Edit text style/format in Rise matching quiz question
Hi there,
I'm needing to use the 'subscript' text style option for my matching question (on the element 'CO2') but no options to edit are available like they are for the standard multi choice and single choice questions. Will this feature be added?
Thank you.
Hi Leanne. Currently, there isn't a way to format the text in the choices and matches. We're tracking this request, and I'll tag this discussion to be updated with any changes!
I'm desperate for this to be added too, and have mentioned it a few times on the forum. A lot of the content we work with is medical in its nature and not having sub/supescript on this question type in the quiz causes a lot of headaches as we have to tell our clients they can't have what they want/need for their content to be accurate.
To me this seems like a relatively quick fix that would make a lot of Rise users happy.
Thanks, David. We'll bring this up with our team again. If anything changes, you'll be among the first to know!
Hi guys. Is there any update on this please? It would be really useful to change the styles of the matching questions!
Thanks
Hi Mark. We won't be adding the text editor to this question type for the foreseeable future. Because we maintain a default size of those matching elements, we don't allow the text formatting options (size, style, and position) that you see in other text blocks. We default to fixed fonts for this question type.
I realize this restriction can be inconvenient for specialized text, and we're continuing to track users who tell us they need this ability. We'll continue to update you with any changes.
Commenting to follow this thread.
Increasing the default size of the text in these matching questions would be a massive help.
I have used them to quiz learners on the meaning of a logical symbol = != >= <= etc
These symbols appear far too small to the user, especially for learners using a high res screen..Hi there, I'm adding my request for the ability to increase font size for the matching questions too please!
I've increased the font text throughout the resource for accessibility, which highlights the imbalance of the size of the matching activity text that I can't change..
I have the same problem with subscripts in headlines in rise. This site could work: https://www.copyandpastesymbols.net/subscript-letter-symbols.html I tested it with headlines.
Hi Michael, thanks! Interesting little tool but unfortunately I couldn't make it work for me 😌
Hi there!
I also need to be able to change the font size.
The text is very unclear in the default option.
When can this change be made?
Hi Hadassah. We don't have plans to add text formatting to matching question types. We'll post an update here if that changes!
There is a website that might be able to help you. It formats input text into different styles with the help of Unicode characters. Here you go https://stylishtextmaker.com/ or you can also try alternatives such as https://fontgenerator.cc/. There is a subscript style present there but with only available subscript Unicode characters.
Hope it helps
