Thank you very much for doing this! For a lesson I took in Rise 360, I experimented with many screen readers. My question is this: I've heard that the block with text over an image may be difficult to read for screen readers, if not impossible. However, I tried one tool and it DID read it. What are your thoughts on this? Shouldn't we avoid using that kind of block? The question arises for a current project, and I am not yet well-versed enough to respond adequately.... but I am learning:-) Thank you for any responses or suggestions!

Hi Steven,
I think you might be referring to when text is embedded in an image, which makes it impossible for screen readers to read. This is not what happens in a text on image block in Rise 360 -- the text and image remain separate so screen readers can read it without any problem.
