When bulding courses in Rise I've noticed that it's impossible to change size of the header space (top marigin) or font size of the lesson's title. What I woud like to do is to get rid of all the empty space between the title and the first block of content. In the attached phot I marked the areas that I want to be able to edit. The final goal is to avoid scrolling down the page when I insert a Storyline block to Rise or just any other block of content or interactivity. I already turned off Previous and Next buttons from navigation and removed all padding from content blocks but it's still not enough. Does Articulate360 team consider adding such functions for editing marigins? Thank you

Hi Monika, Thanks for reaching out here! I know a few other folks have requested to be able to change the padding and margins within their Rise course, so I'll add you to that feature request! I'll let you know here as soon as I have any more info.

Another vote here. It would help a lot to be able to customize section headers, add a color or photo to its background, etc.

Thanks for adding your votes, folks. We’re building a way to hide the lesson header. Yay! We’ll keep you posted on when that’s available.

Hey all, I totally get your frustration with the white space in the Lesson Title Header. The good news is that you don't need to wait for Articulate to implement any customization options (although that would be ideal). In the meantime, you need to make one super tiny edit to one of the output files (the CSS stylesheet). Essentially: open the Lib folder open main.bundle.css edit line 58: ...... {.lesson-header{padding-bottom:4.5rem}} I find that changing this to 1.5 from 4.5 (a reduction of 2/3rds) does the trick for me. I may also see if I can disable the Header completely via CSS, but not sure quite yet. I'm currently looking at developing single lesson activities in Rise, and then incorporating them as standalone items, mid-lesson, into longer form content via iframes. PS - please ignore my current account name. I need it to appear a certain way at the moment for a client, and my Rise account details seem to be directly associated with my profile display here on E-Learning Heroes.

Quick follow-up. It looks like the easiest way to hide the Lesson Title Header entirely is as follows: open the Lib folder open main.bundle.css edit line 58: find ".page__header-container-header" and add "display:none;" as one of the properties of that element

Rise - change size of headers and lesson titles

Add me - my client wants less real estate and white space at the header and I can't change it. This would improve typeset design hugely for me!

Please add me to this response. I had a tough meeting with a fortune 500 company today. They absolutely loved the way the course was presented but they were not happy with the way their image/brand was presented in the course preview block. Marketing within these big companies are real particular about that and I think we all know why.

What they are looking for is their name and logo presented in the first line and the course title in the second line. You can make these adjustments, at least with the text, in edit mode but we know it will not appear that way when previewed or exported. I was able to side step the issue at the time because I didn't have a solution. Then, I found this thread. No client wants to hear "Well the tool doesn't allow for that." Then I guess you are using the wrong tool.

I know there are a lot of enhancements on the drawing board but I hope this one gets the attention it deserves, almost to the extent of a beefed up block. I have spent a great deal of time selling how Rise presents their course complimenting the capabilities of Storyline. Although, it doesn't matter how slick and clean the course is presented. If they are not happy with the way their image is presented in the Course Preview block, the rest doesn't matter.

I am praying for the best next week and hope they don't decide to go a different direction.

Hey Phil,

I really appreciate that insightful feedback. I know you're stuck between a rock and a hard place, and it doesn't reflect well on you as the course designer. I've shared all of this valuable information with our Rise product team to be considered as we make plans for future Rise enhancements.

  Please add me to this request, as well. Sure would be helpful to have more control over the header and font size of the lesson titles.
