How to use the style column to make some cards unique (2025 update)

In this tutorial, I show you how to change the layout for individual cards/tokens/tiles within a component by using a special style column in the component editor.

Tip: Use this approach if you need to change something (like border color) on a card-by-card basis. If you want a whole different look for some cards, you're better off making a new layout instead of using style columns.

Happy designing!
