What is the Structure?
The stripe is on top of the hierarchy of email elements, this means it must contain child elements. A structure is one of them, and it is always present in every stripe by default.
To add an extra structure, click on the "Structures & Modules" icon from the "Content" menu.
And drop a structure to the desired position of your email template.
Each stripe can contain many structures located one under another. In turn, a structure can include up to 9 containers in a row.
Just like other email elements, structures can be saved as modules, moved, copied, and deleted with the help of the corresponding drop-down menu that appears by mouse hover.
Structures adjustment:
Structures settings are available in three tabs: "Settings", "Styles", and "Data".
In the Settings tab:
the structure allows you to add more containers and set their sizes. You can set container size in the structure using parameters in numbers, "stretching" the container to the desired width or equalizing them;
you can adjust the indent between containers;
you can set padding for a structure for desktop and mobile view;
apply "Display Conditions" - it allows you to dynamically change the content of the email/template displayed to recipients after mailing, depending on whether the specified condition is met or not;
specify the stripe type below – HTML, AMPHTML, or both types;
hide stripes for desktop or mobile view if you want some stripes not to be displayed in some versions;
