Question of columns, second layer

Hi @lotfreeman – I’d definitely like to help out 🙂 It’s a little tricky to tell exactly what you mean without examples – are you able to share the URLs of pages where you’re wanting to make these changes?

In the meantime – I can offer some general suggestions.

How to remove the space between columns?

If you select the Columns block you’ll be able to change the ‘Block Padding’ setting which controls that space between the columns.

It will show up like this example.

If you can’t see that setting – you can follow these instructions to reveal it.

How can I put a second layer on an image like a cover?

If you use the ‘Cover’ block you can do exactly that – place an image in the background with content over the top.
