Are you looking to disabled Layout menu, to stop authors from resizing?

Need some help to understand the requirement.

    Hi @aanchal-sikka 

    Layout container gives some additional elements which are hard to handle with UI. So Is there any way we can get rid of it  ?

      First: Container is the component, which allows authors to add more components to the page by Drag-n-drop etc. 

      If we take container out, we would have to pre-configure all components that a page can hold. Basically hard-code the structure

       

       

      Second: The benefits that editable template provide like structure updates are auto-synced to pages, or author can resize components, will also be lost ...

       

      In summary, we cannot get rid of it

        You just need to use the 'container' component, which is the recommended one (this inherits from the layout component). Usually, you should have your own container component extended from the core component. Then you can simply select the 'Simple' option from the layout options. Doing this at the template level will do the trick.

         

        Learn more about the container component here: https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-manager-core-components/using/wcm-components/container.html?lang=en 

         

        Hope this helps
