Profound Logic Forums

Is there a way (other than creating a class) that I can set the display property to either block or flex from the Visual Designer? How about changing the position from absolute to relative?

The text below the Inline Style property say that these two properties are ignored and should be set with the widget properties - but I can't seem to find those properties for any widgets.

Our framework is built using absolute positioning, so changing this on a screen-wide basis would break most of the framework. The fact of the matter is, in order to provide a drag/drop visual designer, you have to use absolute positioning. There are other (non-Profound) designers that work without absolute positioning, but they are very complicated for someone to use who isn't an expert on web development, and our goal was to create something that anyone can use.

If you want to change it purely within an HTML container, or a custom widget, or something like that... that's no problem. You would just code it inside that widget using the appopriate HTML and/or CSS code. Just please do not change it outside of that widget.
