echopoint.layout
Class XyLayoutManager

java.lang.Object
  echopoint.layout.AbstractLayoutManager
      echopoint.layout.XyLayoutManager

All Implemented Interfaces:

LayoutManager, java.io.Serializable

public class XyLayoutManager
extends AbstractLayoutManager

The XyLayoutManager can place components at specific {x,y} coordinates. A XyCoord constraints object is used to specify these co-ordinates.

If the component implements Positionable then its placed directly at the specified XyCoord. Otherwise it is wrapped and placed in a Postionable and then placed at the defined XyCoord. If no XyCoord is present when the component is added to the layour manager, then its not place directly but rather will flow as usual.
