How to remove padding below image in 2 column section

I've created a full width section with 2 columns on my About page. The left column contains an image that I'd like to fill the column. However, I can't find a way to remove the padding / margin below the image which leaves the background color visible.

Grateful for advice on this one.

Hi there,

This CSS is added in Simple CSS:

.lgc-column {
    padding: 10px;
}

Let me know if this helps :)

Thanks Leo. I've already removed that padding and I'm still seeing a margin /padding below the image. Any ideas?

Hmm can't quite tell where is that coming from either.

What happens if you remove the <div class="my-grid-div">? Not sure why that's needed? You can add custom classes to LGC itself.

I've removed the div class and tried a bunch of variations with the css but I can't find a way to remove all padding/margins from the image in the left-hand column so that it covers 50% of the section.

Grateful for any more help on this one!

Hi there,

remove the padding CSS that Leo mentioned and add this CSS:

.inside-grid-column {
    height: 100%;
}
 .inside-grid-column img {
     height: 100%;
     widthH: 100%;
     object-fit: cover;
}

Thanks David. With that help from you and Leo we've nailed it!

In summary:

Apply a custom class to the section (in the section settings):
my-class

Add this CSS to remove the padding:

.my-class .lgc-column, .my-class .generate-sections-inside-container, .my-class .inside-grid-column {
padding: 0;
}

Add your CSS (with the extra custom class):

.my-class .inside-grid-column {
    height: 100%;
}
 my-class .inside-grid-column img {
     height: 100%;
     widthH: 100%;
     object-fit: cover;
}

This allows the image to fill the column in which it's inserted within a targeted section.

You're welcome from Leo and I - glad we could help
