GridLayout布局使用网格来布置其中的UI组件。每个网格提供行,列来定义。每个UI组件可以占据一个或多个网格。由网格的坐标(x1,y1,x2,y2)来定义。
GridLayout布局内部使用一个游标(cursor)来记录当前的网格位置,GridLayout布局添加UI组件的顺序为从左到右,从上到下。如果游标越过当前网格的右下角,GridLayout布局自动添加一行。
下例为GridLayout布局的基本用法,addComponent 第一个参数为所添加的UI组件对象,第二个参数可选,指定UI组件添加的网格坐标。可以使用单个坐标或是一个区域。网格坐标从0开始。
// Create a 4 by 4 grid layout. GridLayout grid = new GridLayout(4, 4); grid.addStyleName("example-gridlayout"); // Fill out the first row using the cursor. grid.addComponent(new Button("R/C 1")); for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) { grid.addComponent(new Button("Col " + (grid.getCursorX() + 1))); } // Fill out the first column using coordinates. for (int i = 1; i < 4; i++) { grid.addComponent(new Button("Row " + i), 0, i); } // Add some components of various shapes. grid.addComponent(new Button("3x1 button"), 1, 1, 3, 1); grid.addComponent(new Label("1x2 cell"), 1, 2, 1, 3); InlineDateField date = new InlineDateField("A 2x2 date field"); date.setResolution(DateField.RESOLUTION_DAY); grid.addComponent(date, 2, 2, 3, 3);
GridLayout布局缺省使用“未定义”宽度和高度,因此缺省自适应其所包含的UI组件。如果使用指定大小或是比例,其可使用的选项类同Vaadin Web应用开发教程(29):UI布局-VerticalLayout和HorizontalLayout布局
类似VerticalLayout和HorizontalLayout布局也可以为UI组件指定扩展比例,让某些UI组件占据GridLayout布局剩余空间。可以通过setRowExpandRatio()和setColumnExpandRatio()为行和列分别制定扩展(权重)比例。第一个参数为行或列的坐标,第二个参数为权重。
如下例:
GridLayout grid = new GridLayout(3,2); // Layout containing relatively sized components must have // a defined size, here is fixed size. grid.setWidth("600px"); grid.setHeight("200px"); // Add some content String labels [] = { "Shrinking column<br/>Shrinking row", "Expanding column (1:)<br/>Shrinking row", "Expanding column (5:)<br/>Shrinking row", "Shrinking column<br/>Expanding row", "Expanding column (1:)<br/>Expanding row", "Expanding column (5:)<br/>Expanding row" }; for (int i=0; i<labels.length; i++) { Label label = new Label(labels[i], Label.CONTENT_XHTML); label.setWidth(null); // Set width as undefined grid.addComponent(label); } // Set different expansion ratios for the two columns grid.setColumnExpandRatio(1, 1); grid.setColumnExpandRatio(2, 5); // Set the bottom row to expand grid.setRowExpandRatio(1, 1); // Align and size the labels. for (int col=0; col<grid.getColumns(); col++) { for (int row=0; row<grid.getRows(); row++) { Component c = grid.getComponent(col, row); grid.setComponentAlignment(c, Alignment.TOP_CENTER); // Make the labels high to illustrate the empty // horizontal space. if (col != 0 || row != 0) c.setHeight("100%"); } }
