In Confluence, the top-level doc node is allowed to include layoutSection nodes. These in turn contain exactly two or three layoutColumn nodes that wrap other content. The effect is similar to declaring a table with no visible border, exactly one tableRow and that number of tableCells within the row.

Example

Java

layoutSection(
        layoutColumn(40).content(p("Hello world")),
        layoutColumn(60).content(p("Hello world again"))
);

Structure

type - layoutSection
content - array(layoutColumn, layoutColumn, layoutColumn?) – exactly 2 or 3 columns
marks? - array(breakout)
attrs?
- localId? – string1

The localId, when present, will typically be a random UUID. This is not enforced by the schema.↩︎
