In-app message editor blocks
Editor blocks are the various blocks available in the Drag-And-Drop Editor under the Build section. This section includes a series of tiles that represent the different kinds of content you can use in your message.
To use them, drag an editor block inside a column. It will auto-adjust to the column width. Each editor block has its own settings, such as granular control on padding. The right-side panel automatically switches to a property panel for the selected content element.
