Container Components

Container components provide a way of laying out and organizing components within a View. The different container types support different layout strategies. Containers are essential to creating responsive applications, and they allow your applications to gracefully display information across a wide variety of screen sizes and orientations. 

The following is a complete list of Container components, and a link pointing to a page containing the component's description, properties, and an example of how to configure it. 

The Coordinate Container is the default container type when creating a new View in a project. A different container type can be selected using the dropdown arrow to display the full list of container component options.

After the initial View is created, all new Views will default to the last used container type selected in the Root Container Type field. For example, if the last View you created used the Flex Container, the next time you create a new View the Root Container Type will default to Flex Container instead of Coordinate Container.
