Layout System

Layout System Purpose

Unlike MSlide², where layouts support structured content exploration, MSlide³ layouts are designed to support guided journeys and progressive experiences.

Layouts define how content, media, and interaction areas are arranged inside a Content State.

Layout Hierarchy

A Content State typically consists of:

Content State

├── Layout

├── Content Region

├── Media Region

└── Interaction Region

Layouts determine how these regions are presented.

Two-State Layout

The most common MSlide³ pattern divides a Content State into two complementary regions.

Content State

├── Primary Region

└── Secondary Region

This pattern allows content and media to coexist while maintaining progression.

Scroll Content Layout

Long-form information can exist inside an independently scrollable area.


Content State

├── Fixed Region

└── Scrollable Region


The surrounding Content State remains visible while deeper information becomes scrollable.

Tab Layout

Tab layouts provide a secondary view inside a Content State.

Rather than creating additional states, two related perspectives can coexist inside the same layout.


Content State

└── Two-View Layout

├── Primary Tab

└── Secondary Tab


Two-view layouts provide complementary perspectives inside the same Content State.
