Beginner - cant find the three dots

Widgets & Design

Hi there,

Absolute beginner here - forgive me for a noob question.

I have a page which has a grid of images. They are sorted in three columns and three rows - total of 9 images.

The images are 200 x 200, and I need a description of the images below the image.

I am using Chat GPT as my tutor who have given me the following structure per image

So there is a grid, and within the grid are columns. I need to then configure within each column the following:

Column

├─ AspectRatio

│ └─ Image

└─ Text

To do the above, it told me to do the following:

🔹 Method 1: Wrap from the Widget Tree (Best Method)

  1. Expand your Widget Tree panel (drag it wider if needed).

  2. Hover your mouse over the widget you want to wrap — for example, the Image.

  3. On the right end of that widget row, you should now see:

    • ⋮ three vertical dots

    • ➕ plus icon

    • 🗑️ trash icon

  4. Click the three dots (⋮).

  5. Choose "Wrap with Widget".

  6. Type AspectRatio and press Enter.

The only problem is that I can't find the 3 dots. I asked it to draw it out for me, which is in the image below.

And when I asked for it to find and show me how to get the three dots it says:

To find the three dots (⋮):

  1. Make sure you’re in the Widget Tree tab (left panel).

  2. Hover your mouse over a widget name (e.g. Image, Column, etc.).

  3. Look at the right side of that row — the three dots should appear when you hover.

  4. Click those dots to access Wrap with Widget and other options.

I've done everything it suggested and can't find it. Its driving me crazy!!!

Any help would be most appreciated...


And applogies for the noob question.

Cheers

What have you tried so far?

I have tried the hovering over the words and nothing happens.


I have also made sure I am in the widget tree section

I also tried method 2, which was:

Alternative: Use the Right-Click Style Panel

  1. Click the Image widget on the canvas.

  2. In the right-hand properties panel, scroll to the top.

  3. Click the Actions dropdown, or small gear icon ⚙️ if you see one.

  4. Look for “Wrap with Widget” in that menu.

  5. Type in or select AspectRatio.


But I could not see an Actions Drop down or small gear icon.
