In the screen shot above, the image is being pushed upward by the amount of text in the text component. What settings should I use to make the text push downward, and to try to keep the images aligned at the top??

Hi @sbchasin,

I think you’re using a Grid, but can’t be sure from your screenshot.

If your Container’s are in a grid, you should select the Grid and change the `Grid Alignment->Align->Items` setting to `Start` - that will push all components inside the grid up to the start.

I think this should fix it for you, but let us know if it’s still an issue 🙂

Thank you!! That did it. Perfect!!

At your convenience, can you go more in depth about the Grid Alignment controls in the Elements Manual please??

Thanks again!!

Of course. we’re still working our way towards fully documenting each component along with doing videos to show you how it works in practice ☺
