When designing for adaptive layouts on the round screen, scrolling and non-scrolling views each have unique requirements for scaling UI elements and maintaining a balanced layout and composition. The images below are broad suggestions; examples are for illustrative purposes only. View each component or surface page for detailed, contextual and responsive guidance.

## More content at a glance

Responsive layouts allow for more chips, cards, lines of text, and buttons to fit on a single screen.
