This can be used to stack grids for example to create your desired effect. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Note that when stacking grids, it is best practice to only have one grid that is <strong>not <\/strong>visual only. Having multiple stacked grids that are not visual only can get very confusing, very quickly. Use one grid for object placement (visual only off) and stack as many others as you wish (visual only on) as you like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Be warned, stacking lots of grids will significantly impact performance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:22px;text-transform:capitalize\">Grid width<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>How many grid cells wide should the grid be on the X axis.
