  • Breakpoints Tutorial | Academy X | Editor X

    Home Library Basics Breakpoints part 1 Tutorial Breakpoints A breakpoint is where you can adjust a website’s layout or style for different viewport sizes. Each breakpoint has a starting point, an end point and a range in between. Editor X has 3 default breakpoints at common device sizes: desktop, tablet and mobile. Jump between breakpoints, customize them and add new ones using the breakpoint navigator above your canvas. LOADING... Article Exercise Transcript Structure vs style The structure, (hierarchy) and data, (text, media etc.) of your site always stay the same, but at every breakpoint you can customize the layout and style of your content. The cascading rule Changes you make to a site’s layout or style always trickle down to smaller breakpoints. For example, if you make a change on desktop, you’ll see it on mobile—but if you make a change on mobile, the desktop design won’t be affected. Changes per breakpoint When you’re working at a smaller breakpoint and you make a layout or style change, this automatically overrides any changes that cascaded down. For example, if you change a button’s color on tablet, you override all the changes you made to that button on desktop—but because tablet is larger than mobile, your new change will still trickle down to mobile.

  • How scale text works Tutorial | Editor X

    Home Library Basics How scale text works Tutorial Text & buttons Scale text lets us set the text size to scale in proportion to the size of the viewport. Follow along with technical designer Ido Hershkovits as he explains how scale text works and how to use it on your sites. What do you think about the course so far?

I work closely alongside the Editor X marketing team as a coding and responsive design expert. In my spare time, I’m a passionate musician and producer. Go create on Editor X → LOADING... Guide Transcript How scale text works Open the editor to try it out → What is scale text? When we create websites on Editor X, we can set the text to scale in proportion to the size of the viewport. This means that when you move to a larger viewport, the text grows in size and shrinks when you move to a smaller viewport. For more control, you can also set a custom upper and lower value so the text will not grow larger or shrink smaller than the values set. When we don't want text to scale, we can set the text to be a fixed value, so that the font size will remain the same across all viewport widths and breakpoints. The cascading rule applies here so design changes in smaller breakpoints don't affect large breakpoints. This means that a new scale text in tablet view will affect mobile only—desktop will be unaffected. When does scale text apply? Let’s say we’re at the largest breakpoint of 1920px and we set the scale text at 60 font size. When we move to a smaller breakpoint of 320px, the font size reduces to 28. On tablet view, if we want to make the text larger, we’ll set an upper value of 56, which will override the scale text set on desktop. The upper value refers to the font size at the highest point in the tablet range, which is 1000px in this case. What happens in extra large displays? Above 1920px, text continues to scale up as the viewport widens. To avoid this, add a custom breakpoint at 1920px and set a fixed font size at that breakpoint.

I love listening to indie music and my favorite band is Kings of Leon. Go create on Editor X → LOADING... Guide Transcript Think responsively The fact is that you don’t know which device is being used when someone visits your site—so right from the start you should be thinking about the behavior of elements on different screens. You want to ensure your finished creation looks great at all breakpoints. Cascading When you style an element at one breakpoint, changes cascade down to all the smaller breakpoints. If you adjust the position or design of an element at a smaller breakpoint, the connection at larger breakpoints is broken. This means that larger breakpoints won’t be affected by your changes—but they'll still cascade down to all smaller breakpoints. Note: If you take an element out of its container at one breakpoint, this affects the hierarchy of the site and therefore affects all breakpoints—both large and small. Docking Editor X has a smart docking system. This means that when you drag an element into a container, it docks it to the closest edge. You can also change the docking manually from the Inspector panel. Docking is not only responsible for the placement of an element within its container, but also for how the element behaves at different screen sizes. For example, when you dock an element to the top left of a container, the position of that element will always be relative to the top left of that container. If you dock an element to the left and right of a container, the element becomes fluid, so as the container’s width changes the element's width will too. Master the grid Grid is a sophisticated CSS tool, offering you tons of ways to build creative layouts. From my experience, in most cases a grid is the perfect solution for any design. You can place elements precisely in their own grid cells and dock them to different grid lines. This helps create responsive relationships between them. You can apply a grid to any section or container and you can also redefine the grid layout at any breakpoint. Work with stack Stack is a great solution for creating a vertical connection between 2 or more elements. It keeps elements at a set distance from each other, and functions across all breakpoints to prevent overlap. You can stack together any kind of element. Using margins in the Inspector panel, you can control the distances between the stack elements. Get Repeater power Repeater is an amazing tool that can be used to create a uniformly styled, multi-box layout. With the Repeater, you can change the order of the boxes, rearrange their layout at each breakpoint, add a horizontal or vertical scroll and more. You can also connect your Repeater to a database to display tons of content that you update regularly from your site dashboard. Head to the layers panel A website is made up of many elements and sometimes it’s difficult to find the element you are looking for—the more complex your site, the more layers you'll have. The Layers panel is a simple and fast way to view the order of all the elements you have on the site and select the one you need. You can always change the default name of an element to make it easier for you to find. Accessibility: Checking that the order of the elements in the DOM is the same as the natural flow of the site is part of the process for making your site accessible. By looking at the Layers panel, you can see if the elements are in the right order. To rearrange, simply drag an element in the Layers panel to its correct position. Use the Theme Manager Using the Theme Manager can save you a lot of time and make your job much easier. Find it in the creation bar next to the pages icon. You can predefine the styles for headings and paragraphs, and create a custom color palette for each site. Changes you make in the Theme Manager will affect all the elements currently using that theme.
