How can I achieve alternating columns on desktop view and change the order to display an image and text on responsive mobile view using Webflow? I have followed a guide but it's not working. Any advice?

To achieve alternating columns on desktop view and change the order to display an image and text on responsive mobile view in Webflow, you can follow these steps:

1. Start by adding a two-column grid element to your section or container. This will create the initial layout for your desktop view.

2. Place your image and text content inside the respective columns of the grid. Make sure the content is in the desired order for the desktop view.

3. Now, let's handle the alternating columns for the desktop view. Select the grid element and go to the Style tab. Under the Display section, you'll find the "grid" property. Click the grid icon to open the grid editor.

4. In the grid editor, you'll see the columns for your grid. By default, they should have equal widths. To achieve alternating columns, you can adjust the widths of the columns manually. For example, you can set one column to be 60% and the other column to be 40%. Play around with these values until you achieve the desired alternating effect.

5. Next, let's focus on changing the order for the mobile view. With the grid element still selected, go to the Style tab and under the Layout section, you'll find the "Order" property. By default, all columns have an order value of 0, which means they appear in the order they are placed in the HTML.

6. To change the order for mobile view, you can use the "Order" property. For example, if you want the image column to appear before the text column on mobile, you can set the order value of the image column to a lower number (e.g., -1) and the order value of the text column to a higher number (e.g., 1). This will change the order of the columns when viewed on mobile devices.

7. Preview your design in the Webflow Designer to see the changes you have made. Make any additional adjustments as needed to achieve the desired layout and responsiveness.

If you have followed these steps and the guide you mentioned, but it's not working, there could be a couple of reasons why:

- Make sure you are targeting the correct elements when adjusting the grid properties and order values.
- Double-check that there are no conflicting styles or interactions that might be affecting the layout.
- If you are using any custom code or third-party integrations, check if they are causing any conflicts.

If you are still experiencing difficulties, it would be helpful to provide more specific details or the guide you followed so that I can provide further assistance.
