The layout data of a UI element is used to specify the positioning in its container. The data must match the current container Layout .

LayoutData represents the abstract base class of all LayoutData UI elements.

LayoutData UI elements include:

These UI elements are used for the following purposes:

  • Spacing between individual UI elements and between the UI element and the grid cell
  • Horizontal and vertical alignment of the UI elements within the grid
  • Width and height of the UI element in the cell

Each UI element references a LayoutData object that can be used for the alignment of a UI element. This LayoutData object is an instance of the subclass of the abstract LayoutData base class.
