Yes, it is possible to create a gallery in Webflow that automatically arranges photos with different margins for vertical and horizontal images, eliminating the need for manual adjustments. Here's how you can achieve this:

  1. Set up the structure: Start by creating a new div block on your page, which will serve as the container for your gallery. Inside this div block, add a grid element by selecting "Grid" from the Add panel on the right-hand side. Configure the grid with the desired number of columns and rows to accommodate your images.

  2. Upload images: Next, click on the grid element you just added and go to the "Settings" tab on the right-hand panel. Under the "Grid" section, click on the grid area where you want to add an image. In the "Settings" tab, click on the "+" button in the "Image" section to upload your images or select them from the asset manager.

  3. Size and position images: Click on an image within the grid and go to the "Settings" tab. Adjust the dimensions and position of the image within the grid area according to your preference.

  4. Apply spacing: To create different margins for horizontal and vertical images, go to the "Layout" tab on the right-hand panel. Under the "Grid" section, you'll find options to customize the gap between grid columns and rows. By adjusting these values, you can achieve different margins for horizontal and vertical images.

  5. Responsive adjustments: To ensure your gallery looks great on different devices and screen sizes, make sure to use Webflow's responsive design features. You can use the grid's "Auto" placement option to automatically adjust the grid layout on smaller screens, or you can manually adjust the image sizes and positions for each breakpoint using the visibility settings.

By following these steps, you can create a gallery in Webflow that can automatically arrange photos with different margins for vertical and horizontal images, eliminating the need for manual adjustments.
