I am having an issue with the mobile adaptation in Rise. It is breaking up text in the middle of words when I use a statement block. I have tested the course on an actual mobile phone and it is definitely breaking the words up as it shows on the preview. I've attached a couple of images so you can see the problem.
Thanks Alyssa for your answer. I was just a bit confused because Ashley said two years ago "the issue with words splitting ahs been resolved" - or was that only for statement blocks?
The Rise course title has a 16-character limit in the sidebar area when viewing the course on desktop. Any additional characters will drop to the next line.
For the matching question, the character limit depends on the browser size. If you increase the width of the browser window, all of the characters will fit on one line.
Hi there, I'm seeing word separations/breaks too first the first time since i started using Rise 3 months ago. I'm seeing this in the desktop preview. Are we closer to finding out the root cause?
Hi Rama! We were seeing a line break issue in Rise 360 earlier today, but now that issue should be fixed. Please close your Rise 360 browser window, then reopen your course.
Let us know if you are still seeing this problem after refreshing the browser!
The issue we ran into yesterday happened in text blocks within a lesson, like the Paragraph block. Can you please share a screenshot of what you're seeing on your side?
From those images, it looks like the word is not breaking in the middle. Instead, the word is moving to the next line because it is too long to fit on the previous line, is that correct?
You’re right, Rise 360 won’t hyphenate a word if it is too long to fit on the current line. Instead, the word will drop to the next line.
Some users have had success with inserting a soft-hyphen by typing alt+0173 in the middle of a word where the hyphen should appear. This workaround only works if you’re using a Windows keyboard. You can read more about this workaround here.
I experienced similar issue of a couple of mystery line breaks in a normal Heading and Text para block. I deleted the blocks and retyped fresh into new blocks and this thankfully worked for me.

Hi Alyssa,
The word wrapping problem in Rise 360 is not resolved.

Sorry for the feedback coming later.
Thank you for the screenshots, Jack.

Hi Alyssa,
I mean that Rise doesn't have a hyphenation function yet.

well, alt + 0173 works well for title and menu, but is hardly conceivable for text with 100 slides.
MS Word works perfectly with hyphenation.

FYI, for anyone troubleshooting in the future.
