Understanding Editor Modes

Accessing Preferences

To access your Preferences settings, you must first currently be editing a page. See our tutorials on "Creating A Page" and "Editing A Page" if you are unsure on how to get to this step.

Once you are editing a page, select any block to display the upper toolbar, click the 3 dots at the very end of the toolbar.

Followed by the spanner icon underneath to open the Preferences settings.

There are 3 Editor Modes to choose from: "Default", "Clean" & "Minimal". 

Now let's breakdown what each setting does:

What It All Means

Hide Outline: This will hide the outline that appears upon selecting a block.

Hide Column Tool: This will hide the toolbar that appears above a column upon selecting it.

Hide Column HTML Editor: This will keep the Column Toolbar but will hide the option to edit HTML (<>).

Hide Row HTML Editor: This will keep both Column and Row Toolbar but will hide the option to edit HTML (<>) on the row.

Hide Element Tool: This will hide the Middle Element Toolbar that appears when selecting any element.

Hide Element Highlight: This will hide the faint light grey background that appears when selecting any element.

Row Tool Position: This will let you move which side the Row Toolbar appears on, (Left or Right).

Add (+) Button Placement: This will let you move where the blue "+" Button appears when adding a new row. 

Outline Mode: This selects what is outlined upon clicking a block (Row & Column).

Draggable Blocks Without Handle: This provides the ability to move rows by clicking and dragging them, but will remove the option to do so from the Row Toolbar.

Animated Drag To Sort: When this option is checked, it provides an animated visual effect upon dragging rows to indicate where the rows are being moved to.
