The page is divided into 12 snap to sections as shown with the pink areas in the image below. You can utilize snap to guides to easily resize the width of a placeholder. The location that the placeholder hovers over prior to release matters.
When resizing to the right, the placeholder will snap to the area to the left if the placeholder hovered over less than half of a snap to section. The reverse will occur if resizing to the left.

Snap to guides are also used to move objects to different parts of your page, whether it is a horizontal or vertical placement.
When moving placeholders to be a part of an existing section, you want to see the blue horizontal line under an object in the section appear before releasing the mouse.
When moving placeholders to be a new section, you want to see the blue horizontal line span across the width of the page before releasing the mouse.
The spaces between the snap to vertical snap to guide areas allows you to place objects between other objects, and easily swap two objects that are next to each other. If
To switch the order of two placeholders next to each other, drag one of the placeholders to be moved to the other side of the other placeholder. Look for the vertical blue line, and when you let go of the mouse the two objects will switch places.
Sometimes you may need to place things between existing placeholders. Similar to switching the order of a pair of placeholders, drag the placeholder between two placeholders. Look for the vertical blue line, and when you let go of the mouse the object will be placed between the two placeholders. Note: When placing new objects between existing items, the placeholders will not resize automatically. You will need to make size adjustments. When resizing the smaller placeholder to be larger, the width of the other placeholders will auto adjust to the placeholder that was resized to be larger.
You can control where you want to insert a new object onto the page by selecting the placeholder section first. After selecting the placeholder section, then insert the new object. The new object will be inserted below the selected placeholder section. Note: This does not work when inserting one of the Layouts. Layouts will always be inserted below the last object on your page.
