Abstract
Some embodiments provide a method for rearranging a content layout. The method receives a first content layout including several content elements arranged across a first set of vertical layout sections, each of which occupies a same first amount of horizontal space in the first content layout. At least one of the content elements spans several of the vertical layout sections of the first set. The method identifies a number of vertical layout sections available with which to display the first content layout. The method rearranges the several content elements into a second content layout including the several content elements arranged across a second set of vertical layout sections, each of which occupies a same second amount of horizontal space in the second content layout. At least one of the content elements spans a different number of vertical layout sections in the first content layout and the second content layout.
