The responsive grid layout provides rules for layout design and resolves issues of dynamic layout across devices with different sizes, thereby ensuring layout consistency across layouts on different devices.
The GridRow component is used in a grid layout, together with its child component GridCol.
This component is supported since API version 9. Updates will be marked with a superscript to indicate their earliest API version.
This component can contain the GridCol child component.

Describes the numbers of grid columns for devices with different grid sizes.
In versions earlier than API version 20: When GridRow column spans are configured only at specific breakpoints, unconfigured breakpoints inherit values from the next smaller configured breakpoint. If no smaller breakpoint exists, the default column count (12) is used for unconfigured breakpoints.
columns: {xs:2, md:4, lg:8} // Equivalent to columns: {xs:2, sm:2, md:4, lg:8, xl:8, xxl:8}.
columns: {md:4, lg:8} // Equivalent to columns: {xs:12, sm:12, md:4, lg:8, xl:8, xxl:8}. Since API version 20: When GridRow column spans are configured only at specific breakpoints, unconfigured breakpoints inherit values from the next smaller configured breakpoint. If no smaller breakpoint exists, values are inherited from the next larger configured breakpoint.
columns: {xs:2, md:4, lg:8} // Equivalent to columns: {xs:2, sm:2, md:4, lg:8, xl:8, xxl:8}.
columns: {md:4, lg:8} // Equivalent to columns: {xs:4, sm:4, md:4, lg:8, xl:8, xxl:8}. Recommendation: Explicitly configure GridRow column spans for all required breakpoints to prevent unexpected layout behavior caused by automatic value inheritance.
The width of each column is the content area size of the GridRow component minus the gutter of the grid child components, and then divided by the total number of columns. For example, if columns is set to 12, gutter is set to 10px, and padding is set to 20px for a GridRow component with a width of 800 px, the width of each column is (800 – 20 × 2 – 10 × 11)/12.

Grid element arrangement direction.
Grid elements can be arranged only in the Row or RowReverse direction, but not in the Column or ColumnReverse direction.
The location and size of a grid child component can be calculated only based on span and offset. If the span values of child components add up to a number greater than the allowed number of columns, the grid will automatically wrap lines.
If the span value of a single child component exceeds the maximum number of columns, the maximum number of columns is used.
If a child component takes up more than the total number of columns according to its offset and span settings, it will be placed in a new row.
Example: Item1: GridCol({ span: 6 }), Item2: GridCol({ span: 8, offset:11 })

Widget capability: This API can be used in ArkTS widgets since API version 9.
Atomic service API: This API can be used in atomic services since API version 11.
System capability: SystemCapability.ArkUI.ArkUI.Full
| Name | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Row | 0 | Grid elements are arranged in the row direction. |
| RowReverse | 1 | Grid elements are arranged in the reverse row direction. |
In addition to the universal attributes, the following attributes are supported.
alignItems(value: ItemAlign)
Sets the alignment mode of the GridCol components along the vertical main axis of the GridRow component. The alignment mode of the GridCol component can also be set using alignSelf(ItemAlign). If both of the preceding methods are used, the setting of alignSelf(ItemAlign) prevails.
Widget capability: This API can be used in ArkTS widgets since API version 10.
Atomic service API: This API can be used in atomic services since API version 11.
System capability: SystemCapability.ArkUI.ArkUI.Full
Parameters
| Name | Type | Mandatory | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| value | ItemAlign | Yes | Alignment mode of the GridCol components along the vertical main axis of the GridRow component. Default value: ItemAlign.Start Invalid values are treated as the default value. NOTE ItemAlign supports the following enums: ItemAlign.Start, ItemAlign.Center, ItemAlign.End, and ItemAlign.Stretch. |
In addition to the universal events, the following events are supported.
onBreakpointChange(callback: (breakpoints: string) => void)
Triggered when the breakpoint changes.
Widget capability: This API can be used in ArkTS widgets since API version 9.
Atomic service API: This API can be used in atomic services since API version 11.
System capability: SystemCapability.ArkUI.ArkUI.Full
Parameters
| Name | Type | Mandatory | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| callback | (breakpoints: string) => void | Yes | Breakpoint change. The value can be "xs", "sm", "md", "lg", "xl", or "xxl". |
This example demonstrates the basic usage of the GridRow component.
// xxx.ets
@Entry
@Component
struct GridRowExample {
@State bgColors: Color[] = [Color.Red, Color.Orange, Color.Yellow, Color.Green, Color.Pink, Color.Grey, Color.Blue, Color.Brown]
@State currentBp: string = 'unknown'
build() {
Column() {
GridRow({
columns: 5,
gutter: { x: 5, y: 10 },
breakpoints: { value: ['400vp', '600vp', '800vp'],
reference: BreakpointsReference.WindowSize },
direction: GridRowDirection.Row
}) {
ForEach(this.bgColors, (color: Color) => {
GridCol({ span: { xs: 1, sm: 2, md: 3, lg: 4 }, offset: 0, order: 0 }) {
Row().width('100%').height('20vp')
}.borderColor(color).borderWidth(2)
})
}.width('100%').height('100%')
.onBreakpointChange((breakpoint) => {
this.currentBp = breakpoint
})
}.width('80%').margin({ left: 10, top: 5, bottom: 5 }).height(200)
.border({ color: '#880606', width: 2 })
}
} 
This example demonstrates the effect of the GridCol component in different alignItems alignment modes.

switch (alignment) {

case ItemAlign.End:
return "ItemAlign.End";
