What is a Layout Grid
Layout Grid creates a unified and recognizable style for your publication by organizing your content in an effective way.
Setka Editor uses column grids — the basic grids in graphic design. These are often supplemented with horizontal rows constructed depending on your font size. Their configuration depends on the number of columns, margins, and gutters.
Column grids help to develop a design for a variety of devices: computers, tablets, and mobiles. Columns provide necessary limitations that enable you to arrange the content efficiently and coherently.
Setka Editor provides 4 layout grids by default: with 6, 8, 10, and 12 columns.

Auto width fits 100% of your content container. The margin width remains constant, container size stays unchanged on window resize.
Limited width lets you set an exact maximum content width limit in pixels. Margins are fluid and fill all the available space between the container and post content's width, which keeps content in the center. Select a Limited Layout Grid when your images overhanging the post width.
