public class BoxView extends CompositeView
A view that arranges its children into a box shape by tiling its children along an axis. The box is somewhat like that found in TeX where there is alignment of the children, flexibility of the children is considered, etc. This is a building block that might be useful to represent things like a collection of lines, paragraphs, lists, columns, pages, etc. The axis along which the children are tiled is considered the major axis. The orthogonal axis is the minor axis.Layout for each axis is handled separately by the methods
layoutMajorAxis
andlayoutMinorAxis
. Subclasses can change the layout algorithm by reimplementing these methods. These methods will be called as necessary depending upon whether or not there is cached layout information and the cache is considered valid. These methods are typically called if the given size along the axis changes, or iflayoutChanged
is called to force an updated layout. ThelayoutChanged
method invalidates cached layout information, if there is any. The requirements published to the parent view are calculated by the methodscalculateMajorAxisRequirements
andcalculateMinorAxisRequirements
. If the layout algorithm is changed, these methods will likely need to be reimplemented.

Method Detail
getAxis
public int getAxis()
Fetches the tile axis property. This is the axis along which the child views are tiled.- Returns:
-
the major axis of the box, either
View.X_AXIS
orView.Y_AXIS

layoutChanged
public void layoutChanged(int axis)
Invalidates the layout along an axis. This happens automatically if the preferences have changed for any of the child views. In some cases the layout may need to be recalculated when the preferences have not changed. The layout can be marked as invalid by calling this method. The layout will be updated the next time thesetSize
method is called on this view (typically in paint).- Parameters:

axis
- eitherView.X_AXIS
orView.Y_AXIS
- Since:
- 1.4
paintChild
protected void paintChild(Graphics g, Rectangle alloc, int index)
Paints a child. By default that is all it does, but a subclass can use this to paint things relative to the child.- Parameters:

index
- the child index, >= 0 && < getViewCount()
replace
public void replace(int index, int length, View[] elems)

to indicate no children are being added (useful to remove)
forwardUpdate
protected void forwardUpdate(DocumentEvent.ElementChange ec, DocumentEvent e, Shape a, ViewFactory f)

flipEastAndWestAtEnds
protected boolean flipEastAndWestAtEnds(int position, Position.Bias bias)
Determines in which direction the next view lays. Consider the View at index n. Typically theView
s are layed out from left to right, so that theView
to the EAST will be at index n + 1, and theView
to the WEST will be at index n - 1. In certain situations, such as with bidirectional text, it is possible that theView
to EAST is not at index n + 1, but rather at index n - 1, or that theView
to the WEST is not at index n - 1, but index n + 1. In this case this method would return true, indicating theView
s are layed out in descending order. Otherwise the method would return false indicating theView
s are layed out in ascending order.If the receiver is laying its
View
s along theY_AXIS
, this will will return the value from invoking the same method on theView
responsible for renderingposition
andbias
. Otherwise this will return false.- Overrides:
