Change the padding default?

Hi....I agree with all the posters here, and this has now been 4 years. Is there any update to this?? Some way to better control the "paragraph" settings would be so helpful. There is so much wasted space between paragraphs, or between a paragraph and a list or other text item. Some basic text formatting options would make Rise so much better.

Hi Karl, shift+enter works to break the line with no space at all. Shift+enter twice and I am back to 30px padding.

I am certainly open to other options, so keep 'em coming :)

I read all the comments and it seems like all we want is to have a way to change a couple of CSS values for a certain course. Could that be added to the Theme? The same way we choose the default fonts and accent color, we could have the default padding set there. It should be just a parameter passed to a CSS padding property and it seems like it would help many customers.

Hey Janet - I'm so happy that you're enjoying using rise.

We set the default padding to 30px top and bottom based on a lot of testing across multiple devices and with lots of different content. It provided the best balance of white-space and content, providing a great learning experience that wasn't too dense or heavy. 

I'd be curious to see an example where no-padding on every block works best. (Is this for both top and bottom?!) If you can share, that would be great. 

Cool, thanks for sharing Janet. Right, we found that 30px works as a great default but that's why we also created the feature to let you change it. Because in certain cases custom padding makes sense. 

Thanks!

I find that I lower the padding a bit when I have a text block trailing a MM block.  The text looks more associated with the elements that way.  Probably about 50% of my imports...  I find that the single line divider isn't seen by people so the chunked aspect of the page isn't very obvious.  On the other hand, the "continue" block offsets that somewhat allowing users to move from chunk to chunk...

+1 A configurable default would be great. I need to change it every time which is tiresome.

Thanks Thiago and Stuart for sharing your need for this too! We do get lots of requests and ideas here in the forums and also through our feature request form.

It's always helpful to hear feedback from our customers, and we take all of these suggestions into account. In case you're wondering, here's how we manage all of the ideas we receive!

Hi Simone!
