Can anyone provide a workaround for adding space between 3 columns in Webflow without messing up the grid system?

If you want to add space between three columns in Webflow without disrupting the grid system, you can use a simple workaround. By default, the columns in Webflow have no spacing between them, so you will need to add a margin or padding to create the desired space. Here's how you can do it:

  1. Select the parent element that contains the three columns. This can be a section, a div, or any other element that contains the columns.
  2. In the Style panel, click on the settings icon to open the element's settings.
  3. In the settings panel, scroll down to the Layout section and find the option for Margins or Padding, depending on where you want to add the space.
  • If you want to add space between the columns, use the Margin option. You can select the margin value for all sides or adjust each side individually.
  • If you want to add space within the columns, use the Padding option. Again, you can set the padding value for all sides or adjust each side individually.
  1. Adjust the margin or padding values until you achieve the desired amount of space between the columns.

By using this method, you can add space between the columns without affecting the grid system in Webflow. It's important to note that adding margins or padding may cause the columns to wrap to the next line if the available space is limited. Make sure to keep this in mind and adjust your layout accordingly.
