Spacer

Blank vertical space between elements.

On this page

The Spacer adds empty vertical space between two elements. It is useful for a one-off gap, for example extra room above a closing call to action. For regular spacing, the container's Gap and padding are better: they keep spacing even and adapt per device without extra elements.

Add a spacer

  1. Insert it

    Open Insert in the left panel, find Spacer under Basic (or type spacer in Search widgets) and drop it between two elements.

Tips

  • Prefer gap and padding. Set Gap on the container (Content → Layout) for space between all its children, or padding in Design → Spacing & position for space inside it.
  • Use variables. The { } button next to Space (Use a design variable) picks a spacing variable from the Design System, so spacing stays consistent across the site. See Sizes & layout.
  • Smaller on phones. Large spacers waste screen space on mobile; reduce them per device.
