Classroom seating

This page shows how a classroom grid and keep-apart rule are described. It has no name fields. Names go in the seating editor, a separate site with no third-party advertising or analytics. The privacy notice explains Save in this browser, Load saved copy, Delete saved copy, and downloads.

The sample room is 6 rows by 4 seats, 24 places, numbered across each row from the front. Default keep-apart is the seat to the left or right in the same row. A front, back, or diagonal rule is a different selection. The grid below is a diagram, not a live chart.

A lock and a keep-apart rule can contradict each other, for example when two people who must sit apart are both locked into neighboring seats. The editor names that conflict and does not export the layout. Five people and four seats is a capacity conflict, and the editor reports it before searching. A search that hits its time limit has not proved that no arrangement exists.

When you are ready to type names, open the seating editor. The link does not carry a class list. You can label seats with Person 1 and Person 2 if you do not want real names in the browser. A file you later download can still contain whatever you typed.

The longer notes on rules, wedding tables, and conflicts are linked with the guides below. Those pages are explanations too. They do not embed the editor.
