Hello everyone, 🎉
I'm happy to let you know we released a new update for Rise 360. This update adds the following feature:
- Improve screen-reader navigation and readability for all learners with adjustable heading levels
Please find the release notes here. There's nothing to install for web apps. New features and fixes are immediately available, though you might need to export your Rise 360 course again.
Let me know if you have any questions about this update or the new feature!
Hi Josh!
Great question!
I can confirm that three is the maximum amount of Headers available for a Rise 360 lesson. Testing this out on my end I observed Header 1, Header 2, Header 3, and then the lesson moved to 'Paragraph Text'.
I’m looking forward to seeing any workarounds found by our talented community members!
Thanks Steven.
Josh, the best I came up with is bolding text and adjusting font size to looking like these heading levels, I assume that's what you ended up doing. I mention it with a basic demo at the end of the video I posted in this other thread.
Just chiming in here, but I think having more than three heading levels would be a much needed addition to Rise 360. I'm thinking five (5) would be a great number.
Like Josh said, this would be preferred over just bolding and resizing text to simulate headings 4+.
@steven is this something that is on Articulate's roadmap or if not, can we feature request this?
Thanks!
I agree, most organizations with typography guidelines have headings 1-5 specified. Ideally you could add the heading block and select your own heading level. But right now in Rise there is a block for h2 and a separate block for h3, so this would be a major change for the platform.
Hello Lee,
Thanks for sharing your thoughts regarding adding more heading levels in Rise 360! It’s not currently on our feature roadmap, but I’ll be sure to update this discussion if our team decides to reroute.
Correct. The way I have band-aided this is I have customized my own lower (higher??) heading levels and saved them as custom blocks so that I don't have to recreate them each time or remember what font size I had made them.

Let me know if you have any questions about this update or the new feature!This is great Eric, although it appears the headings in 'paragraph with heading' and 'paragraph with subheading' are still locked into using h2 and h3, to use anything else you need to make a new paragraph and then change the 'paragraph format' to change the paragraph to a heading h2 h3 h4 h5. But paragraphs are not headings, they are a different element altogether. So the labeling is a bit counterintuitive.
I agree with Phil. I was initially looking for this option (to change heading level) under the Heading and Subheading blocks. It makes no sense to have this option in the paragraph block. I'm excited for this change, it's just in the wrong block!
Hi Eric. I am not seeing this update with option to change heading levels in my Rise courses. You say above it will appear automatically in the web version. I have seen it demonstrated in a recent Rise webinar but not sure how to access it.
Hi Jo,
Create a text block.
Select the text.
When the text formatting toolbar opens, select the Paragraph icon.
Select the Level from the drop down list.
I am not seeing this update with option to change heading levels in my Rise courses - Eric states above that it will appear automatically in the web version. I have seen it demonstrated in a recent Rise webinar.
