Tiles & Frames

Understand the role of tiles as the fundamental content unit in Amondo.

Content in Amondo can be displayed via Imprints in two different ways: as a Tile or as a Frame. The state depends on the format being used. Tiles are the default for grid-based layouts, while Frames are the default for full-screen layouts such as Stories. Both representations draw from the same underlying content.

Tiles

Tiles are the default representation of content when displayed in grid-based formats such as Gallery, Carousel or Display (when Display is in grid mode).

Tiles are compact, visually consistent units designed to work together in a grid. They typically include media (image or video), text, and any interactive features like clickthroughs or polls.

Frames

Frames are the full-screen representation of content. They are the default in Stories, where each piece of content is displayed one at a time in an immersive, swipe-through experience.

Frames can also appear in other formats when content is expanded or highlighted, for example:

• Clicking on a Tile in a Gallery or Carousel will open it as a Frame.

• Display format can run in “hero mode” showing Frames one by one like a slideshow

When to use tiles vs frames

• Use Tiles when presenting multiple pieces of content together in a grid.

• Use Frames when presenting content one at a time in full-screen or immersive mode.

The underlying content is the same: Tiles and Frames simply define how that content is rendered in different contexts.
