Definition
A block contains any
number of elements.
It allows for intervention in a single
operation: moving, deleting, cropping, appearance, etc.
The encapsulation of
one or more elements in a block is essential for certain operations: fixed
width, model, selectable ...

A block can be stretched to take full available space in its cell, and it's content can be vertically positionned.
