Layout prop. All three widths plus a pair and standard prose elements in one issue.
Prop, Side By Side Pairs
Layout prop. Paired images sharing one caption, which should collapse to stacked under 620px.
Prop, Full Bleed
Layout prop. Figures span the full content width, edge to edge.
Prop, Wide Figures
Layout prop. Figures break out to 1040px while the text stays at 680px.
Prop, Column Figures Only
Layout prop. Every figure sits in the 680px text column, the narrowest of the three widths.
