Select a Columns block.
In the Primary tab of the Block Inspector, open the Settings tab.
Manual Grid
When all Auto properties are deactivated in the Grid Settings of the columns block, the grid layout will rely on a fully manually created grid layout through the Grid Editor.
Auto Grid
The Auto Grid property allows you to define whether the columns block should automatically repeat the layout that is used for the first row over to the next rows (if there are enough column blocks).
With Auto Grid selected, the module button allows you to add the number of modules you set for the row. A module can be thought of as a placeholder for your column blocks.
You cannot add more modules than the number of fractions you have set.
When the Auto Grid property is active, only the first row of the layout built in the Grid Editor will be used as a pattern. For this reason, Cwicly will not apply/modify your layout if you have set more than one row to the Grid Editor.
Auto Template
The Auto Template property allows the browser to handle the responsiveness of the Columns layout, showing fewer columns on smaller devices, and more columns on bigger devices.
The Auto Template property will only appear if the Auto Grid property is active.
