Description

I see the grade_report_gradedisplaytype at site level, and there is a grade display setting for each grade_item, but where is the course level setting? Was there one?

the setting is stored in course grade_item - you can edit it there

any better place in UI?

Ah, great.

It definitely needs to be explained better in the help that the display type AND decimals work in this hierarchical way from site -> course category -> sub categories -> grade_items

I suppose we COULD add a new edit pane for Grade Display and put these there but let's see if users want that first.

FYI I had to ask Tim for help in finding this setting, which I think tells you that it needs to be moved from where it is.

In Categories and items I had expected to find it under the Course entry (at the top of Categories and items). I did not think to look under Course total (at the bottom) until Tim came by.

We've just been talking about this.

Petr's making a new page in the view menu, under "Edit", called "Course settings" where these things can be set for the course (and stored in the grade_preferences) table:

  • display type __________ site < course < item
  • decimals ____________ site < course < item
  • aggregation position ____ site < course < user pref

The "Preferences" tab is going to be renamed as "My report preferences" to make it crystal clear.

Also, the aggregation position options will be first and last (not left and right).

  • renamed Preferences to "My report preferences"
  • renamed Site defaults to "Report defaults"
  • rename Change site defaults to "Change report defaults"
  • reintroduced Inherit option to Grader preferences - Nicolas was right, it is not possible to implement preference overrides without it with our current get_pref inplementation
  • new separate option in plugin selector "Course settings"
  • moved displaytype, decimals and aggregation position to "Course settings"
  • created new table grade_settings + related functions grade_get/set_preference()
  • user report now uses grade_seq class instead of grade_item::fetch_all(); added preloading of grade items into grade_grade instances
  • other minor bugfixing/cleanup/improvements
  • aggregation position now first/last

Please note that the Grader report preferences and its defaults must be resaved again - sorry.
