I totally get how built-in thumbnail and transition options would save time and effort in Rise. I’ve passed your feedback along to our Product team. They’re always looking for ways to make authoring easier, so it’s great to have real-world examples like yours. If anything changes on this front, I’ll be sure to keep you posted!
