Change Color in Layout Elements

This approach for colouring layout elements is really problematic. These ID numbers are all generated based on the order of where they sit on the page. So if you change one of them, all the ID’s get regenerated, which in turn throws out all your CSS coding. I’ve discovered this the hard way.

What would be ideal is for the CSS custom classes to be enabled for layout elements by default, just like they are for color sections. This way you can apply classes to layout elements, and they will stick regardless of any other changes you make to a page.

yes I have done this already. It only appears to add custom CSS option to content and media elements, but not layout elements. So for example, I can’t set a custom class for any of the 1/1, 1/2, 1/3 layout elements. I can however set it for a color section, but not the others?

Have I done something incorrectly?

Yes that’s the challenge. Those elements often sit inside a parent item which is a layout element dictating the contents width and positioning. It would be great to be able to apply classes to those two.

For example, being able to have four 1/4 layout columns sitting next to each other as 4 columns, with each one having it’s own background color and padding specified through a custom class or ID.
