Adding a Spacer Block

Method 1 – Use a forward slash (/) and then type out “spacer”. The spacer block should show up.

Method 2 – After selecting the editor, the user should see a + icon. Selecting this should show a list of the most common blocks used. If the spacer block is not there, use the search feature to find it.
