Use Vertical Section Layouts

You can use a section layout to automatically determine the spacing and arrangement of components you add to the layout.

A vertical layout arranges the items added to it one after the other in a vertical line.

To add a layout to a page:

1. Navigate to the page you want to edit and make sure that is set to Edit.
2. Add the layout to the page.
3. To place other content in the section layout, drag and drop the content onto the layout.

   The layout highlights with a solid border and a banner that shows Add Item.

   You can continue adding items to the layout and the layout will format them accordingly. You can even add other section layouts to create sophisticated layouts.

   The following is a vertical layout with numbered text components to show the sequence of items in the layout:
