Building an email
When the form opens you'll see an option to choose a spacing pattern to get started. This will pre-populate how many columns you want.
Adding an Element
Once you choose an option, the left-hand nav will change to what you can insert in the columns/rows
Text Box
You can do highly formatted text from bullets to colors. You can also change the background of any cell
Spacer
This is a great way to create a divide between rows. You can change the color and height of the spacer!
Media
Upload a picture!
-
Once you upload the picture you can add a URL to it on the left
-
Hover over the picture and click on the pencil. The left hand toolbar will change so that you can align the image inside the box
Add a Button
When adding a button, you'll have some options:

To change the width of the button go to "Margin" and click the lock button to unlock it

Click the Recess element you want to use

Use your skills from above to play around with the spacing inside the cell to align it, change colors, etc.
