Gradebook: Collapse/Expand According to the Assignment Groups

[MiguelMontanez]

I would like to have to option of expanding/collapsing the items in the grade book by assignment group. Canvas currently provides the "subtotal" score per assignment group (it shows the columns at the end of the grade book). My grade book is crowded since I have one homework set per section: eight sections per chapter, on average, and four chapters to cover. Collapsing the "columns" based on the assignment groups provides a quick glance of the grade book without scrolling all the way to the end of the grade book to see the sub-totals.

I currently have a workaround. I create a "fake" assignment group with 0% weight. Then, I create one assignment item with the "do not count toward final grade" option and add it to the "fake" assignment group. Finally, when in the grade book, I select View -> Filters -> Assignment Group & select the "fake" group in the "Assignment Group " pull-down menu. My grade book shows the one fake item and the other assignment groups collapsed. 

Thank you for your consideration.
