Flashcard Stack formatting Text
Are there any secrets to formatting text on a flash card stack. I am trying to list some items, but have to use the trial and error method to get the spacing right and is very time consuming? Any tips?

Hi everyone!
As Alyssa mentioned above, we want to be sure to keep you updated!
You'll be happy to know that we have an update to Rise today:
Enhanced: Text in flashcard blocks can now be left-aligned.
In fact, there are now five alignment options for text throughout Rise: left, center, right, justify, and a new option to return to the default alignment for the selected text. Learn more.
There's nothing to install. New features and fixes are immediately available, though you might need to export a Rise course again to update existing published output with a new feature or bug fix.
All the details on our Rise updates can be found here.

Hello everyone! I am still getting the same issue. My third flashcard is being formatted differently then the rest. Font is larger and centered. Even if I format it using Rise it will not match with the other flashcards. I make sure all text is same size and third flashcard looks smaller now and the bullet point is bigger than the rest.

Hi, does anyone know how to work around with this kind of bug? I have a Flash Card Stack and there are some Cards I cannot change the size of text without the bulletpoints getting much to big.

Hello, I come to you because a Rise user lets me know that using the flashcard text is not always aligned on a map while on the other two card text appears well. He rectifies this and cheating with the lines. What is surprising is that the text does not behave identically from one card to the other. It has the problem in Chrome and Firefox. I did the test in Chrome version 76.0.3809.132 and I do not meet this concern, but rather a concern for sharpness. Has anyone encountered this problem of text behavior? Or advise a browser version?
Hi Gregory,
It sounds like another Rise author on your team is seeing text alignment issues in a Flashcard block, and you're seeing issues with blurry text. Is that right?
Would you be willing to send us your course Share link so we can take a closer look? If that works for you, you can send that to us by clicking here.

Hey, Erin!
Please try highlighting the text, then select the left align button, as shown below. Let me know if that works for you!

Hi Elizabeth, have you tried highlighting the text and selecting left align on the text pop-up buttons? If this doesn't help, can you share a screenshot of what you're seeing so we can better understand what's happening? Thanks!

Hi Svenja,
Currently, there is no workaround for this issue. There are two things that contribute to this issue: font size and how much content is on the card. The font size on a flashcard is determined dynamically by how much content is on the flashcard and the size of the bullet is determined by the size of the font. As a result, the bullet size is determined dynamically too.
Thanks for checking in!
