[Tex/LaTex] ny way to create columns inside a tikzposter block

Question

I am trying to split a tikzposter block within different columns. The columns enviroment works for splitting the poster and insert blocks inside. However the columns environment does not work inside the block.

Here's a MWE:

\documentclass[25pt, a0paper, portrait, margin=0mm, innermargin=15mm, blockverticalspace=15mm, colspace=15mm, subcolspace=8mm]{tikzposter}

\usepackage{xcolor}
\usepackage{filecontents}% http://ctan.org/pkg/filecontents
\usepackage{lipsum}% http://ctan.org/pkg/lipsum
\usepackage{tikz}

\begin{filecontents*}{myDummyPictureCode.tex}
  \begin{tikzfigure}[Some nice caption for the figure]
    \centering
    \begin{tikzpicture}
      \draw [color=red] (0,0) rectangle (20,10) node [midway] {\huge myFigure};
    \end{tikzpicture}
  \end{tikzfigure}
\end{filecontents*}

\title{Title}
\author{Name}

\usetheme{Autumn}\usecolorstyle[colorPalette=BrownBlueOrange]{Germany}

\begin{document}\maketitle

\begin{columns} 
\column{0.7} \block{FigureOutside Block}{
  \lipsum[1]
}

\column{0.3} \block{}{
\input{./myDummyPictureCode.tex}
}
\end{columns}

% Text and figure Inside the Block
\block{Text and figure Block}{
\begin{columns} 
\column{0.7} \lipsum[1]
\column{0.3} \input{./myDummyPictureCode.tex}
\end{columns}
}

\end{document}

Is there anyway to achieve the desired result?

You can always use a minipage:

\documentclass[25pt, a0paper, portrait, margin=0mm, innermargin=15mm, blockverticalspace=15mm, colspace=15mm, subcolspace=8mm]{tikzposter}

\usepackage{xcolor}
\usepackage{filecontents}% http://ctan.org/pkg/filecontents
\usepackage{lipsum}% http://ctan.org/pkg/lipsum
\usepackage{tikz}
\usepackage{adjustbox}

\begin{filecontents*}{myDummyPictureCode.tex}
  \begin{tikzfigure}[Some nice caption for the figure]
    \centering
    \begin{tikzpicture}
      \draw [color=red] (0,0) rectangle (20,10) node [midway] {\huge myFigure};
    \end{tikzpicture}
  \end{tikzfigure}
\end{filecontents*}

\title{Title}
\author{Name}

\usetheme{Autumn}\usecolorstyle[colorPalette=BrownBlueOrange]{Germany}

\begin{document}
\maketitle

\begin{columns}
\column{0.7} \block{FigureOutside Block}{
  \lipsum[1]
}

\column{0.3} \block{}{
\input{./myDummyPictureCode.tex}
}
\end{columns}

% Text and figure Inside the Block
\block{Text and figure Block}{
\begin{minipage}[t]{0.7\linewidth}
\lipsum[1]
\end{minipage}%
\begin{adjustbox}{valign=t}
\begin{minipage}[t]{0.3\linewidth}
\input{./myDummyPictureCode.tex}
\end{minipage}
\end{adjustbox}
}

\end{document}
