Is there a way to add a spreadsheet into Rise. Looking to include contact information into a lesson for a Board of Directors Onboarding Course: Name, Position, Number, Email. Doesn't need to have functions or features, just for organizing the info above.
Thanks for the guidance!
Good Morning, Justin.
We don't have support for tables within Rise right now, so here's a quick Peek at how I might handle the task at hand.
Good luck with your project!
Are you going to develop some feature to generate responsive tables with rise?.
Hello Sebastian, and welcome to E-Learning Heroes!
Can you tell us more about why tables are important in your content? This feature isn't on the current roadmap, but we'd love to have a better understanding of your needs.
+1 on support for some form of table/spreadsheet content authoring/generation/import... Image capture from Excel does not always suffice.
Hi Justin,
Have tables been added to the road map since you last posted? They're pretty important for me for displaying numbers or other dense data - an important skill for our target audience is to learn how to interpret data so we often want to team this with a multiple choice question. It would be great to have responsive tables in rise - an image with text doesn't display well at all on smaller screens. On a slight tangent, have there been any discussions about entering equation text in Rise?
Cheers,
Mich
I'll 4th this! Spreadsheets/tables would be huge for us to have! My company does education and review courses for the Certified Financial Planner exam so we use LOTS of tables. Ive been recreating them in other software and saving and importing as an image file, but we have to update numbers yearly, so it would be lovely to be able to make the updates right in Rise instead of elsewhere, re saving, and re uploading. Thanks!
Embedding a Google Sheet (using the generated iFrame code when you publish the sheet to the web and adding to a multimedia embed block in Rise) works pretty well. And the content of the sheet updates automatically when changes are made to the source sheet so it is very handy for dynamic data.
No problem Ashley. Here is a fairly simple example of what can be achieved using Google Sheets: https://rise.articulate.com/share/FFX-hlrYt2x8eD0W
The tables aren't responsive but do still work quite well on smaller screens, especially in landscape mode. Certainly a better approach than using an image of a table I would think.
That is useful. Thanks for posting.
Hello again, Michelle.
Tables and Equation Text are super great suggestions. I’m going to forward your thoughts to our product team. Thanks!
Thanks Kelly-Anne, keep the ideas and information about your needs coming! The more we hear a particular feature request and the more we know about how that impacts your design, the better!
I would also like add my say to a Spreadsheet/table feature being a worthwhile addition to Rise, perhaps as a block component. I am concerned that the effectiveness of using a table as an image may be undermined by the possibly loss of clarity and effectiveness with different screen-sizes and may not be as responsive as compared to a table block component.
