When you create multiple columns in a row by Magezon Page Builder, if you take a little notice of General Tab in that row, there exist 2 parameters namely Column Gap and Gap Type. They are the key factors that decide the spacing between columns, which helps readers find your page more spacious and easier-to-follow. In today’s post, you will get a chance to dive in them deeper.

1. Column Gap

In Row settings, Column Gap enables you to create extra space between columns within a row. Specifically, the default value of the gap in Magezon Page Builder is 20. Of course, you can adjust any value as desired.

2. Gap Type

Our General setting has 2 Gap Types: Margin and Padding. Here are some things you should keep in mind. Margin allows us to make space between columns. Meanwhile, padding is what defines space inside a column. Now, let’s check a quick example. To clearly see the difference between these two types of gap, set Column Gap at 100 for both.

Here is the General setting when Gap Type is Padding:

Obviously, Margin creates room between every single column while in case of Padding, the Column Gap is the distance between the 2 elements inside each of them. Remember this! If you want to separate the columns in your page for a clear visual look, Margin as Gap Type does do the trick.
