This setting is called <strong>Inline (auto)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"callout-yellow\">Note: If the Container element is activated you will use the <em>Direction &gt; Row<\/em> property in the <strong>Layout<\/strong> tab of the Container instead of the widgets <strong>Inline (auto)<\/strong> property.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is Inline Positioning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When the <em>Width &gt; Inline (auto)<\/em> setting is applied, each widget will only take up the minimum width necessary to hold it. The elements will then align horizontally within their column.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How To Use Inline Positioning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Applying Inline settings to widgets<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"callout-yellow\"><strong>Note<\/strong>: To horizontally align multiple widgets, each widget needs to be defined as <strong>Inline(auto)<\/strong> separately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/elementor.com\/help\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Inline-Positioning-Step-One-Apply-To-Widgets.gif\" alt=\"Example Of Inline Width Setting\" class=\"wp-image-30404\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Applying the inline width property to widgets.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Under any <em>Widget &gt; Advanced &gt; Layout<\/em> locate the <strong>Width<\/strong> property dropdown.
