               Now click on the media and text box and toggle between having the photo on
               the left or the right.  Put it on the right where it was originally.  Note that the
               menu that appeared above the block is also the same as it was before.

               Click on the block again and replace whatever photo you have there with the one
               that was there originally showing the man and woman and their crossword
               puzzles.  Toggle between photo left and right again but leave it on the right.
               Update your page and you should be right back to where you started.
               Did you notice that the photo in the right-hand menu box had the white circle so
               you can select the focal point as you wish?  Did you notice that you can access
               the page hierarchy via the 3 offset horizontal lines (the hamburger) just as you
               did earlier in Site View?

                                                 There are the same colour options for text,
                                                 background, and links that you saw earlier.  Here I
                                                 have colourised the heading and background again
                                                 just as I did before.


               One final thing to check is how we insert new blocks in this edit mode.  No
               surprise there as the process is just the same.  Hover your mouse between two
               other blocks and you get the blue line with the plus sign as you did before.  Click
               on the + sign and simply select your block style and it will appear for you.  Note
               that any new block, when selected, will have the same sort of menu above it that
               you have already seen so you could use the up and down arrows for instance to
               change the position of your new block on the page.
               There are no rules regarding which edit mode to use.  You use whichever you are
               most comfortable with but do remember that there are some things you can
               only do in Dashboard menu mode including allocating page access rights.

               Self-Checks: Editing a Page using Dashboard menus:
               These are a repeat of the same self-checks that you used earlier so repeat them
               again now if you feel you want a little more practice using Dashboard menus
               otherwise move on to our next topic: -

                   1      Change a word in the first text box
                   2      Make the photo appear on the left rather than the right of that media
                          and text box

                   3      Preview your page in desktop, tablet, and mobile layouts

                   4      Replace the photo with another of your choice, change the size of it,
                          then make it appear to the right of the text as it was when you began
                   5      If necessary use the crop option to alter the appearance of the photo
