-
Go to ‘Campaigns’>> ‘New Campaign’.

Choose any template to edit.
Step 2: Click on the ‘HTML/CSS Editor’ tab in the ‘Edit Design’ section.

Step 4: Switch to CSS by clicking on the button next to HTML.
In your CSS code, paste the following code in the first line:
div.container {
width: 300px;

position: absolute;
top: 6px;
border-bottom: 1px dashed;
font-size: 14px;
display: inline;
font-weight: 100;
