Feature request: column limit on horizontal-layout-groups, to simulate flex-grids.

I also have a case where there are between 2 and ca. 10 entries and I'd like to display a maximum of 3 or 4 in a single row.

• More meta-data - e.g. description of a template
• Sorting options - e.g. sort by name, etc

</dd></dl><dl><dt>Special:Flags </dt><dd> -- Dessamator

• Custom groups - any chance of collapsing custom groups in the Flags entry point ?
• Temporary flags - perhaps it would be good to set some time for a flag to expire? Using lua I can program it to not show anything, will a flag not show when there isn't any returned content in a template?
• Dismissing flags on mobile or desktop on demand?

<dl><dt>Flags/API </dt><dd>I made a comment about the Flags API documentation which frankly seems like it was written by Wikia Staff Developers for Wikia Staff developers: </dd></dl>

• Flags/API

<dl><dd>Does the api for making changes e.g. addFlagsToPage and addFlagType actually work, and if so can you add some <i>working</i> examples for post requests to the documentation? </dd></dl><dl><dt>Mobile preview </dt></dl><dl><dd>As far as I know VisualEditor will eventually replace the RichTextEditor which contains a mobile preview, so are there any plans to add a mobile preview button to visual editor?  </dd></dl><dl><dt> Mobile compatible tools </dt></dl><dl><dd> The Help pages  contain a lot of information about features that may or may not be mobile friendly, for example tools such as Help:Tabview, Help:Tabber, Easy timeline. It seems that the documentation is working against your mobile efforts. </dd></dl><dl><dd> Also some tools like richtext editor deliberately add inline styling, for example, when adding a table it sets the borders, width height. It also adds inline styling when aligning text, and so forth. </dd><dd>Are there any plans to either revamp these pages or refactor these tools (esp. RichText editor) to make them mobile friendly, or alternatively deprecate or remove them? </dd></dl><dl><dt>Infobox Preview </dt><dd> One difficulty in testing new templates is that we can't see both the old version and the new version simultaneously. So when we are tweaking the templates, this becomes harder. </dd></dl><dl><dd>Is there any chance that when we use a draft, e.g. Infobox/Draft it will also pull in the original template and display it side by side for comparison and styling? </dd></dl>
