Use the Row content type to add a row in the Page Builder stage.

NOTE

If you are making significant changes to Page Builder content, it is recommended that you increase the Admin Session Lifetime to prevent the session from timing out while you work.

Row toolbox

The row toolbox appears when you hover over the row container. The toolbox includes options to move, hide, duplicate, edit, or remove the row. The selection of settings determines the appearance, background, and layout of the row. Additional content elements can be dragged to the row from the Page Builder panel on the left.

Appearance

Use the Appearance settings to determine how content is displayed in the row.

w-600 modal-image

To determine how the background color and/or background image appears in relation to the container and width of the content area, choose the alignment:

table 0-row-2 1-row-2 2-row-2 3-row-2 layout-auto
Option	Description
Contained	The background color or image is limited to the maximum page width that is defined by the theme.
Full Width	Limits the content to the maximum page width that is defined by the theme. The background color and/or image is not limited, and extends the full width of the row.
Full Bleed	The content and background image and/or color are not limited, and extend the full width of the row. Full Bleed can be used only with themes that support the layout.

Enter the Minimum Height for the row. This value can be a number with any valid CSS unit (such as 100px, 50%, 50em, 100vh) or a calculation (such as 100vh - 237px).

For example, you can set the minimum height of a row to stretch the full height of the page, giving you compelling options for full-page background images and videos.
Choose a Vertical Alignment setting to align any content containers that are added to the row (Top, Center, or Bottom).

Background

There are many options for defining the background display of a row. You can apply a simple color or background image, and manage more sophisticated effects.

Background Color

Specify the background color by choosing a swatch, by clicking the color picker, or by entering a valid color name or equivalent hexadecimal value. This setting determines the background color of the row. You can also adjust the opacity of the color.

w-200

You can set the value in one of three ways:

A predefined color name, such as White
The hexadecimal color value for the color, such as #ffffff
The rgba value for the color, with opacity percent, such as rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.75)

If you want to choose a color, click the swatch to the left of the No Color box.

w-600 modal-image

If you click the color box to open the color picker again, the box below the slider shows the current red, green, blue, and alpha values (rgba). The last number indicates the current opacity percentage as a decimal. You can use the slider to adjust the opacity, or enter the desired decimal value.

w-600 modal-image

NOTE

Page Builder also supports a transparency layer, or alpha channel, in background images that can be used to create backgrounds with varying degrees of opacity.

Background Type

A background type can be an image or a video. Page Builder defaults to Image and shows various image settings. If you select Video, Page Builder swaps the image settings with video settings. Both background types are described as follows.

Image type settings

If you set the Background Type to Image, use the following settings to define the background image display.

w-600 modal-image

Background Image - If needed, use the provided tools to choose a background image to apply to the row:

table 0-row-2 1-row-2 2-row-2 3-row-2 layout-auto

Option

Description

Upload

Uploads an image file from your local computer to the gallery and then applies it as the background image for the row.

Select from Gallery

Prompts you to choose an existing image from the gallery as the background image for the row.

img-md
w-25

Allows you to either drag the image to the camera tile or browse to the image in your local file system.

Background Mobile Image - If needed, use the same tools to choose a different background image to be used for display on mobile devices.

Background Size - Set this option to determine how the background image is scaled in relation to the width of the row:

table 0-row-2 1-row-2 2-row-2 3-row-2 layout-auto
Option	Description
`Cover`	The background image covers the full width of the row.
`Contain`	The background image is limited to the width of the content area.
`Auto`	Applies the size from the current style sheet.

img-md
w-250

Background Position - Set this option to determine how the background image is anchored in relation to the row:

table 0-row-2 1-row-2 2-row-2 3-row-2 layout-auto
Anchor point	Position
`Top`	Left / Center / Right
`Center`	Left / Center / Right
`Bottom`	Left / Center / Right

The anchor point is like a push pin that attaches the image to the row at the specified background position.

Background Attachment - Set the attachment type to determine how the background image moves in relation to the scrolling page:

table 0-row-2 1-row-2 2-row-2 layout-auto
Option	Description
`Scroll`	The attached background image is synchronized to move down as the page scrolls. Use Parallax Background to control the scrolling speed.
`Fixed`	(Not available for mobile) The background image does not move as the container scrolls over the image and is fixed at the specified background position.

Background Repeat - Set to Yes to repeat the background image to fill the available space in the row.

Video type settings

If you set the Background Type to Video, use the following settings to define the background image display.

Video URL - Enter a valid video URL. Valid video URLs can be links to:

YouTube videos: https://youtu.be/CoDhMRUUjeI
Vimeo videos: https://vimeo.com/190156113
Valid video files (.mp4 is recommended): https://myvideos.com/spiral.mp4

img-md
w-300

Overlay Color - Select a color to apply a transparent tint to the video.
Infinite Loop - Set to No to make the video play once and stop. When this option is set to Yes (default), the video repeats in an infinite loop.
Lazy Load - Set to No to make the video load with the page, even when not visible. When this option is set to Yes (default), the video loads from the source only when visible on the screen.
Play Only When Visible - Set to No to make the video start playing immediately after it loads, regardless of whether it is visible. When this option is set to Yes (default), the video starts playing only when it is visible.
Fallback Image - If needed, specify an image to display on the screen before the video loads and if the video does not load for some reason.

Parallax Background

Use these options to control the speed of a scrolling background image or video in relation to the scrolling of the page. The background can be set to scroll more slowly to create a sense of immersion.

Set Enable Parallax Background to Yes.
Enter the Parallax Speed as a decimal value between -1.0 and 2.0.
