Problem with Flashcard grid's size
Jul 31, 2018
Hi,
first of all, well done for the new super feature of the Block entrance animation! this adds a very dynamic mood to every content.
But, unfortunately, and also unexpectedly I think, it has a negative influence on the behaviour of flashcards.
As an example, I am enclosing two screenshots from our course, where the two grid cards, in preview, are much smaller than what they are while editing the course. And this happens with a single card too.
Basically, they have the same (smaller) size as the cards in a grid of 3 or more. But we would like to have them as big as they used to be.
Trying to figure out the issue, my colleague found out that if you deselect the new option Block entrance animation, cards resize in Preview too, getting bigger.
I don’t know why this animation effect should be connected with the cards’ size, but this is what happens and I think that your dev team should know that.
Hoping you will find a solution enabling us to profit from the beautiful picture animation you newly introduced, we wait for a feedback.

P.S. we tried with different browsers and it was the same in Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari.

Hi Rosy,
Thanks for sharing those images here with me! I did a quick test and saw the same thing while viewing the Flashcard block in preview with the animation toggled on/off.
I'll share this with my team and will keep you posted here as soon as we have an update too share!
I encountered the same problem.. Would be awesome if you guys coud fix this issue :)
Hey Michael,
Sorry you ran into this, too! You're in the right place, and we'll keep you posted on our progress. 😁
Hi guys, we've encountered the same. Has there been any update on this?
Is there a way to get a better "stack" for just 4 cards? The 3 on top with 1 below looks odd. Should I be resizing somehow? If I'm missing something, please enlighten me :)
I figured this out... so silly!!
I was just wondering the same: has there been any fix? in the next release maybe? I strongly hope so!
I saw on a demo that someone had 4 flashcards, 2 on top with 2 below. This is done with 2 separate blocks, each having only 2 flashcards. The flashcards themselves will appear a bit larger than they do with 3 in a row. The symmetry looks so much better.
Has there been any update on this issue with the flashcards resizing - we are having the same issue and not want to turn off the block animation feature?

Did you manage to lay out 4 side by side? I was wondering this myself...
Hi Lauren-Grace!
There isn't a way to display four flashcards side-by-side, but you can stack two on top and two on bottom. Would that work for what you're looking to do?
