# Space
A no-content block whose only job is to add empty space. Drop it between sections to create a visual breather without fiddling with each block's padding.
## Available in
* All module types
## When to use
* Between major sections of a page where padding alone isn't enough.
* To separate a Heading from the content below.
* Anywhere you need a precise pixel gap that doesn't depend on parent gap settings.
For consistent spacing across many blocks, prefer adjusting the parent Row/Grid's *gap* — Space is for one-off needs.
## Settings
| Setting | Description |
| ------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Size** | The amount of space, in 8px increments from 8px to 160px. Default: 24px. |
| **Direction** | *Vertical* (height), *Horizontal* (width when inside a Row), or *Both*. Default: *Both*. |
## How it works
Space renders as an invisible div with the configured size. Direction determines whether it adds height (vertical), width (horizontal), or both.
In a Column or stacked layout, vertical space pushes the next block down. In a Row, horizontal space pushes the next block right.
## Examples
**Section separator.** Heading "Recent Orders" → Space (size 32, vertical) → Report Widget. Clean visual gap without touching either block's padding.
**Form section break.** Inside a vertical form, drop a Space (size 16) between each major group of fields.
