1\section{\class{wxLayoutConstraints}}\label{wxlayoutconstraints}
2
3Objects of this class can be associated with a window to define its
4layout constraints, with respect to siblings or its parent.
5
6The class consists of the following eight constraints of class wxIndividualLayoutConstraint,
7some or all of which should be accessed directly to set the appropriate
8constraints.
9
10\begin{itemize}\itemsep=0pt
11\item {\bf left:} represents the left hand edge of the window
12\item {\bf right:} represents the right hand edge of the window
13\item {\bf top:} represents the top edge of the window
14\item {\bf bottom:} represents the bottom edge of the window
15\item {\bf width:} represents the width of the window
16\item {\bf height:} represents the height of the window
17\item {\bf centreX:} represents the horizontal centre point of the window
18\item {\bf centreY:} represents the vertical centre point of the window
19\end{itemize}

21Most constraints are initially set to have the relationship wxUnconstrained,
22which means that their values should be calculated by looking at known constraints.
23The exceptions are {\it width} and {\it height}, which are set to wxAsIs to
24ensure that if the user does not specify a constraint, the existing
25width and height will be used, to be compatible with panel items which often
26have take a default size. If the constraint is wxAsIs, the dimension will
27not be changed.
