We’ve just released a super-useful new block type for Rise 360: the table block. Now it’s easy to organize detailed data and information in tables to provide more context for learners.
Here’s how the table block works:
We think you’re going to love using this new block!
Thanks, Sherri! Our Support team is lightning-fast, and I see Johnrey already sent you an updated copy of your course with a revised table. Please let him know if you have any questions about what he sent you!
What people need to know is that you shouldn't adjust the column widths
yourself when making a table in Rise. What might look good on your screen
may not on someone else's.
Is there an option to distribute cells (right now only columns, since row height cannot be adjusted)? Also, will there be an update where the row height can also be adjusted?
Hi Joyce! Right now, there isn't a way to distribute cells in a row or column.
You can increase the height of a cell by inserting the cursor at the end of the text in a cell, then pressing Shift + Enter a few times on your keyboard.
Hi Kari! The width of the learner's browser window will affect how the table displays in the lesson. If you'd like a second pair of eyes on your table to be sure it's displaying correctly, let us know! You can open a case here anytime.
I am trying to use this table in the Describe your Course section, (there is an option there to add a table), but when I preview or publish it, the text doesn't fit/is wrapping/makeing other columns smaller. Is there a cure for this? I am on my second module. The first one worked perfect;y so I don't understand the problem now as I'm not doing anything different. Also, is is possible to bring a table saved as a block template into the Course Description? I am writing 10 modules, and need to re-create the table each time in each module.
One thing we discovered with the table block is that adjusting the column widths can result in the tables not appearing how you had hoped. I would suggest trying again and keep the column widths as is.
If you haven't already started the 9 modules, can you duplicate this course once the table in the describe your course section is set up and working?
I'd like to adapt the table block to 3 columns vs the inserted 5 columns but the table tools are not available to me. I can see them but can't delete rows or columns etc.

Hi Mike
I am trying to copy the demonstration (above) to delete 2 columns from my Rise Table block. My dropdown arrows are not working; therefore, not providing me the option to delete a column or add rows.
Hello, Thanks for the answer. I realize we can utilize the layout capability and we do to a degree, however we likewise need to make variety between the way individuals intereact with each course/brand. Assuming we layout all that every one of our courses will appear to be identical and individuals will get exhausted.
I comprehend the reason why you have defaults yet unquestionably giving a basic capability to clients to have the option to change that seems OK. I've placed in many remarks and element demands around this with respect to formating subjects, colors, textual styles and so on.
We have 6 licenses and are making courses for north of 10 worldwide buyer marks and are hoping to grow our improvement capabillity. Straightforward changes to this would help make growing and smoothing out our ability and productivity exceptionally simple.
Hi Anthony, thank you for the answer above Simply select the text in the first cell that you want to edit, then press Shift+Down Arrow or Shift+Right Arrow to select additional cells.
But where to find the merge option after cells are selected?
You can check out my colleague's response here which contains a nice recording on how to merge cells in Rise 360. I also noticed that highlighting cells in a table and then merging them seems erratic in Rise 360. We'll continue tracking the behavior and report back to our engineering team if needed!

I agree and have to day it is not just an issue for Mobile display. Each person's computer changes the text in the cells.

I clicked on the 3-line symbol and I do not get the drop down choices to remove a column. Your video is so fast, I can barely tell what is going on.
Hi Becky,
Click in the column you want to delete. That should open the table toolbar.
Click on the icon with the three vertical lines.
Choose Delete Column.

Is this a glitch?
Hi Liesa,
Just like the Text Editor, the Table Editor is buggy and will randomly stop working.
When this happens, exit the Lesson back to the course level and immediately open the same Lesson again.
That will reload the Table Editor and it will work again.
Use the same steps when the Text Editor stops working.
Thank you…maybe it will work better in the coming days 😊

I filmed a snippet to show you what is happening - https://360.articulate.com/review/content/46e38a80-512b-4119-8a20-7ab57fee5cc3/review
Can you let me know how I can fix this please?
Hi Kerry,
