Split

Split layouts divide a surface into primary and secondary panels. They are useful in editor-style workspaces, settings pages, and dashboard shells where one area requires focus while another remains contextually available.

When to use

Use a split layout when:

• the user needs to compare two content areas at once
• a list or navigation panel remains visible while a details panel updates
• a primary workspace needs a persistent secondary context

Example

#![allow(unused)]
fn main() {
use bevy::prelude::*;
use beverly::prelude::*;

fn build_split_panel(mut commands: Commands) {
    commands.spawn((
        NodeBundle::default(),
        BeverlySplit::horizontal(),
    )).with_children(|split| {
        split.spawn(NodeBundle::default());
        split.spawn(NodeBundle::default());
    });
}
}

Guidance

Keep the split proportion stable and ensure each pane still has enough breathing room. A split layout should not become a cramped crowding mechanism for unrelated content.
