Insert containers laid out as side-by-side columns.
Inserts a number of multi-element containers laid out side-by-side and returns a list of container objects.
To add elements to the returned containers, you can use "with" notation (preferred) or just call methods directly on the returned object. See examples below.
Warning
Currently, you may not put columns inside another column.
| Function signature | |
|---|---|
st.columns(spec, *, gap="small") | |
| Parameters | |
spec (int or list of numbers) |
|
gap (string ("small", "medium", or "large")) | An optional string, which indicates the size of the gap between each column. The default is a small gap between columns. This argument can only be supplied by keyword. |

(list of containers) | A list of container objects. |
Examples
You can use with notation to insert any element into a column:
import streamlit as st col1, col2, col3 = st.columns(3) with col1: st.header("A cat") st.image("https://static.streamlit.io/examples/cat.jpg") with col2: st.header("A dog") st.image("https://static.streamlit.io/examples/dog.jpg") with col3: st.header("An owl") st.image("https://static.streamlit.io/examples/owl.jpg")(view standalone Streamlit app)Or you can just call methods directly in the returned objects:
import streamlit as st import numpy as np col1, col2 = st.columns([3, 1]) data = np.random.randn(10, 1) col1.subheader("A wide column with a chart") col1.line_chart(data) col2.subheader("A narrow column with the data") col2.write(data)(view standalone Streamlit app)
