This is the Email editor. It's build up by three main components: the Structure Panel, the Canvas and the Design Panel.

The Structure panel is your email skeleton. It consists of Rows and Columns and reflects the composition of the email. The panel updates as you add Elements to the Canvas.

Rows run horizontally across the canvas and can contain one or several elements.

Columns run vertically within a Row. A Row can be split into maximum 4 Columns. In the grey bottom bar you find Settings, Preview and Test options.

To create a new Row:

1 . Drag and drop an Element from the Design panel into the Canvas.

2. Select Row in the Structure panel. Or by clicking the green line running vertically next to the Row.

It may be difficult for certain apps, clients or browsers to display HTML content in some devices. The text version of an Email is a simplified version that contains only the text content of the email, without any pictures or any other sorts of media. An Email with a text version will increase the popularity due to more devices being able to display it properly.

Recipients who have difficulties reading may use accessibility features to read email, which requires a text version. The text version can be read out loud by the Email client to the recipient. That's a very important reason to steer away from emails that depend solely on images. Read more about Email design tips in the Best practice article.

Emails that contain a simple text version have an improved deliverability rate as certain email clients tend to flag emails without a text version as spam. By being mindful of the text version of your Email, you can ensure that everyone is able to receive your communications.

Also, it is worthy to mention that some people prefer the text version of Emails due to their simplicity.

While in the Email Editor, access the Preview. There you can toggle the Desktop, Mobile and Text version, and the canvas will change accordingly.
