Instructions for Different Divi Builder Design Modes

Understand: Hover Mode is the default setting, which displays module options upon hovering.
- Navigate to Builder options (three dots on the bottom left) to explore other modes.
- Activate different design modes by clicking on their icons at the top of the options panel.
Hover Mode
This is the default mode where you interact with modules directly on the page. It’s ideal for quick edits and previews, as it shows options and settings upon hovering over elements. This mode is perfect for rapid, intuitive design changes.
Grid Mode
This mode shines in complex page layouts. By outlining all elements and providing a clear grid layout, it minimizes the chances of accidental overlaps and ensures precise module placement. Grid Mode is invaluable for visualizing the entire page structure, which is especially helpful in responsive design, where elements need to be perfectly aligned and distributed.
Click Mode
Focused and distraction-free, Click Mode is designed for detailed editing. By requiring a click to select an element, it prevents unintentional module selection and offers a more controlled editing environment. This mode is particularly useful when working on dense pages with many elements, as it allows you to concentrate on one module at a time without other settings popping up.
