.docname {Whitespace}
.include {docs}

You can add blank space anywhere via the **`.whitespace`** function .docslink {quarkdown-stdlib/com.quarkdown.stdlib.module.Layout/whitespace.html} , which accepts optional `width` and `height` [Size](sizes.qd#single-size-size) arguments.

- If you set neither argument, a simple whitespace character is rendered (` `), which is useful for adding blank lines.
- If you set at least one argument, a rectangle of that size is rendered. Note that this might not always work outside of [layout functions](stacks.qd).
