Overview
Every design created in Tenon includes at least one row. Rows are the primary structural element for any email or page you create in Tenon. Any content block that you drag and drop onto the builder stage is placed into a row.
Rows allow your design to be mobile responsive. They adjust their width automatically to fit the screen of the device that the design is viewed on. In other words, there are no hard-coded values applying to row size. You can see this behavior with both the builder stage and export output.
Row Properties
By selecting an entire row, you can apply design elements to several content blocks at the same time. Here's how you can select and work with rows:
1. Hover your mouse over an empty area on the stage, either to the left or right of the content area width.
2. Click outside of the content area to select the entire row.
Once selected, the builder sidebar will reflect several row properties. You can use these options to apply design elements to the entire row. These options are broken up into sections to help you better identify them.
