# Column Break
## `colbreak`
Forces a column break.
The function will behave like a [page break]($pagebreak) when used in a
single column layout or the last column on a page. Otherwise, content after
the column break will be placed in the next column.
# Example
```example
#set page(columns: 2)
Preliminary findings from our
ongoing research project have
revealed a hitherto unknown
phenomenon of extraordinary
significance.
#colbreak()
Through rigorous experimentation
and analysis, we have discovered
a hitherto uncharacterized process
that defies our current
understanding of the fundamental
laws of nature.
```
## Parameters
### weak
If `{true}`, the column break is skipped if the current column is
already empty.
## Returns
- content
