Hi, I am trying to show two columns with similar content, here is blueprint:

title: Two accents

icon: document

status:
  draft: true
  listed: true

         
columns:
  - width: 1/1
    sections:
      content:
        type: fields
        fields:
          # Heading
          heading:
            extends: fields/heading
            width: 1/1

  - width: 1/2
    sections:
      settings:
        type: fields
        fields:
          text1:
            type: text
          tags1:
            type: tags
          desc1:
            type: textarea
            size: small
  - width: 1/2
    sections:
      settings:
        type: fields
        fields:
          text2:
            type: text
          tags2:
            type: tags
          desc2:
            type: textarea
            size: small

And I get this (same two columns - like second column):

Can you please guide where is mistake? Still need to understand the structure of blueprints.

You have two sections with the same name “settings”.

Ah, thank you, great, took from example, thought it’s needed to be called this way, but these are names, clear now.

Just interesting why sections in blueprint are designed to be with names? I don’t see their names in panel. So is it just to separate for myself, or names can be used somewhere else?

It’s a property of a section. At least in the case of files and pages sections the uppercased section name is used as section headline in the absence of headline setting. The section name is also used in the class attribute, so you could use it for styling.
