Class JvColumnFillLayout

java.lang.Object
  org.jurvis.awt.JvAbstractLayoutManager
      org.jurvis.awt.JvColumnFillLayout

All Implemented Interfaces:

LayoutManager

public class JvColumnFillLayout
extends JvAbstractLayoutManager

JvColumnFillLayout lays out components in a column with one component receiving any remaining space. Each component is stretched horizontally to touch the sides of its container. Each component, except for one, is given its preferred height. One component, specified via a constraint of "fill", is given any remaining space. This layout manager was originally designed for application windows which contain multiple tool bars, a status bar, and a main panel.
