Class RegionLayout

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    com.globalmentor.beans.PropertyBindable, com.globalmentor.beans.PropertyConstrainable, Layout<RegionConstraints>

    public class RegionLayout
    extends AbstractLayout<RegionConstraints>
    A layout that defines locations of components in internationalized relative terms. This layout uses default constraints of Region.CENTER.

    The region will span two of the components, if present, across the perpendicular flow. Which flow is spanned across the other is determined by setting setSpanFlow(Flow). For example, in a right-to-left top-to-bottom orientation, a span flow of Flow.LINE (the default) will result in the top and bottom components spanning across the space used by the left, center, and right components.
