Specially built for use with page builder

In Swift design options/layout settings we have a setting named airy where regular = 20px airy = 40px more airy = 60px lot more airy = 80px

spacing between columns.

The below classes depend on the value you select for the airy setting. If you select regular pull_* will be 10px and pull_*_2x will be 20px, if you select more airy pull_* will be 30px and pull_*_2x will be 60px. Same login applies to pad also.

.pull_t .pull_r .pull_b .pull_l .pull_rl .pull_tb .pull_trl .pull_rlb .pull_all

.pad_t .pad_r .pad_l .pad_b .pad_rl .pad_tb .pad_trl .pad_rlb .pad_all

pull* classes pull the element in the direction specified (t,r,b,l). pad* classes add padding in direction specified.

Why these classes when you can specify them inline or in page CSS ?

This is because Swift is truly responsive and we want the sites you develop also to scale beautifully. Imagine having 80px spacing between 2 or 3 columns on a mobile device, AWKWARD right? So, airy setting is ignored on tablets and mobiles. Using these classes ensures that you get appropriate spacing based on screen size.
