List block
A List block is a bulleted or numbered list. Each item is rich text, so you can add links and inline styles the same way you do in a Text block.
What is a List block?
A List block is a bulleted or numbered list. Each item is rich text, so you can add links and inline styles the same way you do in a Text block.
Use List when the copy is a sequence or a set of points. Use Text for a normal paragraph, and a Table block when the content is rows and columns rather than a list.
How to add
- Open the Blocks tab in the left sidebar.
- Drag List into a column on the canvas.
- Click the block to edit its content and properties.

Properties
Select the List block, then open the Properties tab on the right. These controls change how this block looks and behaves.

| Inner padding | px, or More options per side | Space between the list and the block edge |
| Alignment | Left, centre, or right | Where the block sits in the column |
| Background colour | Theme colour or a custom swatch | Fill behind the block |
| Content padding | px, or More options per side | Space around the block in the column |
| Border | On/off, width, colour, style, and sides | Outline around the block |
| Corner radius | A single px value | Round the block corners (email clients use one radius) |
| Hide | Off, mobile, or desktop | Keep the block off one breakpoint |
