Concept
Filters, resources, and guidance follow one vertical stream.
Example
All six layouts use the same six resources, labels, and colors. Filter a topic, reverse collection order, open study notes, or narrow the preview. Compare the reading flow while the content stays the same. Reset or reload restores the full collection and original order. Filters, resources, and guidance form one vertical stream.
When to choose it
Choose it for sequential reading. Long pages require scrolling; a restrained line length helps keep the text manageable.
Comparison summary
| Concept | Features | Advantages | Limitations | Suitable situations | Combination conditions |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Single column | Filters, resources, and guidance follow one vertical stream. | One stream makes the next reading step predictable. | Long pages require scrolling; a restrained line length helps keep the text manageable. | Choose it for sequential reading. | Combine with minimal styling and a restrained text line length. |
