For a design enhancement, it would be nice to be able to add a border around cells within a row easily. ---

The ability to add an outline to a text box is basic stuff. Really surprised this is not an option. Please add it ASAP. ---

New to Hubspot and really, really shocked to learn you can’t add a wide range of borders, let alone one. Get with it Hubspot this is basic 101 stuff. ---

2022 and I don’t see this option. Would love to add a border within a block/div to add impact or a callout to an area. ---

HubSpot - even if we can add a divider between columns and change the orientation to vertical (along with the width, height and color) this would accomplish what my team would like to be able to do, if borders around the entire column content (or top, left, right, bottom like formatting an Excel cell) isn’t possible. Can one of these solutions be given consideration soon? ---

Wow. Can’t believe this has not been added. This is really a basic thing. ---

This is very much needed: adding borders & backfground colors, and the possibility of editing the corner radius. ---

Still shocked this isn’t in the product yet. Basic email design options are still lacking. Not nearly as bad as the basic functionality missing from the CRM but still surprising given the email tool is 15+ years in the making. ---

Adding borders the same way you add padding to a div is simple. Please add this. [Next page](https://community.hubspot.com/t/adding-borders-around-content-within-emails/29433.md?page=2)
