Tutorial: Laying out images in your email

ChristopherS080 · ‎06-26-2021

When I click on an image that I want to move, I do not get the little hand that allows me to move the object. The cursor remains as a crosshairs and I am unable to move a photo.

Also, how do I simply insert a photo into a block of text?

Thank you.

Hello @ChristopherS080,

Thank you for reaching out to the Community! If your text is in one text block, you, unfortunately, can't insert an image block. You will want to separate text blocks for paragraphs so you can insert an image in between them. You will see a purple line that indicates where your image is going to drop. Thanks!
