw scores, percents or grades: |
| An
assignment's display of scores can be set in its record window. To
override this setting so that the scores on all assignments are displayed
as raw scores, percents or grades, use the small menu next to the
intersection of the first student row and the first assignment column
shown below (A). |
| |
 |
| To
resize the assignment title region: |
| |
If your
assignments' titles are long, you can give them more room in the score
chart. If the titles are consistently short, you can take away some
space so that more student rows can be shown on your screen. To resize
the column height, press and drag the thick, horizontal line below
the assignment titles up or down (B). |

| To
add a column to display points earned, term grades, attendance totals,
special student record information, class rank, etc.: |

Press
on the column title above the column of student names (or an adjacent
column) and, from the menu that pops up, choose Add NEW Column. A
new column with student names will appear. Note: this menu item will
become disabled if the eight-column limit has been reached. |

Press
on the new column's title to bring up the menu again, but, this time,
choose the desired content for the column. |
| 3 |
To
resize the column, press on the vertical line to the right of the
title and drag left or right. |
| 4 |
To
move the column to a new location, press on any data beneath the column's
title and drag left or right. Note: this does not work with the column
of student names. To move this column, drag the other columns around
it. |

To
delete a column, press on the column title and choose Delete THIS
Column. |

you to find any student and still never have more than one student
visible. |
