When using Quote blocks is there a way to use « French » style quotation marks rather than "English." By default it appears that only English work for Quote A, C, D, Quotes on image, and Quote carousel. Am I missing something?
Hi Crystal. Thanks for chiming in. I suspected it wasn't supported. I wonder if that could be something included with the Label translations as French isn't the only language that uses different quotation marks. Japanese comes to mind as another one with very different marks.
Thanks for putting in the feature request as well.
Sure thing, Brett. I did a little reading about international quotation styles, and I included some examples in the request. Let me know if you think of anything else!
Hello, I have a related question. Is there a way to eliminate the auto quotes on quote blocks? The carousel is a great interactive tool that I'd like to use--but not with the auto-populated quotes. The card carousel alternative takes up too much real-estate for the text I need to display in my case. Thanks!
Or a way to have just a regular carousel? The process blocks force an introduction, step numbers, and summary which seem to really limit the flexibility of this block. Thanks!
Right now, those are the only options for creating a text-based carousel. Would you be up for logging a feature request to tell us more about your specific needs?
In the meantime, if there’s anything else I can do to help, please let me know!
I would also like to add my interest in this feature request, please. For custom quotes. Or a way to adjust image width in a Text & Image block, so that width takes 75% and image takes 25% of the space. As at the moment this doesn't seem possible, but would make matching the quote layout feasibly if it were.
+1 to this feature request. Either remove the quotation marks from the quote blocks, or allow us to change the quotation mark style. This is very problematic for our French language courses.
I would also like to put in my vote to remove the English quote marks from those quote blocks. I can't use most of them when creating the French version of my client's course. In Canada, this is very relevant as we have two official languages: French and English. Has anything been updated in terms of this in Rise? I would like to be able to use the image-based quote blocks but they are not an option when needing to use French quote marks.

Hi there, Brett. Thanks for bringing this issue up. Currently, quote blocks will always display English-style quotation marks.
I've created a feature request to help us gauge the customer impact, and I'll let you know here if we release any changes!

Other user also shared some useful workaround which I think should be somehow helpful in your case.
