Description

It seems lessons scroll for a set length, whether or not there is content. if the content is complete, there shouldn't be additional whitespace.

If one page in the lesson is long, then all the pages in the lesson will be long. That is just how it is for now. Happy to look at improving this in the future.

So the current solution is A. leave it as is or B. adjust the lessons so that the screens are more similar in length throughout the individual lesson. correct?

Hey Nathan. Is there a fix being worked on for this?

#4 Updated by n8fr8 almost 5 years ago

We are not working on a fix in sprint 5. While I can understand how it might be an aesthetic annoyance and slight usability issue, I think user's understand pretty quickly not to scroll to far. In addition, when you swipe to the next page, it always resets to the top, no matter how far down you have scrolled.

The solutions to pursue in the future, are either 1) reformat content so that pages are all similar length (aka break up long text into multiple pages), or 2) improve the code, such that individual pages can reformat their length dynamically. The #2 option is ideal, but actually quite hard with our current formatting engine.
