Inline code and syntax highlighting Oct 04, 2021 By Hamish Dewe Has anyone got any experience of creating courses in Rise that use a lot of code? We have a requirement for use of inline code and syntax highlighted code blocks and have yet to find a good way of doing so in Rise. Any ideas would be welcome, especially if you've solved the inline code limitation! Thanks!

Tony Kay over 2 years ago10/12/21 at 5:22 pm (UTC) Yes same here. In a technical course you often just want to reference an example just as Hamish shows above. And ironically this forum allows him to do just that. Our more complex content can't migrate easily to rise without becoming very "clunky".
