    Pourquoi et quand exécuter cette tâche

    A method of increasing page usability is to tailor components by adjusting the layout across breakpoints. There are numerous options for adjusting the layout. In this procedure, adjust the layout of the tabs component for the mobile form factor.

    Most column layout options on the property pane can be edited for different form factors. However, the following options have global values across form factors:
    • Number of columns
    • Stack columns below (pixels) option
    • All options under Accessibility
