Flash cards size
Hi, can you please look into adjust the formatting controls on text in the flash cards. At the moment there is such a small space to write text and most is lost in unseen borders. There are also many occasions where the last line of the text starts to fade out but it is not long enought to activate the scroll bar, so you can never see the words fully.
Can we look at adjusting the size of the box when is flips so there is no scroll bar as this is a pain on such a small space, or adjusting the margins or font formats easier. I realise the idea would be nt tohave too much text but with large margins it's hard to manage.

I'd also like to see an option to remove the hover effect for flashcards that washes out the text. While I believe the intent is to indicate that it's clickable, if a learner clicks on a flashcard chances are they are not going to move their mouse to a different location right after clicking and so when the new text is displayed it's shown with the washed out effect which is difficult to read.... not a good user experience. Hoping this effect can be removed, or at least an option provided to disable it. I've submitted a feature request for this.
Hi Mark,

I would like to second this, I also found this issue. Not great.

Hi Tilt User1 and Okland,
Thanks for your sharing your +1s! If we add this to our new feature roadmap in the future, we'll definitely let you know.
Same fading issue happening here.
Hi Sarah,
I'm sorry you've run into this issue.
For now the best way to solve this issue is by turning off the block entrance animations (see screenshot).
Let me know if there's anything else I can do to help. :)
That worked. Thank you!
I also am not a fan of the text fading when you mouse over the image. Going to create a feature request for it, too.
Thanks for your feedback, Annie! It sounds like having the option to remove the text fade on hover would benefit you. I'll pass that along to my team!
There is a workaround to get rid of the text fade on hover, but it requires editing the main CSS file in the published course every time you export from Rise. If you're interested, do try the following steps. If your course was exported into a zip file, you'll need to unzip it first.
- In the published course, open the file scormcontent/lib/main.bundle.css in a text editor. The file location may be different if your course is not SCORM.
- Search for this text:
.block-flashcard__content{opacity:.7}
and replace it with this:.block-flashcard__content{opacity:1} - Save the file.
- Zip the package for your LMS or otherwise deploy as you typically would.
Is there a way to change the overall size of the flashcards? I know if you add more than 2 in a row, they become much smaller. Ideally I'd like to retain that smaller size but only have 2 flashcards -- is that possible? Right now I am using two rows of flashcards to have a 2x2 grid look, but they take up so much real estate. Thanks!
Hi Cat,
Flashcard sizes are not customizable in Rise 360. If you want more control over the design, consider building the interaction in Storyline 360 and embedding it in your Rise lesson as a Storyline Block!
This flashcard interaction template is a good place to start.
If you use a vector image you won't get any pixelation. Unfortunately, bitmap images are based on pixels and whether you scale up or down outside of their specific resolution there will be some degradation.
