Layout Type (Direction)

The layout-type determines the direction which a parent will stack its children. A parent element can arrange its children into a vertical stack (layout-type: column) or a horizontal stack (layout-type: row).

layout_type

The layout-type of a view can be specified using the respective layout modifier:

VStack::new(cx, |cx|{
    Label::new(cx, "Hello");
    Label::new(cx, "World");
})
.layout_type(LayoutType::Row);

Or in CSS:

.container {
    layout-type: row;
}
