Layout Configuration

The layout objective is to organize the position of various fields on the label.

This configuration is optional. By default, the fields in the label will be organized according to order one after the other. All fields will have the exact same size.

  1. In LIBstick admin click on “Label Layouts” in the right navigation menu
  2. Create new or edit an existing label layout
  3. Add the title and click to launch the layout generator
  4. In the layout generator you can perform the following actions:
    • Add new rows and columns
    • Remove rows and columns
    • Split cells
    • Combine cells
  5. There is no meaning to the name of each cell
  6. Always use percentage to indicate the width and height
  7. The total accumulation of the width percentage should be 100%
  8. The total accumulation of the height percentage should be 100%
  9. To display multiple fields vertically when their size is dynamic, you can use a data group.
    End the cell’s name with -data-N (e.g. area-data-3) and that cell will absorb the next N fields and stack them vertically (one above the other, not side by side) inside it, instead of the default one-field-per-cell behavior.
    The benefit is that the fields inside the group size themselves dynamically based on their content, so you don’t have to pre-configure the exact width/height percentage of each field — the cell adapts to the data automatically.
  10. Once done, click the big save button on the left
  11. In the admin page, click on “Publish” to save the configuration
