I just used the divider component the first time and I do not get it that it aligns in the center.

I placed a divider component in a container, set the width and height of the container and gave the divider a width of 256px. On the screenshot you can see that it is aligned vertically but horizontally it sticks on the left side.

Any ideas what can be wrong?

Trying setting the left and right margins to AUTO as that will normally center things.

Thanks @sbchasin and @handshaper for your comments. I thought that there is an easy solution - but that it is so easy 😂
