Allow us to set spacer component height

Please allow us to set the spacer component size (height) so that we can control screen spacing more easily without needing to stack multiple spacers.

thanks for your consideration.

When I get frustrated with the excessive number of spacer components, I use a rich text component with a div and adjustable height to suit my needs. However, with the presence of the native spacer component, the transitions between components in the components panel on the dashboard will look cleaner.

I see that we have spacer size options. Thanks @glide ! Fully customizable coming soon?

I know this might sound excessive, but the custom AI component works fine to create your own custom spacer :person_shrugging:

It’s tricky. The more personalization options the developer is offered, the more they’ll be given the opportunity to mess up the layout. Take the iPhone and Android home screen for instance: Apple won’t let its users create an ugly home screen, it cannot be done. All iPhone home screens have looked just about the same since v1, and they all look decent. On Android however, while some designs can be extraordinary, other can be disastrous. One ethos at Glide, I believe, is that an ugly layout cannot be created using Glide’s native components.

Regardless, upvoted.
