Family - Row

This page unifies related iced::widget APIs for the Row family.

# API surfaces

• Module: iced::widget::row
• Constructor: iced::widget::row
• Element: iced::widget::Row

# Surface summaries

# Module

Distribute content horizontally.

# Constructor

Creates a new Row from an iterator.

# Element

Creates a Stack with the given children.

# Verified constructor signature

pub fn row<'a, Message, Theme, Renderer>(
    children: impl IntoIterator<Item = Element<'a, Message, Theme, Renderer>>,
) -> Row<'a, Message, Theme, Renderer>
where
    Renderer: Renderer,

# Verified element declaration

pub struct Row<'a, Message, Theme = Theme, Renderer = Renderer<Renderer, Renderer>> { /* private fields */ }

# Inline Examples (from rustdoc)

# Constructor example

use iced::widget::{row, text};

enum Message {
    // ...
}

fn view(state: &State) -> Element<'_, Message> {
    row((0..5).map(|i| text!("Item {i}").into())).into()
}

# Element example

use iced::widget::{button, row};

#[derive(Debug, Clone)]
enum Message {
    // ...
}

fn view(state: &State) -> Element<'_, Message> {
    row![
        "I am to the left!",
        button("I am in the middle!"),
        "I am to the right!",
    ].into()
}

# Use this when...

• You want one page that links module, constructor, and element surfaces.
• You are deciding which API surface to start from.
• You need a practical map for this widget domain.

# Minimal example

// Typical flow:
// 1) Start with constructor usage.
// 2) Move to module docs for style/state details.
// 3) Use element docs for type-level control.

# How it works

Family pages connect related docs so you do not miss capabilities that are split across constructor/module/element pages.

# Common patterns

// Build with constructor APIs first,
// then refine behavior/styles through related module and element docs.

# Gotchas / tips

• Family routes normalize naming; module/function/struct names may differ slightly.
• Prefer this page as your entrypoint when learning unfamiliar widgets.
• Follow example references here before inventing integration patterns.
