 * Hi, I was testing the new container layout and got a bit confused tbh. Some options
   feel hard to find at first. Everything works fine tho. Just asking if there’s
   any simple guide or best way to use it properly? tnx

 * Hi there,
 * Tthis is totally understandable, since it is a newer system, the interface can
   feel a bit different at first, especially with the updated layout and options.
 * Right now, there isn’t a single “best way” to use it, but the idea behind lexboxF
   is to give you more control over layout with fewer sections and columns. A Flexbox
   container is used to group and organize other elements, including nested containers.
   It gives you more control over how content is arranged, making it easier to build
   detailed and precise layouts. Once you get used to it, it usually becomes more
   flexible and faster to work with.
 * You might also find it helpful to check Elementor’s official documentation and
   detailed guide in using Editor v4 elements like the Flexbox in our Help Center:
   [https://elementor.com/help/flexbox-element/](https://elementor.com/help/flexbox-element/)
 * There is also a full walkthrough for Elementor (Atomic Editor explained) in YouTube
   here: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=obdVGjOyVtE](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=obdVGjOyVtE)
 * Hope this helps! Let us know if you have any further questions.
 * Best regards,
