Using Show & Hide:


When editing a responsive page, you will also have Show & Hide styling options to show/hide certain elements for certain screen sizes. When deciding to hide a given element, simply select the element and the screen size for which you would like to hide it. Below are the keys of what type of device each size typically corresponds to:

  • XS = Portrait Mobile
  • SM = Landscape Mobile
  • MD = Tablet
  • LG = Desktop

So if you would like to hide an image when viewing a given page on a mobile device, you would select the image and check the "Hide in XS" checkbox in order for it not render when the page is viewed on a mobile device. Click here to learn more about how to Show & Hide Conditions and Embeds.



Using "Responsive Row Settings":

This is a very important feature to adjust fields for different views, and each setting won't reflect the look on other views. It will give the fields the ability to either be "Stacked" or "Halves" or "Thirds" or to be "Distributed Evenly".

This setting can be easily accessed by first making sure you selected the correct hierarchy that you would want to adjust for mobile (XS view), then clicking on the "Responsive Raw Setting" icon on the blue top tab of it: 


It will open the small window where you will be able to choose how you want it to be displayed in different views:




Note: you will want to double-check if you are in the correct device viewport while applying the "Responsive Row Settings" to see how it looks in that view:
