theme
Editorial.
No cards, no corners, no shadows. Left aligned type separated by hairlines, the way a printed index page works.

Editorial is the only preset with a transparent block surface. There is nothing to sit on, so blocks are held apart by hairline rules and the type does all the structural work. Corners are square, because there is nothing to round.
It is the only preset that aligns left, and that is what makes it read as a document rather than a list of buttons. The display name is set in a serif of its own unless you choose a font, which keeps the top of the page looking like a masthead.
Pick it for a page that is mostly words: a writer, a studio, a consultancy, anybody whose page is closer to a letterhead than to a shop front.

other themes
- PrintNear white, black rules, square corners, titles in caps. Nothing floats, nothing glows, nothing fades.
- LedgerRuled paper, flat panels, one cobalt accent. The theme for a page that wants to look considered rather than loud.
- Soft DepthWarm paper, white cards, a shadow soft enough that you notice the lift rather than the shadow.
questions
Straight answers.
- Why do my blocks have no background?
- Editorial sets the block surface to transparent on purpose. Blocks are separated by hairline rules instead of by cards.
- Can I centre it?
- No. Left alignment is what the preset is. If you want centred type with hairlines, Print is the closer one.
- What sets the display name?
- A serif stack, unless you pick a profile font, in which case your font wins for the whole page.
