# Custom content layouts

Create, manage, and reuse content layouts for Scenes.

Save Scene content as a custom layout and reuse it as a starting point for new Scenes. Create a layout from scratch or save the content of any existing Scene. Each project supports up to 250 layouts.

## Create a layout

Create new layouts from your project dashboard:

1. Go to **Content** and select **Scene Layouts**.
1. Select **Create layout**.
1. Enter a name and description. Layout names do not have to be unique, so make sure to add a description.
1. Select **Save**.
1. Configure [Scene behaviors](https://www.airship.com/docs/guides/messaging/editors/native/behaviors/), the [root appearance](https://www.airship.com/docs/guides/messaging/editors/native/root/), and [individual screens](https://www.airship.com/docs/guides/messaging/editors/native/screens/).
1. Select **Save layout**.

## Save existing content as a layout

You can save any Scene's content as a layout, including Scenes built from a default layout that you then customized.

While editing the content of a Scene:

1. Select **Save as layout**.
1. Enter a name and description. Layout names do not have to be unique, so make sure to add a description.
1. Select **Save**.
1. If you do not need to send the current Scene, select the down arrow icon (
) next to **Exit**, then select **Delete**. Otherwise, complete content configuration.

## Managing layouts

Go to **Content** and select **Scene Layouts** to view the list of custom layouts in your project. Your last modified layout is listed first. You can sort the list by name or date modified, filter by keyword, and search by layout name, description, or keyword.

Select a layout name to open a drawer where you can do the following:
   * Edit the name, description, and keywords. Select **Save** after making your changes.
   * Select **Edit** or **Duplicate**, which are the same as the actions available from the more menu icon (), as described in the table below.
   * View the date and time when the layout was created and last modified.

The following actions are available from the more menu icon () in the layouts list:
