Method Detail

getOrientation

int getOrientation()

Gets the orientation of this flow layout. It can be HORIZONTAL or VERTICAL.

Returns:

the orientation.

setOrientation

void setOrientation(int pOrientation)

Sets the orientation of this flow layout. It can be HORIZONTAL or VERTICAL.

Parameters:

pOrientation - the orientation.

getComponentAlignment

int getComponentAlignment()

Gets the alignment between the components. For horizontal orientation the component alignment can be ALIGN_TOP, ALIGN_CENTER, ALIGN_BOTTOM or ALIGN_STRETCH for vertical orientation ALIGN_LEFT, ALIGN_CENTER, ALIGN_RIGHT or ALIGN_STRETCH. Switching the orientation maps top to left and bottom to right alignment.

Returns:

the component alignment.

setComponentAlignment

void setComponentAlignment(int pComponentAlignment)

Sets the alignment between the components. For horizontal orientation the component alignment can be ALIGN_TOP, ALIGN_CENTER, ALIGN_BOTTOM or ALIGN_STRETCH for vertical orientation ALIGN_LEFT, ALIGN_CENTER, ALIGN_RIGHT or ALIGN_STRETCH. Switching the orientation maps top to left and bottom to right alignment.

Parameters:

pComponentAlignment - the component alignment.

isSquareComponents

boolean isSquareComponents()

Gets the square components mode. If it is true, all components are sqared.

Returns:

the square components mode.

setSquareComponents

void setSquareComponents(boolean pSquareComponents)

Sets the square components mode. If it is true, all components are sqared.

Parameters:

pSquareComponents - the square components mode.

isAutoWrap

boolean isAutoWrap()

Gets the current state of the automatic wrap mode.

Returns:

true if the automatic wrap mode is enabled; otherwise false

setAutoWrap

void setAutoWrap(boolean pAutoWrap)

Sets the automatic wrap mode. This means that the layout acts like the FlowLayout.

Parameters:

pAutoWrap - true to enabled the auto wrap mode, false otherwise
