Block (Div)

The Block tile is a Flexbox Div pre-set to the div tag with display: block — the simplest wrapper. It doesn't arrange its children on an axis (that's Flex/Grid); it's normal document flow, so it's the piece you reach for to group a few blocks, put padding or a background around one thing, or wrap content you'll style as a unit.

Layout

OptionWhat it does
HTML Tag (html_tag)div for this tile. Switch to section / article / aside if the wrapper is semantically one of those.
Display (display)Block for this tile — normal document flow (children stack as they naturally would). Switch to Flex or Grid to arrange children on one or two axes (see Flexbox / Grid).
Content Width (content_width)Optionally constrain the block's content to a centred max-width (named or custom); Inherit leaves it full.

Because Display is Block, the arrangement options (Direction / Wrap / Gap / Justify / Align and the Grid settings) don't apply and are hidden — switch Display to Flex or Grid to reveal them.

Also on every tile

The Block shares the full Div option set — see Flexbox (Div) → Options every tile shares for details:

  • Styling: Background (color / gradient / image / video), Border / Box Style, Backdrop Blur, Min Height, Aspect Ratio, Blend Mode, Clip Shape, Edge Fade, Text Alignment, Margin & Padding.
  • Child placement (how the Block sits in its parent): Width Override, Grow to Fill, Prevent Shrinking, Flex Basis, Min Width, Align Self, Order, Grid Column Start — every one per device.
  • Responsive Collapse, Animations, and Advanced (CSS ID / class / custom CSS / visibility / dynamic content).
