Layouts Explained
The Layout is what defines what elements appear and their position on the page.
You are required to have an Object and Elements created before you can use the Layout.
Once you have the Object and Elements created, you simply drag the elements from the fields list onto the page and position them. Save the Layout and you are done.
You must select the Save button or your changes will not be reflected.
