There is a limit to what I can put on a card, but even if I stay within that limit the last few words of the sentence are cut off the eLearning is used on the phone. What (except for shortening the sentences) can I do?
Hi there, Jessa. Correct, once the text limit is reached, there isn't a way to view additional text on the sorting activity cards, whether it's exported for web or LMS.
Hello, Mandy! Are you using the Sorting Activity in Rise 360?
If so, each item can have up to 80 characters of text.
Because of limited screen space on smartphones, each item can have up to three lines of text when viewed in portrait mode, which could be fewer than 80 characters of text. If you're using custom fonts, you may see fewer than three lines. You can preview sorting activities in Rise 360 and switch to mobile portrait mode to make sure all your text displays correctly.
has this issue been addressed yet? We are experiencing problems with the sorting-activity as well, text is cut off. As most users will do the course on their smartphones it's important that the cards are readable on smartphones. Is there a way to either change settings through LMS (like how many word will show or font size) or do we have to shorten all the text? I would be grateful for some help with this.
Hi Sarah, thanks for following up on this issue. We don't have updates yet but we'll keep you posted if that changes! In the meantime, you can try adjusting your sorting activity to have shorter texts if you foresee that your courses will be viewed on smaller mobile devices. I hope this helps!
Hello - Sorry to revive an old thread, but I was wondering if there have been any fixes to this issue? Much of the text on the sorting activity cards is cut off when viewing on a mobile device in portrait mode. I've tested this using both Safari and Chrome. Thanks!
Hi Garrett, I'm sorry I don't have an update on text limitations with sorting cards. For your mobile users, you could consider adding a note to view the content in landscape orientation for maximum screen space.
What I don't understand is that text is cut-off, but when the card is dropped on the correct target, the text is not cut-off, so it seems that is possible to show the full text on the card on mobile in some situations.
It would be great if this could be fixed because a lot of us creating courses for mobile learning.
If Rise 360 is a responsive tool and advertised with the slogan "Mobile Learning Development Done Right ", it would be good to know what is the exact data limit for sorting activities that will work on all devices.
I hope sorting activity could work on mobile devices same as on desktops, because it is a really cool interaction :)

Hi there, we are also experiencing the same challenge with text being cut off. Has there been any updates to this behaviour?
Thank you
