Rendering properties on a layout

This tab is only visible if a layout is selected.

Size

Width/height

Shows the width and height of the layout. Default is not configured. A box for adding distance is activated when choosing unit in the list px/em/percent.

Fill

Check this box if you want the column to use the whole width of the parent layout.

OBSERVE! The appearance might be incorrect for users with large screens.

Width restrictions

If a layout is located on a page template is it possible to configure a min and max width of the layout.

Rendering

Rendering template

Configuration of how portlets and layouts should be stacked in this layout. Available options are Rows, Columns and Custom Velocity Template.

Vertical alignment

Configuration of how portlets or layouts in this layout should be positioned vertically. Available options are top, middle or bottom.

Horizontal alignment

Configuration of how portlets or layouts in this layout should be positioned horizontally. Available options are top, middle or bottom.

Spacing

Here you can set the preferred spacing between the portlets and layouts. If you for example have a content area where you can place portlets they normally are stacked on each other without spacing. If setting a spacing of 10 pixels the portlets are shown with a space of 10 pixels. It gives the page a better appearance and the one adding portlets does not have to make a setting for each added portlet.

Other

Use as content

This box is used automatically by the system. By default it is not checked but will automatically be checked on all layouts that are located in a content area. If for example unchecking this box the search engine will not use this layout in the search.
