• Hi.
    First of all, sorry for my bad English, but I hope I can make you understand.

    I was trying to use Gutenberg over other known and paid editors or even addons for Gutenberg.
    My main goal is to use only standard Gutenberg blocks (with any theme I want) to make faster sites (with less plugins as I can). But I feel I can’t do some basic settings on blocks, like adding margin and padding. These options simple don’t exists. It’s quite a big issue if you like to do stuff easily and fast, without adding classes and code to theme.
    Looks like if I want to to use 20 blocks with 20 different configurations of margin and padding, I would have to use 20 different classes and so on.
    For example, how can I make this simple task without coding: make this title (see print here) a little bit further from image and make the lower image a little bit upper so it can partially cover the other image (like this print, which I easily made with Gutentor margin and padding options)? Looks like I can’t from side bar blocks options.
    Another example (in this other print) I want to have text like 30px down to have a little distance from image above. I can’t do that without code or without adding a third element (like spacer).
    That is scary for me, I use margin and padding all the time for many reasons. So, I’m obligated to install a plugin which have natively much options for all blocks, like Gutentor, Qubely, Kadence Blocks, Ultimate Addons for Gutenberg or any other, otherwise I would have to spend lots of time coding CSS, or using paid stuff (which I really don’t want)
    There’s other issues like adding margin/padding to columns and not blocks itself.
    Will Gutenberg have in any edition basic options like those I said (margin and padding)? Or there’s a “hidden way” to do that and I don’t know how to access it? I would like to do it without using another plugin.
