Gridbag Constraints Properties

Description of the gridbag constraints set of properties.

Syntax

constraints = createConstraints("gridbag")
constraints = createConstraints("gridbag", grid)
constraints = createConstraints("gridbag", grid, weight)
constraints = createConstraints("gridbag", grid, weight, fill)
constraints = createConstraints("gridbag", grid, weight, fill, anchor)
constraints = createConstraints("gridbag", grid, weight, fill, anchor, padding)
constraints = createConstraints("gridbag", grid, weight, fill, anchor, padding, preferredsize)

Arguments

grid

[pos_x, pos_y, width, height] a 1-by-4 matrix of double, [0, 0, 0, 0] by default.

pos_x and pos_x are the coordinates of the element on a virtual grid.

width and height are the width and height of the element on the virtual grid.

weight

[weight_x, weight_y] a 1-by-2 matrix of doubles, [0, 0] by default.

The weights applied for the resize on either axes.

A larger value means the element will get more space during resize.

fill

A string

{"none"} | "horizontal" | "vertical" | "both"

Indicates how to fill the available space during resize on either direction (or both).

anchor

A string

{"center"} | "upper" | "upper_right" | "right" | "lower_right" | "lower" | "lower_left" | "left" | "upper_left"

Tells where to anchor the element when it is smaller than the area it is nested in.

padding

[pad_x, pad_y] a 1-by-2 matrix of doubles, [0 0] by default

Padding between this element and elements around it.

preferred_size

[p_size_x, p_size_y] a 1-by-2 matrix of doubles, [-1 -1] by default

Preferred size in pixel when not constrained, used to avoid changing the size when resizing the nesting frame.

constraints

The created constraints.
