Rise Matching - Truncated Text
When using the matching knowledge check or quizzing feature, there appears to be a character limit on the match objects. Is there any way to increase this? I'm working with medical education and sometimes the descriptions in these are quite long.
I'm able to create what I need in Storyline, but it would be so much better to create a multiple activity lesson in Rise.
Thanks,
Derrick
Hello everyone, ๐
I'm happy to let you know we released a new update for Rise 360! This update adds the following feature:
- Eliminated character limits for matching knowledge check block entries
There's nothing to install for web apps. New features and fixes are immediately available, though you might need to publish your Rise 360 course again.
Let me know if you have any questions about this update.
Hey, Derrick! Sorry that you're running into an issue here.
To ensure that Rise 360 matching knowledge checks look awesome on any device, choices and matches have a 90-character limit. If you have time to log a feature request and tell us more about your specific needs, that would be super helpful!
Let me know if thereโs anything else I can help you with.- andrewdonaldCommunity Member
Hi There! ~ I noticed/counted the 90 character limit per matching question as I'm having the same challenge using this question type for French courses.
Thanks for your feedback, Andrew! We truly appreciate hearing how we can improve your experience in Rise 360. I'll pass this along to my team!

I am experiencing the same issue as well. I will submit a feature request.
Thanks, Angie!

Yes, please extend the character limit for these questions! Like Derrick, I work with content that can be quite long, so it'd be nice to have either unlimited characters or scrolling text in these boxes.

Agreed, there should be an option to extend the character limit.

+1 for me for extending the character limit.
- AthenaHussCommunity Member
+ another! I do technical training and have long questions at times. Another option would be adding a question with a drop down menu!

Is there any other way to create a matching activity that does not involve Quizzmaker? That matching activity looks very outdated. The one in Rise has a modern and clean look but the character limit is a problem. I tried converting to a sorting activity but I had the same problem with character limits. Please give me ideas, thank you!
Hi Edith! You can create your own customized matching activity using a Storyline 360 drag-and-drop slide. Then, embed it in Rise 360 using a Storyline Block!

The storyline block cannot be the answer for everything - it defeats the purpose of Rise being mobile friendly and the SL blocks are not super mobile friendly. The character limits need to be increased.

I did, thank you! I'm not sure how to share it in case anyone would like to get a copy. It's not anything super fancy but it does the job. You will receive a message when the answer is correct. I want to give credit to the website that published this and has a step by step guide on how to do this. https://www.gaapdynamics.com/insights/blog/2019/06/18/create-a-freeform-matching-interaction-in-articulate-storyline-360/
