If you decide you don't need a column in your current gradebook layout, you can remove (or hide) it. Whether you remove or hide the column depends on whether or not you've saved it in a template. If the column is saved in a template, it's hidden; if the column isn't saved in a template, it's removed.
To remove a gradebook column, right-click the column you want to remove, and then click Remove (Hide) Current Column.
Removing a column results in either of the following:
- If you haven't saved the current layout as a template, selecting Remove (Hide) Current Column removes the column from the [Custom] template.
To see the column again, add it to the current gradebook layout. - If you have saved the current layout as a template, selecting Remove (Hide) Current Column hides the column from your current gradebook layout, and the current layout changes to [Custom].
To see the column again, return to the saved template. To remove this column, save the [Custom] template as the template you want to edit. For more information, see Save Current Layout as a Template.
