First, dont take this personally its not an attack it is just frustration throughout the years . with programs like this, that claim WYSISWYG but they never do as stated.

every time i try to learn one of these programs its always an exercise in frustration in trying to place elements where i want them .
what set me off on this lil rant, is the wrap text object and the youtube video element. usually you can "float" text around an object, on a window resize with css and html .

but thus far this seems to be near impossible with the way im trying to do it here. the text will not flow as expected around the youtube element.
so i foolishly tried the wrap text object thinking this was the way. but no, it fights me hard, when tying to place the youtube element within the box. and if im successful the text is not fluid and does not flow around the youtube element as expected . instead it is clipped. on window resizes.

also a contributing factor, is that for some reason in this program there are elements that do not obey their position when placing objects on-top of them .
i have had several instances where when trying to select the object i just placed the under lying element is selected. and i guess im wrong about this .. but shouldnt the object i dropped on-top of the work space be the top most so it can be positioned ? and why do i not have control of the size and position of objects ?? i spend more time sizing and resizing an object repeatedly only to have them to go to some obscure size.

and last but not final at all. what is the point of the HTML element if you can not edit the HTML inside this element . i know it seems editable. but its so wacky that it is just one more frustrating things to fight with, making a simple exercise of changing out all the P tags into SPAN tags into a nightmare ordeal . you would think copy and paste would be supported here but alas ...

Oh and one last thing ... something simple .

can you make a custom css styles be global so its accessible by all unrelated projects. its seems custom css styles are only available in the project in which it was created?

thanks for taking the time to read, this . im sure there is no easy answers to this as it something fundamental about how this programs works. it does not help that i have some mental block to understanding the expected workflow. im just hoping there is something out there that explains why my expectations are wrong and there is a proper methodology for working with this.

Firstly, it's important to understand that each browser renders content in a different way, so it is impossible to make a website look exactly the same in all browsers.
There will always be differences. However the software has several tools to take this into account.

WYSIWYG Web Builders supports several different layout methods. For example, fixed/absolute layout, flexible layout, flexbox.
The difference is explained here:
https://wysiwygwebbuilder.com/layout_modes.html
So, whether or not you can put an object on top of another object or how objects are positioned depends on how you have created the layout.

If you need help, then please share a DEMO project so we can see what you have done.



Also, note that WYSIWYG Web Builder is not an HTML editor. The HTML does not exist until you preview or publish the page, so that is why you cannot edit the code directly.
