Grabbing this for Friday.

I only had time to review the current doc for this today and all the static screenshots are fine and no changes need to be made.

I did not check alt tags, but will. Also, I will complete the rest of the checklist. The video at the top should be replaced. I'll circle back and get these updates in place and publish for a future time.

I'm unassigning this as I'm not able to get to it.

@femkreations Here's a suggestion to update the existing article's Style section to include the update made in 6.0 #34522

---

Styles

You can modify the Separator block's look by choosing one of the styles available in the block's settings on right-hand side under Styles.

Default, Wide Line and Dots are the 3 options to choose from, and you can either hover or focus click on each of the style option to get a preview of their appearance

Default style

The line separator will appear centrally aligned with a short length

Wide Line style

This style will spread the line separator across the content width having a longer length

Dots style

The short solid line seen in the Default style is replaced with a centred dotted line

Note
The above style options may vary based on the active theme

@femkreations Here's a suggestion to update the existing article and add a Dimensions section to include the update made in 6.1 #40551

---

Dimensions

The separator block provides the ability to add padding and margin values via the Dimensions settings option, giving you more control over creating the content separation

For more details, refer to this support article: Dimension settings overview
