Working with rows

Rows are the fundamental building blocks in the Email Builder. Each row provides a flexible container for organizing your content and offers a wide range of customization options to help you achieve the perfect layout for your email.

Core functionality

Core functionality

2. Adding & removing elements to/from rows

Drag and drop any basic email element into a row container. Once placed, you can adjust its settings and styles.

If you remove an element from a row, it returns to the general email settings panel.

3. Element settings inside rows

Click on an element inside a row (content area) to open its specific settings in the right sidebar.

4. Empty row hover

When you hover over an empty row, quick-add buttons for image, paragraph, and button elements appear.

Note: If the row is too small to fit these buttons, they will not be displayed.

The row settings are divided into two tabs, one for general configurations and one for individual column settings.
