Quality-of-life improvements for Canvas by Instructure

Image from store
Canvas Betterizer
Description from store

If you're a teach spending time grading and working in Canvas, you know how much time it can take! Canvas Betterizer is meant to make your time spent in Canvas by Instructure more efficient by adding small quality-of-life improvements, especially in SpeedGrader:
-Automatically focuses and selects the student grade
-Hit enter to submit grade and move on to the next student
-Save comments that you type often and pull them from a dropdown box to make grading even faster!
-Hit enter when typing a comment to submit it

Outside of Speedgrader:
-Remove those pesky tooltips that show up in the gradebook and cover up assignment scores
-Smallify your messages to make your inbox more accessible

For some reason several of the speedgrader features of this extension don't work anymore. When I enter the grade for the student and press enter now, it won't automatically go to the next student to grade. So now I am super sad this extension does not work.

Was my favorite extension that I used every single day until recently. Not sure if it was my district or Canvas itself, but now several of the speedgrader features of this extension don't work anymore.

Makes grading and using canvas so much easier.

This extension used to work. I've tried downloading it on three different computers, and it doesn't work on any of them anymore. It's a great concept and I appreciated having it when it worked properly. Hopefully the developer can get it working again soon!

So, it's a good concept but there is little in the way of details on just how to best use the features. Usually this stuff is common sense, but in this case I'm not so sure. For example, how do leave my canned comments on the document itself? Putting everything in the comment section is a joke. Also, what the hell does "Enable Autofocus Gradebox" mean?

Definitely betterizes Canvas! Grading is so much more effective and efficient.

Grading is so much easier... I had it on one computer then came back into the schools and desperately missed this extension. Instantly downloaded it again!

OMG, I just don't know how I could graded without this. I was thinking about writing a similar extension myself but then I gave the old google search a try and found your amazing extension. Thank you!
