2.2.4. Vertical and Horizontal Alignment (`layout.managers.directional`)¶

class layout.managers.directional.EqualColumnsLM(margin=0, elements=[])¶

Arranges a set of elements into equally sized columns.

get_minimum_size(data)¶: The minimum width is the number of columns multiplied by the widest element.

class layout.managers.directional.EqualRowsLM(margin=0, elements=[])¶

Arranges a set of elements into equally sized rows.

get_minimum_size(data)¶: The minimum height is the number of rows multiplied by the tallest row.

class layout.managers.directional.HorizontalLM(margin=0, vertical_align=3, horizontal_align=14, elements=[])¶

Keeps a set of elements alongside one another. We can control how they are distributed horizontally, as well as their vertical alignment.

Arguments:

margin: The amount of space to place between elements.
vertical_align: How elements should be aligned vertically in the layout (default: ALIGN_GROW).
horizontal_align: How elements should be aligned horizontally within the layout, and how extra space should be distributed between them (default: ALIGN_EQUAL_GROWTH).

ALIGN_CENTER = 11¶: Align the elements so they are in the center of the available space.

ALIGN_EQUAL_GROWTH = 14¶: Align the elements horizontally so that each gets the same amount of extra space, if the layout is taller than the elements need it to be.

ALIGN_EQUAL_SPACING = 13¶: Align the elements horizontally so that any additional space is distributed equally between the elements.

ALIGN_GROW = 3¶: Align each element so that it stretches vertically to fill the layout.

ALIGN_LEFT = 10¶: Align the elements so they are bunched at the left of the available space.

ALIGN_RIGHT = 12¶: Align the elements so they sit at the right of the available space.

get_minimum_size(data)¶: Minimum width is the total width + margins, minimum height is the largest height.

render(rect, data)¶: Displays the elements according to the align properties.

class layout.managers.directional.VerticalLM(margin=0, horizontal_align=13, vertical_align=4, elements=[])¶

Keeps a set of elements above one another. We can control how they are distributed vertically, as well as their horizontal alignment.

Arguments:

margin: The amount of space to place between elements.
horizontal_align: How elements should be aligned horizontally within the stack (default: ALIGN_GROW).
vertical_align: How elements should be aligned vertically in the stack, and how extra space should be distributed between them (default: ALIGN_EQUAL_GROWTH).

ALIGN_BOTTOM = 2¶: Align the elements so they sit at the bottom of the available space.

ALIGN_EQUAL_GROWTH = 4¶: Align the elements vertically so that each gets the same amount of extra space, if the layout is taller than the elements need it to be.

ALIGN_EQUAL_SPACING = 3¶: Align the elements vertcially so that any extra space is distributed equally between the elements.

ALIGN_GROW = 13¶: Align each element so that it stretches horizontally to fill the layout.

ALIGN_MIDDLE = 1¶: Align the elements so they are in the middle of the available space.

ALIGN_TOP = 0¶: Align the elements so they are bunched at the top of the available space.

get_minimum_size(data)¶: Minimum height is the total height + margins, minimum width is the largest width.

render(rect, data)¶: Displays the elements according to the align properties.
