    Hello Matt,

    It's a follow-up to my previous message. As a workaround you can wrap
    first two blocks into a single block with keep-together.within-column="always".
    Keep-together constraint is respected by the formatter during the
    content balancing process.

    Best regards,

    MT>> Hi,

    MT>> I'm having difficulties keeping two blocks together within one column on
