/** This class implements a combination of the GridBag and Border layouts. The

  * cells. If a component is smaller than its cell, it can be aligned both horizontally
  * and vertically. The width of a column is the width of its largest component. The

  * column can be expandable, that is its width/height changes depending on the container"s
  * size.<BR><BR>
  * <B>General design issues:</B><BR>
  * First, decide the grid size. Consider that some components (like panels) usually
  * spread over more cells so it is a good idea to make the grid a little bigger.<BR><BR>
  * Second, decide which row/column expand (this is done by the setColProp/setRowProp
  * methods).<BR><BR>
  * Third, add components to container (layout) giving proper constraints.<BR><BR>
  * <B>Example:</B><BR><PRE>
  * FlexLayout flexL = new FlexLayout(2, 3, 4, 4); //--- (1)
  * flexL.setColProp(1, FlexLayout.EXPAND);        //--- (2)
  * flexL.setRowProp(2, FlexLayout.EXPAND);        //--- (3)
  * setLayout(flexL);                              //--- (4)
  *
  * add("0,0",       new Label("Name"));         //--- (5)
  * add("0,1",       new Label("Surname"));      //--- (6)
  * add("1,0,x",     textField);                 //--- (7)
  * add("1,1,x",     textField);                 //--- (8)
  * add("0,2,x,x,2", panel);                     //--- (9)
  * </PRE><BR>
  * <I>Description:</I><BR>
  * line 1: creates a FlexLayout of 2 columns and 3 rows. The two 4 represent the gap
  * between each column and each row. To modify this gap use setXgap and setYgap.<BR>
  * line 2 & 3: column 1 and row 2 are set to expandable (the default is USEPREFERRED)
  * remember that row and column id starts from index 0.<BR>
  * line 4: the layout is added to the container.<BR>
  * line 5 & 6: add two labels in position (0,0) and (0,1)
  * line 7 & 8: add two textfields in position (1,0) and (1,1). The x means that the
  * width will be expanded to occupy all column size. Because column 1 is set to expandable,
  * when the container is resized the textfields are resized too.<BR>
  * line 9: adds a panel in position (0,2). Then panel is expanded both horizontally and
  * vertically and spreads over 2 cells in x direction.<BR><BR>
  * The complete command string is:<BR><PRE>
  * "x,y,xa,ya,xs,ys" where:
  *   x,y specify the component position (are the column-row indexes)
  *   xa specifies the x align of the component and can be:
  *     l - for left
  *     c - for center
  *     r - for right
  *     x - exands the component"s width
  *     (default is l)
  *   ya specifies the y align of the component and can be:
  *     t - for top
  *     c - for center
  *     b - for bottom
  *     x - exands the component"s height
  *     (default is c)
  *   xs and ys specify the number or columns/rows occupied by the component (default is 1)
  * </PRE>
  * <B>Notes:</B><BR>
  * - if a component occupies more than 1 cell in x direction, its preferred width is NOT
  *  taken into account (same for y).<BR>
  * - if a column / row is empty, its size is set to a default value. This value can be
  * changed using setXNullgap/setYNullgap methods.
  * <BR><BR>
  * Have fun!!!

/**
 * The <code>GraphPaperLayout</code> class is a layout manager that lays out a
 * container"s components in a rectangular grid, similar to GridLayout. Unlike
 * GridLayout, however, components can take up multiple rows and/or columns. The
 * layout manager acts as a sheet of graph paper. When a component is added to
 * the layout manager, the location and relative size of the component are
 * simply supplied by the constraints as a Rectangle.

// and a status panel.  The two buttons are placed next to each other
// in the upper right.  When the window is sized wider, the buttons
// will move to the right to stick near the edge of the window.
//
// The midPanel is placed in the center and when the window is sized
// larger (in both dimensions), the panel will grow wider and taller.
//
// The statusBar is placed on the bottom and sticks to the bottom of
// the panel when it is sized larger or smaller in height (it moves
// down if the window it is contained in is sized to a larger height).
// It will grow wider if the window it is contained in is sized wider.
//
// The advantage of the FunLayout is that you place components where you
// want them to appear (best when using an interface builder) and still
// have control over what happens during sizing.
//
// This is the default layout mechanism many interface systems use, such
// as Netscape"s IFC.  In fact, if you use this layout manager, you will
// find porting your code to Netscape"s IFC much easier, as the layout
// container here is very similar to Netscape"s IFC layout mechanism.

//
//   layout.movesRight(comp);
//   layout.movesDown(comp);
//   layout.widthChanges(comp);
//   layout.heightChanges(comp);
//
// When you determine which to choose, you should ask "What should the
// component do when the window is sized larger?"
//
// If you don"t call any of the above methods for a component, it will
// simply stay at its current location.

/**
 * <p>
 * RelativeLayout, a Relative Layout Manager for Java J2SE. Mainly for porting
 * tired old code that uses x,y locations. You really can"t just assign x,y
 * locations to components in Java Java J2SE - it breaks badly when the user
 * resizes (and you can <em>not</em> mandate that the user can"t resize you --
 * see any book on UI design for <em>that</em> little discussion -- and can
 * also look bad due to resolution independance. Symantec Cafe 1.x, for example,
 * used to spit out unfortunate (and unmaintainable) code like this:
 * 
 * <pre>
 * setLayout(null);
 * setSize(331, 241);
 * label1 = new Label(&quot;Info Applet&quot;, Label.CENTER);
 * add(label1);
 * label1.setBounds(91, 19, 107, 15);
 * </pre>
 * 
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * <em>Bleaarrgghh!!!</em> To make it work properly at all resolutions and
 * survive user-initiated resize actions, change it to
 * 
 * <pre>
 * 
 *   setLayout(new RelativeLayout(331,241,false);
 *   label1=new Label(&quot;Info Applet&quot;, Label.CENTER);
 *   add(&quot;91,19&quot;, label1);
 *  
 * </pre>
 * 
 * Note that it"s actually <EM>less</EM> work to get it right. Symantec,
 * Microsoft, and others, please take note!

/**
 * A rather unique LayoutManager. In addition to laying out components relative
 * to the container, it also supports layout relative to components <i>within</i>
 * the container. Its purpose is to support arbitrarily complex component
 * layouts, of an unlimited number of components, within a single container. It
 * can easily create complex layouts that would otherwise require many
 * subpanels, and multiple standard layout managers. It also can create layouts
 * that are completely <i>impossible</i>, with standard layout managers. These
 * features make this layout manager extremely flexible, and makes
 * advancedlayouts extremely fast. It just may be, the last and only
 * LayoutManager you"ll ever need.
 * <p>
 * 
 * Components can be laid out above, below, left, or right of either a
 * referenced component in the panel, or to the panel itself. Its width and
 * height can be specified with similar flexibility. Absolute and proportional
 * bounds are also supported. In typical use, one or more <i>"reference"</i>
 * tiles are laid, and the rest of the components are set relative to them.
 * <p>
 * 
 * Usage example:<blockquote><tt><pre>
 * panel.add(new JLabel(&quot;Label text:&quot;), new Object[]{
 *       new Integer(TileLayout.LEFTINDENT + TileLayout.NOOFFSET +
 *       TileLayout.PROPWIDTH + TileLayout.FULLHEIGHT), refComponent,
 *       new Insets(-5, 10, 5, 10), new Rectangle(0, 0, 333, 0)
 * // proportion rectangle 33.3%w
 *       });
 * </tt></pre>
 * 
 * </blockquote>
 * <p>
 * 
 * Up to four alignment constraints can be specified, their order does not
 * matter:
 * 
 * <p>
 * <ul>
 * <li> Positioning constants for indent, offset, width, and height
 * <li> A Component for placement relative to, otherwise the container
 * <li> A Rectangle for fixed and proportional component bounds
 * <li> Insets to trim the resulting component boundaries
 * </ul>
 * <p>
 * 
 * <u><i>Note</u>:</i> since the JRE <i>draws</i> components from last added
 * to first; the manager lays them out similarly. Therefore, in order to layout
 * relative to another component, the reference component must be added <u>after</u>
 * the dependent one. I know this can be a drag at first, but it becomes
 * critically important when components are laid out on top of others, or
 * overlapping. This is a <i>super cool</i> capability of this layout manager.
 * 
 * @version 1.0, 01-Nov-99 Initial release
