How to create a grid


There are two ways to create a grid. The easiest way is to drag and drop a grid element onto the canvas. To do so:


  • Go to the Left panel -> Elements -> Layout
  • Drag a Grid element onto the canvas


Alternatively you can convert any container into a grid.


  • Select the container you want to turn into a grid
  • Go to the **Right panel -> Inner layout **section
  • Select the Grid icon

How to set up the grid container


To help you make the necessary setup for your grid you can use our Grid helper. To enable the Grid helper:


  • Select the grid element
  • Click on the Grid helper icon above the Grid container
  • Use the + and - ** buttons on the **Right side and Bottom side of the grid container to define the number of rows and columns for your grid\


Alternatively you can add rows and columns from the Right panel -> Inner layout section by adding the number of columns and rows in the respective fields.


To edit the grid container:


  • Select the grid element
  • Go to the Right panel -> Inner layout section
  • Change the alignment of the items and add a gap between items

  • Hover the mouse above a grid cell and click on the + button
  • Use the arrow buttons to expand the grid items horizontally and vertically


To edit grid items:

How to make the grid responsive


To change the layout of the grid for a different device, such as mobile:


  • From the bar above the Canvas, change the media query
  • Select the grid element
  • Click on the Grid helper icon above the grid container
  • Use the arrow buttons to modify the position of the grid items


The changes will only be applied for that media query and smaller. The desktop version will remain the same.
