#2 LAYOUT ELEMENTS

Basic layout elements

A Section takes up 100% of the width of the browser window if you add it to the Body (the canvas of a website).
It’s great for the big horizontal sections of a website.

This is some text inside of a div block.
Section Element

A Container is a 960px block centered in the middle of the browser. Usually most website content is added inside of a Container so that it’s centered. Containers are usually added to the Body or a Section element.

Adding Columns are the fastest way to build a unique website layout. To edit how many columns you want in different devices, just click on the Gear Icon in the top right corner to access element settings.

TIP: First create classes for the text fields and button (apply the same class to both fields). Then change border styles, background color, and add styles for the hover & pressed states. Don’t forget to style the “Success” state for the Form element, found in the settings panel (Gear Icon in top right). 
Typography example

Lakewood Stout

The Dark Beer of Lakewood, Colorado

The legendary stout was born out of the beautiful matrimony of a mountain man and his most beloved thing, the city of Lakewood in Colorado. The mountain man also loved his axe and his single-shot Remington rifle, but not as much as he loved his city. He dreamed of her flowy rivers and majestic mountains. So he named his greatest stout after her. Thus the glorious stout was birthed out of a mountain man’s heart.

“I crafted this glorious beer to express my undying love for my beautiful city.”

- Mountain Man

TIP: Go ahead and add custom typography and styles to the background. Cool tip: If you add typography styles to a parent block, all of its children text elements will inherit those text styles. In CSS this behavior is called “cascading”. 
#4 Layout with CSS

Building web layouts with CSS

Margin & Padding example
Breaking News

Federal Agents Raid Gunshop, Find Weapons

Store owner Steve Witmere previously arrested for blackmarket bazooka trading. Confesses to involvement in Russian mafia.

Among the numerous bazookas found in the gunshop were tens of thousands of illegally obtained paintings valued at at least $10,000. Thats a heavy price to pay for these dumb paintings.

TIP: Start by adding padding on all sides of the main grey block (parent element). Then add bottom margin to add spacing between the individual text elements (children elements). Hint: Hold SHIFT while using the margin/padding control to apply to all sides and ALT to also apply to the opposing side.
‘Display: Block’ examples

This heading is set to Display: Block

This paragraph is set to Display: Block. So it fills the width of the parent window and stacks on top of other blocks. 

Button with Display: BlockButton with Display: BlockThis link is set to Display: BlockThis link is set to Display: Block
Description: Setting elements’ Display Setting to Block will make them stack on top of each other and fill 100% the width of its parent block. Most elements actually have this setting by default. 
Make them ’Display:Block’ yourself

TIP: Select these elements (some are Inline Block and some are Inline) and make them Display: Block so that they stack on top of each other. 
‘Display: inline-block’ example
DownloadEditDelete
Description: Setting elements’ Display Setting to Inline-Block will make the width of the block conform to the width of the contents inside it. That means if their content is small enough they can stack next to each other. You can copy paste the buttons above and edit the text inside to see how it works.

DownloadEdit
TIP: Select the elements above and make them Display: Inline-block so they stack next to each other. You’ll see that the images stack next to the buttons. Tip: Dropping the buttons and images into separate Div Blocks will make them stack on top of each other (because Div Blocks are Display: Block by default).

TIP: First select the text field, make it Float: Left and give it a percentage width (ex: 60%). Then set the button to Float: Left as well and set another percentage width (ex: 40%) so they both add up to 100%. That’s a manual way to force any element to stack side by side.

Description: If you set Position to Absolute on an element, you’ll be able to position it in anywhere inside its parent block. To choose which parent to position inside of, set the parent element’s Position to Relative. Note: When elements are absolute positioned they float above other elements.
