Hi there! Welcome to OSU Drupal
Droplets. This is Joe Fenn with Oregon
State University's Web and Mobile
Services. Today we are going to work on
part three of our examination of
Paragraphs. This is going to be the one
column with margins paragraph bundle. So, this particular paragraph bundle is very
simple and straightforward. It's
basically just text that's been styled,
however, with very wide right and left
margins. There's actually a purpose to
this! We use a full width layout in OSU
Pine and when you have a big block of
text with that full width layout it can
be kind of tedious for a users' eyes to
scan from all the way on the left to all
the way on the right. So, we tighten the
text block up a little bit here and it
allows our users to read things a little
more quickly. So, with no further ado, let's
make it. The first thing we need is some text...
So coming over to meet the ipsums here
and grab myself some text that I copy
and then bring it on back to our sample
page. Click the Edit tab and, once we're
in the node edit form, come on down to
where our Paragraph section is. Click the
drop down for Paragraph Types and choose
One Column with Margins and then click
the Add Another Paragraph button and, in a second, we will end up getting a field
set here that has a 1 column plain
label on it. Click that label to open
everything up and then just paste the
text in the Content field. So. if you want
to, you can shrink everything back up
again, which makes it a little faster to scroll
down. We come down and click the Save
button and scrolling down underneath our
first paragraph bundle we now see our
One Column with Margins paragraph bundle
and that's pretty much it. It really is
that simple.
