# 09 – Spacer

## Description

The simple Spacer block may be simple, but it is one of the most important features of any email. Every design relies on 'space', no matter the industry. This block has the added function to hide/show a keyline or just render it in desktop view. It can also edit the thickness and color and set the widths on desktop and mobile using a percentage.

## Default block view

**Desktop**
