Hanging Indent in Rise

Welcome to the community! 

While there isn't a feature that explicitly adds a hanging indent available at this time, I've shared your insight with our product team!

There are a few ways to accomplish that, though!

• When creating your lesson, click on Custom Lesson Block > Text > Paragraph and add the cited work(s) in its space. Press the Spacebar or Tab key to indent. Here's a quick course with a Peek I mocked up to show you how!
• Another option is to cite your sources in Word, and then use the Attachment block to upload it to your Rise course. You can find this option by clicking on Custom Lesson Block > Multimedia > Attachment–more on this here!

Let me know what you think! Additionally, feel free to share any other thoughts you may have here or through our Feature Request form – we're all ears! 

Unfortunately, relying on spaces to accomplish the look of an hanging indent only works if you think all of your viewers will be using a computer screen. The second the screen size shrinks, you just end up with oddly placed spaces and no hanging indent.

I'm having the same issue. Any forward movement on adding this functionality?

Hello, Rebecca! Thanks for letting us know you need additional paragraph formatting options, like hanging indent. we're tracking this request, so I'll add your vote to the list!

Please add this feature. Why have the button to indent inside a table cell if it doesn't hold upon publish or preview? Thanks!

Thanks for bringing this up, Ashley. I see the same problem on my side. It looks like the indent disappears from a table cell when you preview or publish the course.

I'll share this with our Product team to begin looking at next steps for fixing this. 

I am developing a huge 90-course project for a school that requires the use of hanging indents.  I desperately need this feature!  No other "hack" works in any consistent way.

I would like to upvote this. I need the ability to add hanging indents for references in accordion blocks!

Same here, I am developing a course to teach students how to properly reference academic sources and could really do with this feature. 

Another vote- we use indents to 3 levels regularly and this is very problematic. Any updates?

No updates yet, Athena. Thanks for checking in! 

Any updates?

Hi Steve! No updates yet. We will update this thread once we have information to share. In the meantime, you can also  check out our roadmap here.

I would like to vote for this feature. Because Rise is responsive, adding spaces at the beginning of the second line won’t work. 

I would also like to up-vote this feature.

In order to provide content (in this case references) within a course that is reflective of your expectations for your students (using APA) we need this.

I'm struggling with creating hanging indents in the transcript of SToryline.  Anybody know a way?  It's required by the client to follow the style sheet and that's what's called for.   If not, please add my vote to an enhancement!
