Text Columns

Usage

Text Columns flows your text across columns like a newspaper or magazine, instead of placing separate blocks side by side. Use it for long paragraphs, editorial copy, bios, or any text that reads well in multiple columns.

The block starts with four sample paragraphs. Replace them with your own headings, paragraphs, lists, images, buttons, separators, or Spacer blocks.

Unlike the Columns block, Text Columns doesn't give you separate left and right panels. Your content runs top to bottom and continues into the next column automatically.

Columns

Sidebar controls under Block Settings:

• Columns: Two (default) or Three.
• Column gap: space between columns, from 0 to 4. Default is 2.

On smaller screens

• Under 768px: one column.
• 768px and up: two columns, for both Two and Three.
• 1024px and up: Three switches to three columns.

Paragraphs and images try not to split across two columns.

Allowed content

You can add these blocks inside Text Columns:

• Heading, Paragraph, List, Image, Button, Separator
• Spacer, for extra space within the flow

For side-by-side layouts with other kinds of blocks, use Columns instead.

Block width

Text Columns supports Wide and Full alignment from the block toolbar and starts at Wide.

Tips

• Use Two for body copy. Three suits shorter snippets or dense reference text on wide pages.
• Break up very long paragraphs. They can leave columns uneven.
• Use Columns instead when an image and text need to sit in their own panels.
