couple of things, difficult to see your settings, you may have some settings that cause this

do you need the container just place the 2 texts directly under the image, the background color for the text can then be on the flex

I assume on your layout the background is on the container? the container is set to auto and not full??? cant see your settings

You can just set a BG colour on the flex (that’s probably the easiest fix). The other way is to set the height to full on the containers in the flex. Here’s a video talking through both options 🙂

Thank you Dan, I went the easy route and just put everything in the flex. I initially used the container becuase I wanted padding around the text and buttons, but I can do that per element. Thanks again for being so responsive. I’m having an issue with a clients site that’s been built with Foundry, I’ve decided to just rebuild it with elements, this is my first full build with Elements so I may be hitting the forum up with some more questions as I go, I’m kinda under the gun to get it completed quickly.

Awesome, and no problem, we’ll be here to make sure you get the client site built successfully 🫡

If you need anything just holler!
