Add Cropping tool back to all image blocks in Rise.
I thought that the cropping tool was available in the image blocks, but can no longer find it. It still exists in the Labeled Graphic interactive block, Quote with image blocks, and others. This tool is SOO helpful! Please add this functionality back to image blocks where it is the most useful.

Agree! Let's add this efficiency to all image blocks.
Hi BarbLeon-d099f3!
Thanks for the feedback!
I just wanted to clarify that the behavior reported by VickiMurray-Kur is related to a Rise 360 bug we are currently tracking. This bug prevents the cropping tool from appearing, for SVG images added to an Image Block.
However, I do understand having the ability to crop all images, across all Block types in Rise 360 can be helpful. I've shared your request with our product team!
Updating this to Add Cropping tool to .svg images in Rise, if possible. That's why I couldn't crop it.
Hi VickiMurray-Kur!
Thanks for providing the update!
The inability to crop SVG images in a Rise 360 Image Block is related to a bug we are currently tracking. No worries! I've included your voice in the bug report so we can notify you as soon as a fix is in place.
Thank you for your patience. I'm sorry if this has been slowing you down!
You’re right, the cropping tool is limited in Rise 360 image blocks now. A workaround is to crop images before uploading using a photo editor, or use blocks like Labeled Graphic where cropping is still available. For a long-term fix, the best step is to submit a feature request to Articulate’s team so they can bring the tool back to all image blocks.
Reintroduce the cropping tool to all standard image blocks in Rise, just like it currently exists in Labeled Graphic and Quote with Image blocks. This would ensure consistency across the platform and improve the user experience by allowing quick, in-app image adjustments.
Until it's added back, a temporary workaround would be to:
- Use the Labeled Graphic block to crop the image as needed.
- Take a screenshot or export the cropped version.
- Re-upload it into the desired image block.
But ultimately, restoring native cropping in all image blocks would be the most efficient and user-friendly fix.
Hello danielcart,
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this. We do have an existing feature request for bringing cropping back to all image blocks in Rise, and I’ve added your voice to it so the team can see how valuable this would be.
We appreciate you taking the time to share your perspective!
