Basic usage

Setting the break-after behavior

Use the break-after-{value} utilities to control how a column or page break should behave after an element. For example, use the break-after-column utility to force a column break after an element.

html
<div class="columns-2">
  <p>Well, let me tell you something, ...</p>
  <p class="break-after-column">Sure, go ahead, laugh...</p>
  <p>Maybe we can live without...</p>
  <p>Look. If you think this is...</p>
</div>

Applying conditionally

Breakpoints and media queries

You can also use variant modifiers to target media queries like responsive breakpoints, dark mode, prefers-reduced-motion, and more. For example, use md:break-after-column to apply the break-after-column utility at only medium screen sizes and above.

html
<div class="md:break-after-column">
  <!-- ... -->
</div>
