NEW IN RISE: Process Block
Jul 31, 2018
New feature alert! We just shipped the latest new goodie in Rise, the process block.
Now you can add process interactions to the custom lessons you create with blocks. They’re a great way to help learners explore and understand a step-by-step process. And of course they’re beautiful and responsive to any device.
Take a peek at the process block in action:
We can’t wait to see what you create with this new block!

I like this new feature a lot, and the new look. However, in past courses I've often used the Process interaction as a convenient and colorful way to show a series of related things that aren't necessarily ordered. I see we can change the Step label in the settings, but the label retains the number at the end. Would it be possible to add a feature that allows us to remove the Step label altogether so that the Process interaction can be used for unordered collections of things?
+1 for this request.
Same here. It would be really ideal to remove the label completely.
Also, after the latest Process Block update, the text portion of the labels returned to my current projects. I had removed the text part of the label just leaving the numbers, but with the update it added the text part back. It seems I can change the text but I can't remove it. If I leave the step label blank it automatically reverts the label to Step 1, Step 2, etc. Is this correct, or am I missing something?
I'm having the same problem as well, but instead of the grey I need to change the background colour to a different custom colour to match the rest of my course.
I'm using the Process interaction for the first time. Is there a way for me to embed a Continue in the last page of the interaction? The course is largely a "scroll down" navigation format. When we get to this interaction, we are asking the learner to change navigation direction from scroll down to tab left and right which is slightly disorienting. Then, when they tab through the interaction, using the arrows to navigate, they are jumped back into the "scroll down" navigation. That, or they overlook the new buttons on the left and right, and simply scroll down to click the next continue, thereby missing the content. Just trying to figure out a more streamlined navigation experience for my users.
In echoing others comments I would really like the option to remove the label (at least the number) in the process interactive. Is this in the works?
Hi, what is the maximum numbers of steps a process block can have ?
Hi there! Did anyone answer your question about changing the background color? I would love to be able to change the background as well. Thanks!
Hi Ashley,
It's been 5 months since you noted this bug yet I am still experiencing it in my courses. This is unacceptable. We have built 22 courses for a client that are due tomorrow and in our testing have now picked up this bug with IE. The chat rooms are full of bugs reported with both Rise and Storyline and months and years go by without the issues ever being resolved. That is terrible customer service. It means nothing to report the issue if it is never resolved.
You cannot claim to support IE if not all the functionality works on it.
Can you give us an indication of when (and if) this issue will be fixed?
Hi Mandla!
Thanks for leaving us your feedback and sorry that I can't provide you with a further update on this at the moment. We do have this logged and will provide updates here if/when they become available. I'm sorry that I can't provide you with further information than that!
Hi Carol! Currently there is no way to change the background color of a Process block, but it is a feature request we've heard from other customers and have noted. That being said, do feel free to chime in and add your voice by submitting your own feature request here. Thanks! Hope that answers your question.
Hi Sharon, in terms of maximum number of steps - I've gone all the way to 100 steps and haven't reached any limits or had any problems!
Hi Simone,
We've got a request logged for removing the label. Stay posted to this discussion for further updates. We'll post them her if/when they come up!
When these new features are being designed, it would make so much sense to allow the user to change the formatting options (i.e. colours, fonts etc). Why are they so limited in this respect?
Question, I like the process addition to RISE but are there any plans to give the authors the ability to disable the numbering? I could use the block for process flow but having it numbered implies a direct step when in the Petrochemical industry there can be multiple events happening at the same time.
Hi Gavin,
I'm sorry you're not satisfied with the customization options we offer for the process block.
If you have time to log a feature request and tell us more about your specific needs, that would be super helpful!
Let me know if there’s anything else I can help you with.
Hi Juan,
I totally get the issue you're running into here! Unfortunately right now there's no way to deactivate the numbering. It sounds like this would improve your experience authoring in Rise 360. Would you be up for logging a feature request to tell us more?
And of course if there's anything else I can help you with, please let me know. :)

Hi there, I trying to use the Process Block on RISE, which is great. However, I am really struggling as I cannot seem to find out how to add additional steps in the process (as it stands the most I can have is 2, as I dont know how to add any more in). FYI I am using a MacBook, not sure if that will impact??
Hi Angelina
When you click Edit the panel will open on the left of screen
At the very bottom of the panel is a Add Step button
Hope that helps
Hi Mr C,
Thats great, thank you for your help - I managed to find it the same day, but thank you for you help! much appreciated.
Angelina
I'm glad you ended up figuring it out, Angelina. And thanks for jumping in there, Mr C. :)
Any update on showing completion of the lesson with process blocks based on completion of all steps? I'd really like to use it but am concerned users will find it confusing as others have noted, to use downward navigation and suddenly have to go left to right and then down again. Thanks.
didn't realize it was new. I already used it and it seemed to work well.
Hi Katie,
I'm not sure what you mean here. Could you be more specific about what you'd like to see change with lesson completion in relation to the process block?
Let me know and we'll go from there. :)
