While developing some courses over the last few months, I've been noting some areas in my text where it would be helpful if I was able to insert a definition if a user hovered over, or clicked on a word. Attached is a bit of an example from an image I just nabbed from Google.
Thanks!
Edit - I did find the link to request a feature and have submitted this as such, thanks.
Have you looked at the labeled graphic block? That would allow you to add a marker where a learner could click for more information such as a definition. You can take a look at the steps here.
Hey Elizabeth! Thanks so much for the reply! Yes I love the graphic blocks, however, while I could inset a graphic block of text, and have it pop up over the word, there are sections of text where it would look visually awkward and break the text flow if I did insert a graphic. I do appreciate that suggestion however. :)
Thanks for adding your voice here! I've seen a few similar requests, so I linked this discussion to the request we have filed with our team. If we add this to our new feature roadmap in the future, we'll definitely let you know!
That would be so incredibly amazing! I am creating anatomy and physiology learning using technical terms within a sentence. As learning progress, I need to use more than one technical word in a sentence (within text). For example, "The rectus abdominus muscles are located between the ribs and the pubic bone anterior to the pelvis." I would need them to hover over 'rectus abdominus' and 'anterior' for definitions as these are used in other places within the course several times. Much appreciated!

Thanks for sharing that use case, Magda! If we add this functionality to Rise 360 in the future, we'll let you know!
