Interface FlexibleConstants

All Known Implementing Classes:

FlexibleConstraints, FlexibleLayout

public interface FlexibleConstants

Convenient interface to define all constants.
Just implement it in your classes to get rid of all 'FlexibleConstants.XXX' stuff!

The following constants are used to specify which edge is pointed by the location:

• TOPLEFT
• TOPRIGHT
• TOPCENTER
• BOTTOMLEFT
• BOTTOMRIGHT
• BOTTOMCENTER
• CENTERLEFT
• CENTERRIGHT
• CENTER

Each one has its relative counterpart, eg. TOPRIGHT is TOPRIGHT_RELATIVE.

The following constants specify whether component should be scaled:

• SCALABLE
• SCALABLE_WIDTH
• SCALABLE_HEIGHT

You can combine different constants using binary OR operator (ie. |).

Please note that since first version, TOP, LEFT, RIGHT, BOTTOM, HORIZONTALCENTER and VERTICALCENTER constants were replaced with respectively TOP_MASK, LEFT_MASK, RIGHT_MASK, BOTTOM_MASK, HORIZONTALCENTER_MASK and VERTICALCENTER_MASK.
That's to avoid some conflicts for classes implementing this interface. Other constants name remain unchanged.

Field Detail

RELATIVE

public static final int RELATIVE

Specifies whether this location is relative.

A relative location is adjusted according to container size if FlexibleLayout size parameter is set up.

SCALABLE_WIDTH

public static final int SCALABLE_WIDTH

Specifies whether this width is scalable.

See Also:

SCALABLE

SCALABLE_HEIGHT

public static final int SCALABLE_HEIGHT

Specifies whether this height is scalable.

SCALABLE

SCALABLE

public static final int SCALABLE

Specifies whether the component should be scaled.

That means that the size of the component is adjusted according to container size if FlexibleLayout size parameter is set up.
