How do I set the assignment Submission Type to default to No Submission instead of Online?

Hello @JoshuaEggenberg - my experience is that when I create a new assignment, Canvas recalls the last assignment I created for that course and presents that submission type. I see this within the course I am working on but the behavior does not transfer from course A to B, for example. That said, once I create an assignment using 'the 'No Submission' submission type in the next course I am working on, then that is the new default for that course.

Are you seeing this as well?

From the guide:  Assignment settings are persistent; they default to the options you used when creating or editing the previous assignment in the course. Based on prior assignments, one or more of these options may already be selected for you.
