In questions asking advice, this layout is self-explanatory. The main thing is to determine the difference between tiles #2 and #3. #1 is the topic and #4 is the result.
In questions regarding confusion, such as: "What was the meaning of Tile (X) in the last spread?" the main thing is also to determine the difference between tiles #2 and #3. In this case, #2 will show what the tile was not referring to, and Tile #3 will show what was really meant. Tile #1 is the topic and #4 represents the purpose it serves.
