I am working on this issue during Contributor Day at WordCamp Europe 2022.

[wmjohnston06]

Suggested change 1: In the first paragraph of the article, update the text to read:

"If you want to have a space between two blocks, the spacer block is what you will use.
A vertical spacer adds space between blocks in a column (as in a page or post).
A horizontal spacer adds space between blocks in a row (as in a Navigation block).

(Note: Using a Navigation block requires a block theme or a theme that has support for template editing.)

Suggested change 2: In the paragraph under the heading "Spacer Settings", change the text

From:
"The Height setting adjusts the height of the space you want to add by typing the number."
To:
"The Height setting adjusts the height of the space. The Width setting adjusts the width of the space. You can adjust the settings by either:

• Typing the number in the "Spacer Settings" box, or
• Dragging the handle at the bottom of the spacer (for the vertical spacer) or at the side of the spacer (for the horizontal spacer).

Make sure the headings are in sentence case
These headings should be changed:

• Block toolbar

• Block settings

No need to be embarrassed, @wmjohnston06 . And since I'm a new contributor, it's always possible I shouldn't have interrupted your process. I have no idea! Either way, we'll call this a team effort, right? :)

Thanks @wmjohnston06 and @cavalierlife for adding in the content for the previous versions.

I am adding in the tasks for 6.1.

Notes

1. We are not adding updates for the Block settings as we are revamping the block settings for all the block articles
2. Pls make 6.1 updates first and then move into 6.0.
3. For 6.0, you can pick the screenshots added in the comments previously.

[chrisjangl]

I can help out here, @zzap.

[femkreations]

[jomarieminney]

[femkreations]
