Why is it that when grading assignments, when you select the TEXT cursor and write a comment on an assignment, you MUST go back to the toolbar and select the cursor again to write the next comment? I am so frustrated. I am a creative writing professor and Canvas user, new to Brightspace, and this is wasting me a lot of time to have to click the TEXT cursor over and over again. Am I doing something wrong? In Canvas. once you select Text commenting, it stays in that mode and you can continue to write text comments onto the assignment. But in Brightspace, when I write text directly onto the assignment, I must go to the toolbar and select the "T" again to write the next comment. I took a screenshot of the toolbar and the "T" tool for reference. I can't keep doing this. Is there a way to stay in commenting mode to finish one whole assignment? Please help.
