How To Edit Columns
To use the Edit Columns functions you will need to start with Opening The Editor and selecting, at a minimum, the row you want to change... selecting a column in the row will also select the row element.
When editing columns you are actually editing the row to change its column layout.
Clicking the Edit Columns action button will open the "Edit Columns" window.
The Edit Columns function allows you to change a number of properties related to size and position of the columns. The position of the columns can be changed by using the three-line icon to the far left of the column row to drag and drop the columns into the order you want to use.
The relevant size of the column can be set for common browser/viewport sizes -- Phone, Tablet, and Desktop devices. Each type of device is managed separately.
Each device size can be set using the drop-down selector and a pre-defined list representing fractions of the row for the specific column.
You can mix and match the available sizes to create more diverse column layouts aside from the default equally divided space. In general, the column sizes used should add up to a "Full" width (or multiples of Full widths - see the "Phone Size" for example).
