Are you using clone blocks to create the black section? What does your component tree (list of components on the left side of the Design window) look like? What do you want to have happen with the red section? What would it look like if it was working correctly? Are you saying that the red section does not move when you add a group to the black section? What does happen? Is this the snap to place interface or drag and drop interface? ---

You’re describing what happens on the screen but I need to know **how** it happens in your code. So you need to explain what blocks you’re using to create the new groups. It may be easier to just share a link to your project. ---

You could consider creating a custom dvl layout. It’s a bit more advanced of a task but then items don’t need to shifted on screen and instead your rows of input can be scrolled. ---

When you create a new project, you need to uncheck the box that says “try our new drag and drop interface.” > [@Thunkable Drag and Drop Docs are Here!](https://community.thunkable.com/t/thunkable-drag-and-drop-docs-are-here/1219395/6): > > Hi there, When you create a new project, you will see a checkbox in the create project modal that asks if you want to try out Thunkable’s new drag and drop interface If you check this checkbox, as seen in the above screenshot, you can start building with the drag and drop interface! There is no way to convert a drag and drop project to a snap to place project. ---

If all what you want is the order form to have more rows then you can do that with the DVL (Data Viewer List). Another thing to note is that Thunkable does not have **EXIT** button. [Next page](https://community.thunkable.com/t/i-want-to-change-alignment-of-group-using-block/1700319.md?page=2)
