Insert images in line in text
There seems to be no way to insert an image in line in text in Rise like this:
Click the search icon.
Or am I missing something?

Hello! I would also like this feature added. In my case, there is an icon/button that users must click. Yes, the labeled graphics are great, but in this case, it would be better to just insert a tiny image in line with the text.
Thanks for sharing that use-case, Annie! We'll let you know if we add this feature in the future!

I agree with this need. I'm writing a help file, and all I need is one tiny image inline with the text to highlight a certain button in the tool I'm using. Putting a separate block that is wider than the rest of the text ruins the look of the page.

You could always use the Windows key+fullstop/period option to open the emoji menu then search for your image 🔎👁🗨😁👍

Can I put a yell out for Font Awesome to be packaged with rise. PLEASE.
Its such a powerful instructional and design tool - I'm amazed its not able to be kitted with Rise. Adjusting the css file after you've exported isnt ideal as you need to test the icon set and display comes through before the export.The emoji's are very 80's/ancient looking and I'm from the 80's ;)

Ohh I love Font Awesome! This would be an awesome addition!
Thanks for contributing, Mata. Those look like fun icons! We'll let you know if we make a change that will help.
PS - I'm from the 80s, too, and I'm trying super hard not to be ancient.

While I'm at it, can I also do a shout out for more edit capability for font styles in the settings. You can currently obvs just set the heading and body fonts but nothing for bullets or anything else. Makes for meagre styling and everyone's course looks like everyone elses - ie a Rise course.
I use inspector to manually inline styles, but its fiddly, takes up time and sometimes you cannot change as its output at runtime.
So my wishlist:
Develop settings to include:
- Implementation of Font Awesome as linked web font
- And/or able to implement a linked external css file (I reckon the developers will say 'heeeeell noooo' haha- and I understand why as it can ruin many things..
- Provide unordered/ordered list colouring and sizing and font-iiing
- Ability to reduce down the over bloated rem margins - particularly around img+text, storyline files ---why soo much maaaaaargin?
- Thank you
Awesome, thank you!

+1 to being able to inline images to text. Surprised this wasn't there
- AnnetteKainCommunity Member
I agree - I copy/pasted a chapter from a training manual and none of the pictures copied over, and I can't add them either! Very frustrating.

I've also added an enhancement request for this. The use of emojis or alt+ images has been helpful but only goes so far when referencing the custom icons that are seen in our software training courses.

If anyone is coming to this thread still, emojis do work in line. You can search for ones you need here and copy/paste inline if you're working from a computer:
One downside is that the emojis will render differently depending on the learner's system they are opening the course from (Mac users will see Apple emojis which differs from Samsung which differs from Microsoft, etc). Emojipedia does a good job showing you what those different emojis look like so you can at least make sure they're similar enough to use.
Update: I also recently discovered, Windows 10 does have an emoji window! To use it: During text entry, type Windows logo key + . (period). The emoji keyboard will appear.
