Rise: Drag and drop

Hi, Martin. It sounds like you are having some trouble with a Sorting Activity block that you've already created. First, be sure you're editing in a supported browser. When you edit the lesson and click on the block's Settings, what do you see? Is there any change if you clear the color formatting and start again?

If you can attach a screenshot, I'll be happy to help with next steps!

Hi Crystal, thanks for your help. Yes, I'm having a little trouble. I have it saved in templates and I just selected it from the existing templates but it didn't seem to want to function the way it should. I use Chrome and I'm on the latest version. The colour formatting is acting very weird. If I delete the grey background, it automatically resets it to grey. If I delete some of the letters, currently I have only 'f' in the colour field and the grey disappears but so do the category objects. I hope that is a coherent explanation, it is quite strange behaviour.

Hi Martin,

Hmm... that does sound strange! I think that the quickest way to resolve this issue is to have our Support Team take a look. You can submit a case here.

In the meantime, if there's anything else I can do to help, please let me know!

can you put a colour background on each of the boxes in the sorting activity??

I haven't been able to achieve that Sandie. I think the choice is one colour that fills the background of the categories. The categories are then distinguishable by a dotted line and a shading. Nice idea though as it would look nice. With images would be great too.

Thanks for the ideas, Sandie and Martin!  I'm happy to pass along these suggestions for you!
