# Select Layout

The first step that determines the overall look of the configurator is "Select Layout", where users can select from 8 different layouts.

Depending on your configurator, not all layouts may be suitable for what you need. For example, if you have a lot of options for users to choose from, we recommend layouts with options on either the right or left side of the screen. If you only have a few options you can use "Steps" [sections](/learning-the-app/products/create-options/sections.md) (discussed later in this chapter) with one option per step, for example, the horizontal layout block (2 or 4 layout) can be a good option.

**Use the 'Preview' button in the top-right corner to test different layouts while building your configurator, and choose the one that works best.**
