The layout of your pages can have a significant impact on readability and the visual presentation of your content. Narrower columns, for example, optimize for readability, with around 50-75 characters per line, while wider page widths work better for displaying tabular data.
You can create different layouts by inserting a default layout using the Layouts. This allows you to configure different parts of your page with various column setups.
Adding a layout section: Add a layout section to a page using the Layout button on the toolbar or by typing /layout on the page.
Choosing a layout: Once the layout section is on the page, select between a 2-column, 3-column, right sidebar, left sidebar, or 3-column with sidebar layouts.
There are several column layouts available. After inserting a layout, you can easily switch between different column configurations. Content doesn't get lost when you change the column layout; additional columns are added to the right, and when you change to a layout with fewer columns, the content moves to the left.
Switching layouts: You can switch between column layouts without losing any content. Simply choose a new layout from the Layouts, and your content will adjust accordingly.
Removing layouts: To remove a layout from the page, select the trash can icon in the floating toolbar.
Adjusting layout width: Layouts can be centered, wide, or full-width on the page, allowing you to control how your content is displayed.
By effectively using layouts, you can enhance the readability and visual impact of your pages, making your content more engaging and accessible to your audience.
