Content Templates

There are several templates for any given piece of content. These are mostly applicable for content types that have an order and hierarchy (like Person, Place, Topic) but also can apply to Pages:

Default: Depends on the post type, but typically shows Breadcrumbs, Title, Content, and Previous/Next links
No Breadcrumbs, No Title, No Prev/Next: A completely blank slate aside from the site header and footer. Only displays the Content.
Breadcrumbs, Title, No Prev/Next
Breadcrumbs, No Title, No Prev/Next
Breadcrumbs, No Title, Prev/Next

The menu to change the template is available in the Page/Post/Custom Post settings in the right sidebar:

Layout Widths

Available widths, which can be applied to a variety of blocks:

None (Default Content width: fits a 40/60 layout or 50/50 layout nicely)
Wide (Nice for large images, sets of three columns, etc)
Full (Edge to edge, useful for sections with background images or colors)
In addition, there is a “Limit Line Length” Group Variation that does what it says.

See full page on Layout Widths.

Columns and Grids

Columns and Grids are very useful for creating more complex layouts. They have a lot of options, and can contain almost any other block (including nested Columns and Grid!).

Block Styles

Block styles are different looks (colors, font sizes, spacing etc) for a given block. For example, a List Block might by default have bullets, but there is a style for a list without them. Styles can also be used to apply pre-defined color schemes.
