Flow Layout

Control API

The flowLayout is a simple container that renders its contents without additions. Itallows to align controls that do not need to be aligned with other elements in an interface. Controls that are added to the flowLayout are able to wrap if the available space for displaying all controls in one line does not suffice.

flowLayout has no tag. It has one method getUI which returns an identification string for the renderer that is unique for all supported components. The following attributes are inherited from container.
