Custom HTML can be inserted above, below, left, or right of the Grid component. To do this, click the button for the region to open the Freeform Edit Region editor. The editor is an HTML editor that provides both WYSIWYG and code mode.

The editor contains a number of features that help make it easy to add and edit HTML, including a set of common word processing tools. The editing toolbar includes buttons to change the font type, size, and color; creating underlined, bold, or italic text; add images, tables, and hyperlinks; right, center, and left justify text; spell-checking, copy and paste tools, and more.
