Creating dividers in rise 360

Hello,

I see a video about designing a divider but it doesn't explain how to upload for use in rise 360. Any advice?

    Hi Suzanne,

    Dividers is a block type found in the Rise Block Library and has four types:

    • Continue
    • Divider
    • Numbered Divider
    • Spacer

    Or are you referring to something else?

  • If you're talking about image dividers, it's just a matter of using one of the image blocks. Most people use the center image.

  • OK, thank you. I thought that was one way. The center image of a gallery of three, correct? It just seemed that there was a way to load a more narrow pre-designed divider or background but maybe that is only for the microlearning?

  • I think most people use either image full width or the image centered. Fullwidth will crop a bit based on the screen aspect ratio. 

    They also make the images wide and short. And then play around with the padding in the settings.

  • Thanks Suzanne for asking the question and thank you Tom for your response. I was scratching my head also.

  • Anyone got any tips for the perfect size / resolution to create divider images? Maybe even the best output to save them as too? I am struggling with them being very pixelated when I upload them.

      Hi EwanLaing-b692c​!

      I'm hopeful our community will be able to share their design tips, when working with images in Rise 360!

      In the meantime, we've designed a workaround to help keep your images looking clear upon uploading. You can opt-out of image optimization on a case-by-case basis by adding _NOPROCESS_ to the name of your image file. The image will upload and display exactly as you've saved it. Also, please keep in mind that the 5GB file size limit still applies, and you may see an increase in your output file size.

      Also, for your reference, this article goes into more detail on best practices when uploading images to Rise 360.

      Have a great rest of your week!
