Style Behavior Properties View Layout Tab

Use the Properties view Layout tab to define attributes that control the appearance of a given node in the web client.

The Layout tab is rendered differently based on whether the behavior is defined for an element or a structure. For an element, all fields are disabled because the tab deals with page layouts for structures. For a structure with child elements, all fields are enabled.

Field	Use
None	Select to specify no layout. This is the default.
Page Layout	Select to specify how to organize a group's child nodes into tabbed pages. When you select this option, you can also enter a name and language for the layout, as well as a brief description. To use this layout, the node must be a complex type. A complex type element is an element that contains other elements or attributes.
Table Layout	Select to place the group in a table format. Child nodes within the group are represented by columns, and instances of the group are represented by rows. Columns are displayed from left to right in the same order that they appear from top to bottom in a view that does not use the table layout. You can choose to hide a child node so that it does not appear in the table. To use this layout, the node must be a complex type and have children. A complex type element is an element that contains other elements or attributes.
