Layouts can be used to easily organize multiple menu items, support dynamic menus with a varying number of components or create scrollable menus.
When a new component is added to the Horizontal Layout it will automatically be placed next to the component added before it.
When components are reordered in the hierarchy panel they will automatically change position in the layout.
