Hanging Indent in Rise
Hi,
I'm wondering if there is a way to input a hanging indent in Rise. I am currently working on a project involving teaching proper citation formatting in MLA and APA, and hanging indents are an integral part of this process!
Thanks so much.

Any updates?

I would like to vote for this feature. Because Rise is responsive, adding spaces at the beginning of the second line won’t work.

I would also like to up-vote this feature.
In order to provide content (in this case references) within a course that is reflective of your expectations for your students (using APA) we need this.

I'm struggling with creating hanging indents in the transcript of SToryline. Anybody know a way? It's required by the client to follow the style sheet and that's what's called for. If not, please add my vote to an enhancement!

Please add my vote to this for a hanging indent!
Spaces don't work for different devices and is not correct for user accessibility (e.g., for screen readers etc)

Please please please add hanging indents! I have to put a disclaimer on all my Rise courses about how the program doesn't allow hanging indents but students need to use them! (I'm a librarian, I use and showcase citations a lot in my courses)

There's simple CSS for this if it helps...
padding-left: 22px; text-indent: -22px

Is this accessible?

Would love to know where this feature request is at.
Hi Sherri! Thanks for checking in.
We've submitted a request for the ability to allow for a hanging indent in text blocks. We don't have any news yet, but we'll post updates to this thread if one is available.

+1 for hanging indents, we legal content hence the need for clauses, with letters (which is another issue)

So far, my workaround is creating a .html file and customizing the text that way. I would then upload it in an FTP and generate a URL so I can create an iframe and embed it in Rise. For those that don't have an FTP to upload to, the initial reply from staff is the only alternative I can think of. And even then, tabbing/spacing isn't very responsive friendly. Uploading a document doesn't give the best learning experience either if text formatting (like APA/MLA formatting) is an important topic. I hope this is helpful for folks out there.
