The Divider block inserts a horizontal line to visually separate sections of your content. Use it to break up long resources, create clear sections, or add visual structure. Dividers can be styled with different line types, thicknesses, and optional labels.
Dividers with labels are great for creating named sections that help learners navigate longer resources.

Best practices:

  • Use larger padding for major section breaks
  • Use smaller padding for minor separations
  • Consider using dashed or dotted lines for softer visual breaks
  • Match divider style to your resource’s overall design
