I would like to place two text elements next to each other in a column. Does anyone know if and how that is possible? So far I tried creating 2 text elements of width less then 50 and aligning one to the left and the other to the right. But that didn’t work. Any help is appreciated.

Ok I see, thanks.  
In the Brevo editor you can create two columns and populate each of the cells; as you’re writing «&nbsp;But that didn’t work&nbsp;» what is the obstacle you’re encountering to make this work?

Thank you @ahudavert for your reply. Unfortunately, I don’t remember completely what the problem was I was running into. I believe it had something to do with keeping the lines in sync and also to to create the lines. However, I was eventually able to solve the issue by going into Developer Mode and using YAML, HTML, and CSS style.
