In Web Dynpro, a FlowLayout is a container layout that arranges the UI elements on the screen from left to right in a flow and wraps UI elements, if necessary.

UI elements within a FlowLayout are automatically wrapped if the horizontal screen space is too small for the display in one line.

The layout of the individual elements of a FlowLayout is described using FlowData .

Note

Note that a few UI elements, for example, the TransparentContainer, cannot be assigned with other elements in one line, but are always wrapped.
