How do you add a vertical divider in Adalo?

Add a lightweight vertical divider with Adalo’s marketplace component, then set its color, thickness, height, and responsive placement.

THE SHORT ANSWER 🎯

Add the Vertical Line marketplace component, set its color and width, and resize its frame to the required height. Use it as a visual separator only; keep related content grouped structurally.

Use the dedicated Vertical Line component for a resizable divider instead of rotating or compressing unrelated components. Keep the line inside the layout container whose content it separates.

WHAT YOU’LL HAVE 🎯

The intended outcome

The screen has a consistent vertical separator that works across Web, iOS, and Android.

BEFORE YOU START 🧰

Requirements

  • The Vertical Line marketplace component
  • A screen or container with two areas that need visual separation
BUILD IT 🛠️

Step by step

  1. 01

    Add Vertical Line

    Open Marketplace Components, search for Vertical Line, and place the component between the two content areas.

  2. 02

    Set its appearance

    Choose the line color and a width between 1 and 20 pixels, then resize the component to the intended height.

  3. 03

    Anchor it responsively

    Place the line inside the same responsive container as the content it separates and test the alignment at every target width.

WHY IT WORKS 🧠

The underlying logic

The dedicated component renders a centered, lightweight line whose height follows its component frame.

A divider communicates grouping visually but does not create layout structure or accessibility semantics by itself.

EVIDENCE CONTEXT 🔎

What still needs checking?

  • This is a forum-native answer with no original Adalocado video.
  • Adalo staff announced the Vertical Line marketplace component for Web, iOS, and Android.
IF IT DOESN’T WORK 🧯

Common failure modes

The line shifts away from the content

Move it into the same parent container and review the component’s anchoring and responsive layout settings.

The divider looks too heavy

Reduce the width, lower the color contrast, and reserve strong lines for boundaries that users must notice.

BOUNDARIES 🚧

Current limitations
