Adjusting the spacing in a Storyline module within Rise

Hello. I've created a custom Storyline block that I've inserted into my Rise course but there is too much spacing between the Storyline block and the other Rise blocks currently in the course. Is there a way to adjust the spacing within Rise? I've created a custom Storyline file where there is very little space vertically.

  • It’s really frustrating that Articulate has poured so many resources into building a new AI Assistant instead of fixing this (literally) in-your-face bug.

    I get that the AI Assistant is a potential revenue stream… but come on. Basic integration between Articulate’s own products really should work correctly.

      Hi Lukbarnes,

      Sorry to hear that you ran into this bug. We don't have any new updates to share, but I've added your voice to the bug report so we can notify you and everyone else subscribed to this thread as soon as this changes. Here's how we tackle bugs for your reference.

  • We have the same issue. Too much space and looks ugly. Any chance this can be fixed shortly?

  • You can try to change the slide size, the background color on your player, and rise block to match the slide's background.

      This is something I have done already but it is of no-use, it still appears a lot of space, and as RISE doesn't have the possibility to add links to images it would be very useful to be able to put Articulate content with zero adjustment.

      Hi StephanWhitaker!

      Thanks for checking in on this!

      Our development team is still working on a fix for this issue. I've included you in the bug report, so we can notify you as soon as we have updates to share.

        StevenBenassiI'd like to be notified of this as well. Love adding SL blocks to Rise, but hate that extra space. Thanks!

      I would love to know how this is going too.

  • Hi JuditRdm!

    Sorry to hear you've run into this setback! Thank you for sharing the screenshot!

    I can confirm we have this behavior logged as a bug within Rise 360. This bug causes Storyline Block Padding to still show even if padding has been set to zero. I've linked this discussion to the bug report so we can notify you as soon as a fix is in place.

    Thank you for your patience. Sorry if this has been slowing you down!

    Hi, 

    I have the same issue and I think this should be solved by the development team. I've attached a screenshot to show the space sorrounding the Storyline object even if the padding is set to 0.
    It is a discouraging to say the least ☹️ LOL

  • Hello! I have adjusted the blocks padding on the Storyline module to 0 on the top and bottom. The padding on the blocks above and below the Storyline module have been reduced to 10. It still has this very large amount of white space above and below the Storyline module, which seems to be from that block - not the ones above and below.

    Is there any other way to reduce the padding in the Storyline block?

      Hi Daniel, So I do often reduce the padding for the blocks above and below the Storyline one too. Another thing I recommend doing is making sure that there's not much white space around your slide itself in Storyline. I generally bring my content right to the edges of the slide when I'm creating something for Rise because there will be some spacing once I insert it. I did see that you mentioned that there wasn't much space vertically already though. Could you share some screenshots of what it looks like in Rise now and your slide in Storyline? 

  • Hi Daniel, You can adjust the block's padding (the space above & below the block) by selecting the Format button. You might also need to do that for the blocks above and below the Storyline one. If that doesn't help or you have any questions, please let us know.
