Content item: text editor
Our text editor is like a blank canvas. When you choose this option, a blank page opens where you can intuitively tell your story. By selecting text, you can adjust the formatting, and it's possible to add images within each paragraph.
Select the line where you want to add your image. Then click on the image icon to the left of the paragraph. Select the image you want to upload. By clicking on the image, you can choose its placement. Will it be full-width or left-aligned? The choice is yours!
Would you rather add your image to the right of the text? Then, make use of two columns; put the text on the left, and the image on the right.
Columns allow you to customize your course module's appearance. You can place images side by side or create columns with text or a combination of both.
Select 'columns' (the icon between the bullet points and the table). Choose whether you want 2 or 3 columns.
You can format the column as you're used to in the text editor. You can make text larger or smaller, add images, or include a quote, etc. You can put as much content in the columns as you wish. Your only limitation is your imagination.
To drag an image from one column to another, select the image, and simply drag it to the other column. It's that easy!
If you've created columns with images and want to add text above or below, you can! Hover your mouse over the top or bottom of the image until your cursor changes. Click your mouse, and you can type text here.
Click on the Table icon on the right to add a table. Automatically, a 3 x 3 table is added.
Want to add rows or columns? Click again on the Table icon and choose to insert a column to the right (or left) or a row below (or above).
