I am a newbie to Elements, I have created a page using a container, which has a 2 column grid in it, each column in the grid is a text box to produce two columns. I have taken a block of text from existing Classic page and pasted it into the one column, I understand it looses the bold etc but it is not wrapping the text and instead loosing the righ hand side. Is there something I am missing to get this text wrapped. Thanks ---

Yes I am after two columns down the page with text boxes in them ---

If you want it justified, make sure you click the justified button in Text box settings ---

I have tried that but for the left column when you click on the text block it is showing the right hand side as being over on the right hand side of the page and not in the middle where the grid column should end ---

> [@wnsc](#): > > I have tried that but for the left column when you click on the text block it is showing the right hand side as being over on the right hand side of the page and not in the middle where the grid column should end Do you have a picture?? I don’t quite get what you’re describing. You can also try changing the spacing (margins or padding) to see if that helps. ![Screenshot 2025-09-10 at 14.09.43](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/realmacsoftware1/original/3X/f/c/fc691e691d66d62911cc2e2a290e5144e0833df3.png) ---

I think you have to post a few more times and then it will let you… Per chance, did you set your grid to be 2 columns?? ![Screenshot 2025-09-10 at 14.18.23](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/realmacsoftware1/original/3X/9/f/9fa04378f2c6f7248bdfb0fdb3a9295f6ce726a8.png) ---

ok I will try again with your suggestions on margins etc. Basically I have Grid Container text text text Container text the first three text boxes span the full width, the last text box is only one of correct width. Yes I did set it to 2 Columns ---

Without seeing the actual Node Browser, make sure that the container is **IN** the grid, and make sure the text components are **IN** the respective containers. ---
