Add ThreeColumnLayout to the composition.
Sidebar + Main + Sidebar arrangements with configurable widths.
For video content in columns, use VideoContent component:
Example left column with video:
{
"type": "VideoContent",
"config": {
"src": "https://example.com/video.mp4",
"muted": true,
"fit": "cover",
"loop": true
}
}
Args:
left: JSON component for left column (format: {"type": "ComponentName", "config": {...}})
center: JSON component for center column (format: {"type": "ComponentName", "config": {...}})
right: JSON component for right column (format: {"type": "ComponentName", "config": {...}})
left_width: Left column width (percentage)
center_width: Center column width (percentage)
right_width: Right column width (percentage)
gap: Gap between columns
padding: Padding from edges
duration: Duration in seconds
track: Track name (default: "main")
gap_before: Gap before component in seconds
Returns:
JSON with component info
