Am column

Available since version 1.0

What’s it for

Displays content as a column. This macro needs to be used within a column container macro. The following example uses 3 column macros within 1 column container and some additional formatting (explained in the configuration parameters):

Configuration Parameters

Width

Contains a list of predefined values that specify how wide the column needs to be with reference to the other columns. Options are:

  • auto: automatically calculates the column’s width based on the other columns' settings and the available space for all columns.

  • Three quarters: the column will take 75% of the total available space for all columns.

  • Two thirds: the column will take two thirds of the total space available for all columns.

  • Half: the column will take 50% of the total space available for all columns.

  • One third: the column will take one third of the space available for all columns.

  • One quarter: the column will take 25% of the space available for all columns.

  • Full: the column will take 100% of the space available for all columns.

If the total sum of used space is more than 100% of the available space, the other columns, or parts thereof, will no longer be visible on screen, unless you set the Show overflow setting in the column container. Example: 3 columns with the following width settings: half, half and full. This would set the total width to 200%.

If the total sum of used space is less than 100% the last column will be extended until reaching the 100%. Example: 3 columns with the following widths: one quarter, one quarter and one quarter. This would result in 75% of the available space. The last column in this case gets a total 50% space since the 2 first ones make up for the other 50%.

Centered

If checked, the elements inside of the column will be centered.

Style

Use custom CSS style formatting to adapt the column to your needs. In the example at the top of this page, the following was added to the second column’s style:
border-style: none solid none solid;border-width:1px;padding:10px
