Match the heights of elements

Important

Only use this feature when you cannot achieve what you require using CSS. This feature uses javascript to match the heights of elements that share a class or element type. You can often achieve the same result using CSS Flex properties. Using CSS will perform better than javascript.

You can match the heights of elements on the Layout canvas to create horizontally aligned layouts. Different elements have different match heights options. These are as follows:

Row for columns - match heights of children

The Row for columns element includes the option to match the heights of either nested Columns or direct child elements of those Columns. You can also target the level you want to apply the match heights to. The options include:

Match heights of children - Match the heights of child elements using:
- None - Removes match heights at the specific breakpoint. This is useful for removing Match heights when Columns stack vertically on narrow device widths.
