Segments

Effortless assignability to individual Elements.

Reader: Designer

The Segment function closely resembles the element function, enabling users to design and customize the user interface with comparable versatility. Just as with Elements, you can meticulously shape and refine the interface of segments, tailoring their presentation to specific preferences. Notably, the defining characteristic of segments is their seamless assignability to individual Elements. This unique attribute empowers users to enhance and fine-tune the layout and appearance of elements by strategically integrating segments, offering a dynamic and flexible approach to interface design.
