These modules are nested for intention flow .. and an event table at the bottom. (advanced xml)

<module 1>...
 ...
 <module 2> ...
   ...
   <module 3> ...

They are all within the same layoutPanel and column.

i would like to line them up horizontally to make pretty... since they are nested splunk ui tries to line them up vertically w/ different sizes and such.

custom css? custom html template?

was looking for easiest solution.

TIA, Kirby

Have you tried with grouping?

<module 1 layoutPanel="panel_row1_col1_grp1">...
 ...
 <module 2 layoutPanel="panel_row1_col1_grp2"> ...
   ...
   <module 3 layoutPanel="panel_row1_col1_grp3"> ...

However, which kinds of modules are those? could you post more details?

I use either GenericHeader or StaticContentSample for my first module to give a title to the panel

 <module name="GenericHeader" layoutPanel="panel_row1_col1">
   <param name="label">Your Header</param>   
    </module><!-- /GenericHeader-->

Followed with the other modules needed for that view

  <module 2 layoutPanel="panel_row1_col1_grp1">

   <module 3 layoutPanel="panel_row1_col1_grp2">

Hope that helps
