Cody Coursework advertises that you can create assignments based on over "1300 existing problems". How can I do that? I believe what u have shown allows me to copy an existing problem that I have created. I want to copy a problem created by someone else --- in particular some of the pre-existing problems?
Thank you!

Currently, you can go to Cody on MATLAB Central and copy those problems manually. We are working on improving the workflow to make the copying easier from Coursework itself.

Fair enough --- but you really should change the marketing of Cody Coursework when you say you can build assignments "based on over 1300 existing problems". The copy-paste approach is pretty painful, given that you have to copy description and test cases separately, not to mention the wasted effort of asking faculty to independently copy-paste. I like the system, but you need to be more transparent, otherwise folks start to wonder what else isn't really implemented yet.

Do you mean adding an existing Cody Coursework problem to an assignment? If so, when viewing a problem you will have an option to copy the problem to an assignment. Find the following screenshots:
