ENHANCEMENTS AND BUG FIXES

Callout Microcontent Not Wrapping Correctly

When you use the option to hide the title on a Callout, the content within the Callout was not wrapping correctly and leaving a blank space on the left side of the Callout. This bug has been fixed.

Menu Spacing for an External Link

The external link icon was causing spacing and alignment issues on main menus, which caused added spaces within the menu. This was causing some menus to transition to the hamburger menu (the three small lines signifying a menu on the upper right of a page). This has been fixed.
