I don't know if I missed it, but if there isn't one already, Rise really needs an "undo" option. I just accidentally deleted text from a course I was reviewing and it took forever to find the original text to restore it. A simple undo option would have saved a lot of time.

Seriously, UNDO is the very first thing expected in an editor tool....

Yes, you have 3 seconds to realize you made a mistake and click "undo", otherwise its lost forever .... weird is a good definition

So, if you miss the "undo" in those first 3 seconds, that's it? There is no way to fix after the box fades? I deleted the wrong block and I missed the pop-up... That's pretty frustrating!

In this string Blanca comments that it is hard to see the Undo feature. I want to suggest that the new color scheme used in Articulate products (light Gray) is difficult for anyone to see especially those with less than perfect vision or older (both in my case). Perhaps an overall option to change the view color so it's more vivid.

I just lost a huge chunk of text in a rise text block. I highlighted a word and started to type over it when the editor removed EVERYTHING before it. I am on the chat now with support who indicate that they will let me know within 24 hours IF the devs can recover my lost work. 1. The way the cursor moves around inside a text block without your explicit permission is absolutely ridiculous. Just try inserting a new paragraph between two existing paragraphs in a text block. It will not let you do it. The cursor always moves down to the next paragraph if you stop typing for even a second. Unacceptable. 2. Undo. Ctrl-Z. Are you kidding that this doesn't work? It works in a text block in Wordpress. It works right here in this text box. It doesn't work in Rise. This needs fixed as priority #1. I appreciate that support and the devs are busy and that they're trying to help, but 24 hour turnaround is ridiculous to know whether you have to redo 4 hours worth of work due to a crappy text editor. And, yes, I know, I should have created a duplicate copy of my course before starting to edit. But that is such a hack. Imagine if Microsoft told you that "to be safe" you should make duplicate copies of your Word docs before you started typing in them. Not just save, but make a backup version of every document every time you work on it, just in case Word really screws up your document and undo just doesn't work. I know I'm ranting because I'm frustrated. But this needs fixed as an absolute top priority. And until that's done, we should not have to wait so long to have the devs be our Ctrl-Z.

I've just accidentally deleted a block in my Rise 360 course, and have been frantically looking for an undo button! It would be great it there was a pop up "are you sure you want to delete this block" option!

  I know this is after the fact help, but one way to assist with accidental losses is to duplicate your Rise course. I know that this should not have to be a solution since this has been asked about since V1.x, and, it doesn't help in an immediate sense, but it might save you from a catastrophic unintended event. C'mon Articulate! You can do this!

I just searched for a way to have an image be a link, and this was requested three years ago. Nothing has been done.

Now, literally 2 min later I search for a way to undo. ANOTHER request from users that is THREE YEARS OLD, with no progress.

These delays are inexcusable, especially considering these requests are not anything out of the ordinary. They actually should have been part of the first release of Rise.

Articulate, I feel, is falling behind other authoring tools. Why are numerous requests that are YEARS OLD not being implemented, especially since so many CUSTOMERS have requested them?

  Hi folks. I hear how frustrating it is to accidentally delete your work and not hit the Undo button in time. I'm sorry there isn't an update right now. We'll post any changes as soon as we can.

Crystal,

My question is...WHAT ARE THEY WORKING ON if not all of these (none) of these requests are being added???

Please take the timeout off the undo button when deleting a block. Suggest a button that says Confirm.

Please, please add an undo option that's permanently available; not just for 3 seconds. I can't believe this still isn't a feature in Rise. It's a basic feature of any authoring tool.

  It's actually been available in almost all software in planet earth since 1971.
