Alignment: Analyze


A table of contents (TOC) is grouped information from a larger text that needs to clearly present itself in a way that allows readers to quickly see a text's overall organization and contents. A strong alignment can help readers scan the text quickly. In this example from a digital book meant to be read online, there are a lot of navigation elements on the screen and a strong left alignment for all groups of elements.
