Inline Plain Text Associated With Dynamic Data

I'm using ACF fields on a CPT with Brizy and when you attempt to inline text before the #field it associates itself with the dynamic field eliminating that text from the post view.  Is there any way to work around this?

  Hi Gary

  One possible work around is to

  1. Add two columns
  2. Drag and drop text elements into both columns
  3. Add the static content on the left column and the dynamic content on the right

  Thanks, KC I  thought of that, but I have a series of vertical rows of dynamic fields and some without static descriptive text before them.  I would need to compensate for that and not sure how it would look across devices. Toolset has an elegant dynamic inline text feature that allows for the combination of static and dynamic text combined in a single field.

  Hi Gary

  When you add some text before the dynamic field the text element seems to misbehave. Do you want me to take a look your project and implement the column design for you?

  I can implement it, not a problem.  The issue, as an example, is that I have a dynamic field that returns the Post Title.  That doesn't require a descriptive static text before it, but the next field does. Putting an additional column in that holds the static text would move the Post Title to the right of that and out of left-hand alignment with the rest of the fields.

  I will fiddle with it and see if I can set the style/margins to match.

  Hi Gary

  In the example below, I have a static description on the left and a dynamic filed on the right for the first, third and the fourth rows. In the second row, I have just one column with the dynamic filed. 

  For the dynamic field that returns the Post Title which doesn't require a descriptive static text before it, I would suggest you remove the left column (and have only a single column)

  Thanks again, KC... you helped me cinch down my thinking cap a little tighter.  After playing with the column and row margins a bit longer I came up with your solution and was able to format the layout close to what I needed.  I just wish Brizy would add a text and custom field inline update.  If this hasn't been suggested yet, I will do so.
