FAQ
Q1: What should I do if content displays incorrectly after adding columns?
- Solution: The width of content within columns automatically adapts to the column width. If content displays incorrectly, you can drag to adjust the width of each column, or drag content blocks out of the columns and rearrange them. Ensure that the size of the content within each column does not exceed the current column width.
Q2: Can I insert images into columns?
- Solution: Yes. Columns support inserting all content types supported by AirPage, including images, Sheets, code blocks, etc. Simply use the corresponding insert feature directly within the column area.
Q3: How do I delete columns?
- Solution: Place the cursor inside the column area, then select delete column via the paragraph handle menu, or drag all content out of the column area using the mouse; the columns will automatically disappear.
