Grading Scale (Letters) Show during grading of Assignments

I have some professors who would rather see the grading scale rather than the points possible when grading the individual assignment, i.e. when trying to grade an assigment the drop down would show A, A-, B+, etc, instead of 100/100, 99/100, 98/100...

Is there a setting to do this or is it impossible?  If there is a setting, does it have a the ability to choose which side of the grade it falls on.  Like for an A, would it mark it as 100 or would it mark it as a 97?

The reason I am trying this is because really we grade on the 4.0 scale.  While our assignments have point totals, we grade them almost entirely on the 4.0 scale.  If someone has figured out how to change everything over to the 4.0 scale, I would much prefer that then trying to do this work-around.  Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,

Did you figure out how to convert the letters to a 4.0 scale?  Some of our instructors use this method as well.
