SharePoint Flexible Sections - build pages without a strict column structure

Say goodbye to rigid columns and hello to true design flexibility in SharePoint! 🎉
In this video, I’ll walk you through the new Flexible Sections feature that lets you:
✅ Drag & drop web parts anywhere - no more fixed columns
✅ Resize & reposition elements with a dynamic grid layout
✅ Layer & overlap content for a modern, engaging design
✅ Group & move multiple web parts as a single unit
✅ Customize backgrounds with colors, overlays, and images
This is a game-changer for anyone creating SharePoint pages-finally, a design experience that feels modern and intuitive.

Great, some really modern features 😉

[@SharePointMaven]

A great addition to the OOTB capabilities! Thanks for sharing this, Daniel!

You are welcome! Legend

[@Boxlopper]

A legend indeed. Is it always a race between you guys as to who can put out a video first on a topic?

[@cdsmytheBCE]

Great intro to this feature Daniel :)

[@DanielAndersonAU]

Glad you like it!

[@taraschnaible8080]

Thanks for the really helpful video showing how this works. Can you potentially add an addendum to show how this page layout handles different screen sizes (monitor vs tablet vs phone)? Very curious to see how it handles responsiveness

[@memando]

I was thinking the same thing ..Keen to see how overlaying will affect the look on a smaller screen. We haven't had this light up yet so can't test but thanks for your awesome demo!

[@DanielAndersonAU]

Sure thing!

[@Boxlopper]

This is great, thanks for the video, but did MS say when they were rolling this out? I don't have it in either of my SP tennants
