"Cobbles" grid pattern with Posts (Tiles) element

[DanielExMachina]

Hi there. In Essential Grid, there’s a grid pattern similar to Masonry where you can specify the dimensions of each item in the grid:

Which yields this kind of pattern:

Is it possible to replicate this look using the Posts (Tiles) element in Cornerstone?

Hi @one_eyed_man,

Unfortunately, that structure can’t be achieved using the Post(Tiles) element, you need to adjust the Post element or Looper Provider according to your design.

Thanks

Thanks for your reply @tristup. I’m confused though - you said it can’t be done, but then gave instructions on how to do it? What does the Looper Provider have to do with the size of the tiles (I thought loopers just returned data and didn’t affect the design layout)?

Hello @one_eyed_man,

Sorry for the confusion. In the Posts (Tiles) element, the Looper Provider which is also the Row element is the one who holds the column template layout.

Each column will have a width of 28em or less and then will stretch the last item if it is the only column in that row. Compared to the Essentials Grid plugin where you can set the dimensions for each column, you cannot do that with the Row/Columns format.

Ah ok, I understand now. No worries, thanks for clearing that up.
