Hi,
I'm creating dashboards and blocks programmatically using the Arduino API. It works "sort of".
I would like to control the placement (row,column) of a block but I have not been successful.
I've experimented with the http-api but PATCHing a block does not seem to work so I'm desperately looking for a detailed example of a working http-request.
See http://adafruit.github.io/io-api/#operation/updateBlock
Cheers

Re: Change/set block size and position programmatically
It looks like you're linking to our old api documentation.
Here is the current documentation on manipulating a dashboard:
https://io.adafruit.com/api/docs/#dashboards
In particular, modifying the column, row, size_x, and size_y values should get you what you're looking for using PUT rather than PATCH.
