Overview

In the Gutenberg editor, open the block section and click or drag the Text Block to the editor area. Main elements of the block are:

  • Title
  • Paragraph

Note: Because of the frequency of use, the first three elements (Subtitle, title and paragraph) of the Text Block are integrated in almost every Sana block.
