[LON-CAPA-users] Total points summary for two student groups with different sets of problems

[Todd Ruskell]

I've yet to decide if this is a bug or a feature.  It also happens with the
spreadsheet

You've clearly laid out the case for "bug"

The case for "feature" is that it allows faculty to hide a group of
problems and analyze the results before making them publicly available, or
not making them available at all.

The work-around is that in addition to hiding the problems for this subset
of students, you also need to set the weight of the problems to "0" for
this same subset.
