Skin form — Components tab — Layouts — Dynamic layouts |
Styles set here apply to dynamic layout formats. Dynamic layout formats determine item placement and alignment and label placement and alignment within the layout. They also define the responsive behavior of the layout. You can set responsive breakpoints for dynamic layouts, enabling the layout and its fields to adjust to the available space.
Note: Dynamic layouts are available only to user interfaces rendered in rendered in HTML5 document type (standards mode).
A number of dynamic layout style formats are available in the skin, including: Default, Stacked, Inline, Inline grid double, and Inline grid triple.
You can modify the existing formats and create additional dynamic layout formats as needed.
A preview of the currently selected format displays to the right. You can also preview formats by selecting Actions > Launch in the toolbar and then choosing one of the following preview options: Run Process, Open Portal, Harness Preview, UI Gallery Preview, Skin Preview.
You can create additional dynamic layout formats, if necessary.
To create a new style format:
If you want to create a new format that is a copy of an existing format, right-click the format that you want copy and then click Clone.

Minimum item width | Specify the minimum item width in pixels (px) or percentage (%). |
Minimum item height | Specify the minimum item height in pixels (px) or percentage (%). |
Vertical alignment | Select to align the item in the top, middle, or bottom of the available row height. |
Label position |
Select one of the following positions for the item label:
|
Horizontal alignment |
Select to align the label at the left, right, or in the center of the label area.

Label width |
Appears when the Label position is set to left or label width is set to Fixed. Select Natural label width to specify using only the space the label needs rather than a fixed width. The label must be positioned on the left to use this setting. Specify the width of the label in pixels (px). Label text is horizontally aligned within the space you specify. |
