Two Columns Page Layout
已完成Our executive summary in our MD&A used the two columns page layout in classic documents, but when I just transitioned to next gen docs for our September reporting, it reverted back to normal. I don't see an option to change the page layout back to two columns.
Do you know of any work around, or am I maybe missing where the page layout option is?
This might make transitioning at this time not possible for us, but I'm really pushing to adopt the next gen docs now that it's available.
Any ideas on how to make this possible would be greatly appreciated!!

Hi all!
Wanted to let you know the good news. A recent release to Wdesk has now made multi-columns available in next gen Documents!
If you have any questions about this new feature setting, just give me a holler. Have a great day in the meantime. Cheers!
Hi Dan!
Two column page layout is planned to be available in next gen Documents during Q4 2019. More info about what's coming and what's available can be found here: https://success.workiva.com/help/next-gen/plan-next/features-transition. In addition, you can stay apprised of releases by following the What's New topic, here: https://support.workiva.com/hc/en-us/community/topics/360001198991-What-s-New.
As far as workarounds, I haven't heard of too many, outside of putting a two column table in your document and adding text there. But that might be more trouble than its worth.
I've shared your feedback with our Product Team but in the meantime, let me know what questions you have or if you need anything else. Thanks, and have an awesome day!0
Ok cool, I'll keep an eye out for that by following the what's new topic.
I tried adding a table, but there doesn't appear to be a way to insert a chart into a table. Our executive summary has charts and graphs on the left, and then text on the right. It doesn't look like it will be possible.
I've copied the old MD&A in classic documents, and deleted all other sections except for the executive summary and rebuilt the links to this month's spreadsheet. For now, I'll use Classic docs for the executive summary, next gen for everything else, and then merge them together in Word once we're done. This seems to be the best band-aid solution until this get's updated in next gen docs.
Thanks!

Ah, good call there. You are correct, you can't insert a Chart into a table, but you can insert an image. But as you point out, with the left and right charts/graphs, it might not be feasible.
Your plan of having a hybrid for the time being seems like the best one and I'll definitely see if I can get this feature some added love and attention in Q4. Thanks for all the info!0
Hi Mike, is hte tw column format available in next gen documents yet? You mentioned it was planned for Q4 2019. We are looking to migrate to next gen but won't be able to without this. Thanks

Hi Jana,
Ah, good catch there. Currently it is not available, though it should be very soon. We adjusted our priorities on some features and support for two columns was pushed back in Q1 2020. I've connected your request to our existing ticket internally so you can follow along. Once this is released, you should also see it announced here in the What's New topic, but I'll also update this post as well.
Thanks for keeping me honest, and do let me know if you have any questions or need anything else. Happy President's Day in the meantime. Cheers!0
Good morning - I just wanted to throw in my support for getting this feature up and running as soon as possible. We use it in our proxy, which will be filed at the end of Q1.

Yes!! Thanks Mike, I saw it in the "Support" email this morning and got just about as excited as that GIF above haha. I'll now be able to bring our executive summary back to next gen for Feb reporting :)
Thanks
Dan
