							<p>When generating <a href="/glyph/book/text_editing/topics.html#topics">topic</a>-based outputs, Glyph uses <em>layouts</em> to render topics as standalone documents. By default, the following two layout are used:</p>
<ul>
	<li><code>topic</code> &#8212; used to render standard topics.</li>
	<li><code>index</code> &#8212; used to render the index page of your document.</li>
</ul>
<p>Layouts are nothing more than &#8220;fancy&#8221; Glyph macros defined using the Glyph language (i.e. by using <a href="/glyph/book/extending/interpreting.html#rewriting">macro rewriting</a>) within a single <code>.glyph</code> file.</p>
<div class="section">
<h5 id="h_84">Topic Layout</h5>
<p>The default layout used to render all web topics (the layout used for web5 topics is very similar) is defined as follows:</p>
	<pre class="lazy"><span class="line-numbers">   1 </span> document[
<span class="line-numbers">   2 </span>   head[
<span class="line-numbers">   3 </span>     style[default.css]
<span class="line-numbers">   4 </span>   ]
<span class="line-numbers">   5 </span>   body[
<span class="line-numbers">   6 </span>     @class[topic]
<span class="line-numbers">   7 </span>     section[
<span class="line-numbers">   8 </span>       @title[{{title}}]
<span class="line-numbers">   9 </span>       @id[{{id}}]
<span class="line-numbers">  10 </span>       navigation[{{id}}]
<span class="line-numbers">  11 </span> {{contents}}
<span class="line-numbers">  12 </span>       navigation[{{id}}]
<span class="line-numbers">  13 </span>     ]
<span class="line-numbers">  14 </span>   ]
<span class="line-numbers">  15 </span> ]
</pre>
	<p>Note that it takes the following attributes, passed automatically by Glyph when processing each topic:</p>
<ul>
	<li><code>title</code> &#8212; the title of the topic.</li>
	<li><code>id</code> &#8212; the ID of the topic.</li>
	<li><code>contents</code> &#8212; the body of the topic.</li>
</ul>

</div>
<div class="section">
<h5 id="index_layout">Index Layout</h5>
<p>The default layout used to render the web index page (the layout used for the web5 index is very similar) is defined as follows:</p>
	<pre class="lazy"><span class="line-numbers">   1 </span> document[
<span class="line-numbers">   2 </span>   head[
<span class="line-numbers">   3 </span>     style[default.css]
<span class="line-numbers">   4 </span>   ]
<span class="line-numbers">   5 </span>   body[
<span class="line-numbers">   6 </span>     @class[topic]
<span class="line-numbers">   7 </span>     halftitlepage[
<span class="line-numbers">   8 </span>       title[]
<span class="line-numbers">   9 </span>       subtitle[]
<span class="line-numbers">  10 </span>       author[]
<span class="line-numbers">  11 </span>     ]
<span class="line-numbers">  12 </span>     frontmatter[
<span class="line-numbers">  13 </span>       toc[]
<span class="line-numbers">  14 </span>     ]
<span class="line-numbers">  15 </span>   ]
<span class="line-numbers">  16 </span> ]
</pre>
	<p>Index layouts do not take any attribute or parameter (basically because they are used to produce only one page).</p>

</div>
<div class="section">
<h5 id="h_86">Creating a Custom Layout</h5>
<p>To create a custom layout, proceed as follows:</p>
<ul>
	<li>Create a <code>.glyph</code> file in the <code>lib/layouts</code> directory, within your project, e.g. <code>mytopic.glyph</code></li>
	<li>Add the layout code, making sure (for topic layouts) that all the attributes (<code>title</code>, <code>id</code>, <code>contents</code>) are specified correctly.</li>
	<li>Set the <code>output.*.layouts.topic</code> setting to the name of the new layout (<code>mytopic</code>).</li>
</ul>
	<div class="tip">
<span class="note-title">Tip</span>You can override which layout to use on a specific topic by specifying it in a <code>@layout</code> attribute.
