Class AbstractLayoutPainter<T>

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Painter<T>
    Direct Known Subclasses:
    AbstractAreaPainter

    public abstract class AbstractLayoutPainter<T>
    extends AbstractPainter<T>
    An abstract base class for any painter which can be positioned. This means the painter has some intrinsic size to what it is drawing and can be stretched or aligned both horizontally and vertically. The AbstractLayoutPainter class provides the following configuraable properties:
    • horizonalAlignment - the horizonal alignment (left, center, and right)
    • verticalAlignment - the verticalAlignment alignment (top, center, and bottom)
    • fillHorizontal - indicates if the painter should stretch to fill the available space horizontally
    • fillVertical - indicates if the painter should stretch to fill the available space vertically
    • insets - whitespace on the top, bottom, left, and right.
    By combining these five properties any AbstractLayoutPainter subclass can position it's content within the paintable area. For example, an ImagePainter has an intrinsic size based on the image it is painting. If you wanted to paint the image in the lower right hand corner of the paintable area, but inset by 5 pixels, you could do the following:
    
         ImagePainter p = new ImagePainter(null);
         p.setVerticalAlignment(AbstractLayoutPainter.VerticalAlignment.BOTTOM);
         p.setHorizontalAlignment(AbstractLayoutPainter.HorizontalAlignment.RIGHT);
         p.setInsets(new Insets(0,0,5,5));
     
    For something which is resizable, like a RectanglePainter, you can use the fill properties to make it resize along with the paintable area. For example, to make a rectangle with 20 px rounded corners, and which resizes with the paintable area but is inset by 10 pixels on all sides, you could do the following:
    
         RectanglePainter p = new RectanglePainter();
         p.setRoundHeight(20);
         p.setRoundWidth(20);
         p.setInsets(new Insets(10,10,10,10));
         p.setFillHorizontal(true);
         p.setFillVertical(true);

        public void setHorizontalAlignment​(AbstractLayoutPainter.HorizontalAlignment horizontal)
        Sets a new horizontalAlignment alignment. Used to position the content at the left, right, or center.
        Parameters:
        horizontal - new horizontalAlignment alignment
      • setFillHorizontal

        public void setFillHorizontal​(boolean fillHorizontal)
        Sets if the content should be stretched horizontally to fill all available horizontalAlignment space (minus the left and right insets).
        Parameters:
        fillHorizontal - new horizontal stretch value
      • setInsets

        public void setInsets​(java.awt.Insets insets)
        Sets the current whitespace insets.
        Parameters:
        insets - new insets
      • setVerticalAlignment

        public void setVerticalAlignment​(AbstractLayoutPainter.VerticalAlignment vertical)
        Sets a new verticalAlignment alignment. Used to position the content at the top, bottom, or center.
        Parameters:
        vertical - new verticalAlignment alignment
      • setFillVertical

        public void setFillVertical​(boolean verticalStretch)
        Sets if the content should be stretched vertically to fill all available verticalAlignment space (minus the top and bottom insets).
        Parameters:
        verticalStretch - new verticalAlignment stretch value
      • calculateLayout

        protected final java.awt.Rectangle calculateLayout​(int contentWidth,
                                                           int contentHeight,
                                                           int width,
                                                           int height)
        A protected method used by subclasses to calculate the final position of the content. This will position the content using the fillHorizontal, fillVertical horizontalAlignment, and verticalAlignment properties. This method is typically called by subclasses in their doPaint() methods.
        Parameters:
        contentWidth - The width of the content to be painted
        contentHeight - The height of the content to be painted
        width - the width of the area that the content will be positioned in
        height - the height of the area that the content will be positioned in
        Returns:
        the rectangle for the content to be painted in
