Creator+ Spotlight - Layouts
Have you used the Creator+ Layouts feature to improve course appeal?
Layouts make configuring content easier, and faster, than ever. With this feature, creators have the option to arrange text, media, and even Creator+ Elements into panels. This opens up your content pages to a new range of design possibilities. Instead of placing content into one long vertical page, you can now organize text and media into differently sized columns for a more dynamic look.
See it in Action
You can insert your own Layout in just a few easy steps. Check out the following video to see how it’s done!
(Note: This video does not have sound. A written list of instructions is included after the video.)
To create your own Layout in Brightspace, follow these steps:
- Select the “+” in the HTML editor. Select “Layouts.”
- Pick your Layout format option. You can choose from Two Panels, Two Thirds / One Third, One Third / Two Thirds, or Three Panels.
- Once the Layout is inserted, you can add text or media into the panels just like you would on any other part of an HTML page.
- Select the “Save” button at the bottom of the page to save your work.
