Understanding margins

Modified on Fri, 10 Mar 2023 at 06:43 PM

A Margin is an invisible space around a Module's and Mini-Page's borders. Understanding this feature is important because it will give Mini-Pages a smoother look. They may appear difficult to use initially, but they are very friendly to understand and will provide you with the best support when you want to edit a Mini-Page you created using one of our Templates.

You may have noticed that when you insert large text into some Mini-Pages templates, the text touches the Mini-Page's border; this is where Margins come in handy. Take a look at the following example:



There are two main Modules where we can change the Margins and thus get better results: the Text Module (Textbox) and the Column Module (Container)

Follow the steps below to gain access to the Margin options in both scenarios.
Textbox Margin
  1. Select the Module you want to change by clicking anywhere on it
  2. To enter editing mode, click the Pencil Icon or double-click the Module
  3. Click on Style
  4. Scroll down until you come across with the title Margin
  5. Increase the Left and Right amounts by the same amount (We recommend remembering this number to apply it to other texts so the Mini-Page looks even smoother)




Container Margin
Container Margins are even more powerful because containers have the highest hierarchy in any Mini-Page, as anything within them is affected by any changes made to them, which means that if their Margins are changed, everything inside them will follow the same rule.
  1. Click on any area of the Container you want to modify to select it
  2. To enter editing mode, click the Pencil Icon or double-click the Module
  3. Click on Style
  4. Scroll down until you come across with the title Margin
  5. Increase the Left and Right amounts by the same amount (We recommend remembering this number to apply it to other Containers so the Mini-Page looks even smoother)
