# Column-span
The `column-span` style specifies how many columns a widget will span in a grid layout.
!!! note
This style only affects widgets that are direct children of a widget with `layout: grid`.
## Syntax
--8<-- "docs/snippets/syntax_block_start.md"
column-span: <a href="../../css_types/integer">&lt;integer&gt;</a>;
--8<-- "docs/snippets/syntax_block_end.md"
The style `column-span` accepts a single non-negative [`<integer>`](../../../css_types/integer) that quantifies how many columns the given widget spans.
## Example
The example below shows a 4 by 4 grid where many placeholders span over several columns.

```{.textual path="docs/examples/styles/column_span.py"}

=== "column_span.css"
```sass hl_lines="2 5 8 11 14 20"
--8<-- "docs/examples/styles/column_span.css"
```
## CSS
