The Block element is one of the four layout elements in Bricks (1.5+).
Introduced together with the Section & Div element it allows you to create flexible layouts in record time.
It offers the same controls as the Container element (flexbox, query loop, etc.). But uses a default width of 100%.
This makes it the perfect element to use inside of a Container (e.g. column/row based layout). Or wherever you need to span the entire available width, plus quick access to direction & alignment settings. As the Block element uses flex by default.
If want your layout element to only take up the space of its content, use the Div element instead.
