public static enum LayoutStyle.ComponentPlacement extends Enum<LayoutStyle.ComponentPlacement>
ComponentPlacement
is an enumeration of the possible ways two components can be placed relative to each other. ComponentPlacement
is used by the LayoutStyle
method getPreferredGap
. Refer to LayoutStyle
for more information.
LayoutStyle.getPreferredGap(JComponent,JComponent,
ComponentPlacement,int,Container)
public static final LayoutStyle.ComponentPlacement RELATED
Enumeration value indicating the two components are visually related and will be placed in the same parent. For example, a JLabel
providing a label for a JTextField
is typically visually associated with the JTextField
; the constant RELATED
is used for this.
public static final LayoutStyle.ComponentPlacement UNRELATED
Enumeration value indicating the two components are visually unrelated and will be placed in the same parent. For example, groupings of components are usually visually separated; the constant UNRELATED
is used for this.
public static final LayoutStyle.ComponentPlacement INDENT
Enumeration value indicating the distance to indent a component is being requested. For example, often times the children of a label will be horizontally indented from the label. To determine the preferred distance for such a gap use the INDENT
type.
This value is typically only useful with a direction of EAST
or WEST
.
public static LayoutStyle.ComponentPlacement[] values()
Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:
for (LayoutStyle.ComponentPlacement c : LayoutStyle.ComponentPlacement.values()) System.out.println(c);
public static LayoutStyle.ComponentPlacement valueOf(String name)
Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
