How to create two columns of text that flow one into the other.

Hello CC,

What is the best way to create two columns of bulleted items so that when the columns reflow one below the other on a mobile device, there is no space between the columns — so that it looks like the text flows from the first columns into the second? I don't see a way to delete the bottom or top padding of the text blocks in the editor interface. I am using the Two Column element (Layout/Left in fourth row). 

Thanks in advance!

Hello @CherylB141 ,

 

There wouldn't really be a way to do this due to how mobile restructuring works. The only method to avoid this would be to use a screencap image of the normal desktop layout, so it still appears like it's still a 2-column list in mobile format. Otherwise it'll just have an extra bit of padding when mobile-converted from two left-right columns into two top-down rows.
