Hello there,

I'm a novice to customizing Blox templates. In the attached screenshot, I want to adjust the layout to make the cards appear side by side. I also want the titles Signups and orders to appear as a title to the card. Can I have suggestions on how I can modify the attached code to do that?

"style": "",
"script": "",
"title": "",
"showCarousel": true,
 
"body": [
{
"type": "Container",
"items": [
{
"type": "Container",

Hello!

Hope you are doing well.
Kindly ask you to add this styling to the container that includes blocks that needs to be aligned horizontally:

 

"style": {
    "display": "flex",
    "flex-direction": "row"
}

 

More information about the approach:

Please inform if there are any questions.

Best regards,

Hello guys,

I am exploring a similar concept. My example is a bit more simple (for now..)

The script:

{
"style": "",
"script": "",
"showCarousel": false,
"body": [
                {
                "type": "Container",
                "items": [
                               {
                                "type": "TextBlock",
                                "text": "{panel:reload_type}"
                               }
                     ]
              }
        ]
}

I would like to "transpose" {panel:reload_type} as shown in the example below:

I tried @ILLIA 's suggestion but couldn't get there 😕

Ideally, if the above is feasible, i would like to add some other values that will be broken down based on the reload_type

Similarly to a pivot table with a break by, I would say but more beautifully structured..
