Newspaper columns

@doobox, your idea is better than mine! I was using CSS.

div {
column-count: 3;
}

Just tested adding the Blocs class card-columns to a paragraph, looks good.

@Jannis is there any way to set the number of columns using this method?

Change the CSS class.

Sorry Jannis to what?

card-columns is a standard CSS class from Blocs. Either overwrite its style definition, or create a new CSS class. This is the definition of the standard class:

    {
        column-count: 3;
        column-gap: 1.25rem;
        orphans: 1;
        widows: 1;
    }

Does this have to be entered in the page settings code section?

Nice, I will send you the bric, if you want to test,

Sneak peak at the options with Column flow, that gives you a lot of control without writing code, plus more advanced options if you want.

If you disable Smart Flow, you can customise for specific elements

Also, besides our usual bric colour options, there is a non-destructive on canvas outline that colour syncs with the bric. Handy if you have multiple instances and layouts on a page. You can toggle this on or off.

Looks like you have done an amazing job with Column Flow Pete. Well done, I can’t wait to try it out in my current project.

Thanks all,

So far, great feedback from those who are testing, including that it is working well within Volt, which is fantastic.

I just need to made a video, and then it will be released. :grin: :heart:

Thank you @Bootsie :grinning:

I just realised I hadn’t added the example project to Gumroad. I’ll do that once I get home and send you a copy also.

Hopefully I’ll get the video recorded tomorrow.

If I didn’t already own 99% of your Brics, I would have purchased this. :smiley:
Thanks for making it 100% with the new Column Flow Bric.

Hey @PeteSharp, do you have plans on making a video on Column Flow and uploading it here?

As above :grinning_face:

Yes. I usually like to get all this squared away before launch, but nature of the job, things pop up.

I like your math :smile:

I pushed Column Flow out so it would be in the Creator Bundle. Since that price is only going to be valid until 1st march. :grin:
