How do I show a section as one sliding row, like a streaming app?
Four blocks can show their items as one row that slides sideways, with arrows at the ends: Card grid (set Layout to Carousel), News Index (set Layout to Strip), Events (set Layout to Strip) and Video Row (set Layout to Strip). On a phone the row swipes. A row that has more than fits shows part of the next card at the right edge, so visitors can see there is more. The row opens with its first card at the left edge and only the right arrow; once a visitor moves it, it runs in a loop both ways.
Each of those blocks also has Heading Link. Pick a page there and the section's heading becomes a link to it, with an arrow after the heading, so the heading of a row of four products can open the whole shop and the heading of five events can open the full calendar.
A Card grid fills the width of its section, with its heading at the left edge. Its Width setting keeps that as Full width; Text column narrows the grid to the width of the writing on the page, for two or three cards under a paragraph.
In a Featured Spotlight, a Card grid carousel and the rows of episodes, every card picture has the same shape, so the dates and titles under the cards line up. The row picks the shape: square when every picture is square art such as podcast covers, widescreen otherwise. To choose it yourself, set the Featured Spotlight's Image Shape to Widescreen, Square, Upright or Tall. Every picture then takes that shape, cropped to fit.
