Hi,

I’m working on a tennis app where each match has **Player A** and an **opponent**. On the match detail screen, I want to display :

- Player A avatar + name

- “VS” text

- Opponent avatar + name

I’d like them to appear **side by side** (horizontal) at the top of the screen just like most of Livescore apps.

Here’s what I’ve tried so far:

1. Using a **Template column** to combine `{Player A Avatar} | VS | {Opponent Avatar}` → Glide only shows text, not images.

2. Using **Cards** → only allows one item per card, so I can’t show both avatars in the same card.

3. Containers → no option for horizontal layout for fixed items.

It seems that in Glide modern, there is **no Row / Inline Horizontal for fixed components**.

**Questions:**

- Is there a **native way** to display 2 avatars + names side by side on a detail screen?

- If not, what is the **recommended workaround** in Glide ? (I’ve seen mentions of using Inline Lists or combining into a single column, but nothing works for my use case.)

Thanks in advance for any guidance!  
Cheers from France,  
Lionel

Not that I know of.

I would explore two options: the custom AI component and the rich text component.

Tennis x Glide, does it get any better than that?
