Custom shape block as new feature

Can we have some new feature in rise to add custom shapes like we have in PowerPoint and can be added with text into this.

  • Thanks for the idea, SibaPrasad! 

    In the meantime, you can create the shape in PowerPoint, then save it as an image. Add the image to your Rise 360 lesson using an image block!

  • Is this feature in pipeline will be a gr8 one to include text in shapes instead of image every time.

  • This is a couple of years old now. Adding text to a shape in PowerPoint allows a screen reader to read that content aloud to the audience. An image of a shape with text does not.

    We also can't use flashcards instead, since they are also not accessible, yet. But at least their accessibility is on the roadmap. :)
