Rise 360 Custom Blocks Responsive
Hi. The new Custom Blocks feature in Rise is brilliant however, they don't seem to be fully responsive, like the rest of the Blocks in Rise. To try and explain what I mean - when you resize the screen, the whole block just gets smaller. This can look a little odd next to some of the other blocks that are responsive. For example, if using a text block - the text is responsive and adjusts accordingly, whilst maintaining a legible size. But any text in a custom block is not responsive - it stays to the same layout and just gets physically smaller, which can make it difficult to read on smaller screens.
Does anyone have any workarounds for this please?
Just to add - I really like the new features and if the above could be resolved the custom blocks are going to be a brilliant development/tool in terms of design.
Thank you.

The custom blocks are not responsive. Like Storyline, they only enlarge or shrink to fit the current browser window.
There is no workaround to make them responsive the way other Rise blocks are.
If most of your audience will be viewing the content on phones, one option is to adjust the blocks you want so the canvas is vertical. In other words, create a tall, "portrait" layout. Of course, that will leave a lot of space on the sides when viewed in a "landscape" mode. But at least the content will be legible.
Thank you.
