46 "Objects of this class are stored in the `wx.LayoutConstraints` class as
47 one of eight possible constraints that a window can be involved in.
48 You will never need to create an instance of
49 wx.IndividualLayoutConstraint, rather you should create a
50 `wx.LayoutConstraints` instance and use the individual contstraints
53 Constraints are initially set to have the relationship
54 wx.Unconstrained, which means that their values should be calculated
55 by looking at known constraints.
57 The Edge specifies the type of edge or dimension of a window.
61 ================== ==============================================
62 wx.Left The left edge.
64 wx.Right The right edge.
65 wx.Bottom The bottom edge.
66 wx.CentreX The x-coordinate of the centre of the window.
67 wx.CentreY The y-coordinate of the centre of the window.
68 ================== ==============================================
71 The Relationship specifies the relationship that this edge or
72 dimension has with another specified edge or dimension. Normally, the
73 user doesn't use these directly because functions such as Below and
74 RightOf are a convenience for using the more general Set function.
78 ================== ==============================================
79 wx.Unconstrained The edge or dimension is unconstrained
80 (the default for edges.)
81 wx.AsIs The edge or dimension is to be taken from the current
82 window position or size (the default for dimensions.)
83 wx.Above The edge should be above another edge.
84 wx.Below The edge should be below another edge.
85 wx.LeftOf The edge should be to the left of another edge.
86 wx.RightOf The edge should be to the right of another edge.
87 wx.SameAs The edge or dimension should be the same as another edge
89 wx.PercentOf The edge or dimension should be a percentage of another
91 wx.Absolute The edge or dimension should be a given absolute value.

240 Objects of this class can be associated with a window to define its
241 layout constraints, with respect to siblings or its parent.
243 The class consists of the following eight constraints of class
244 wx.IndividualLayoutConstraint, some or all of which should be accessed
245 directly to set the appropriate constraints.
247 * left: represents the left hand edge of the window
248 * right: represents the right hand edge of the window
249 * top: represents the top edge of the window
250 * bottom: represents the bottom edge of the window
251 * width: represents the width of the window
252 * height: represents the height of the window
253 * centreX: represents the horizontal centre point of the window
254 * centreY: represents the vertical centre point of the window
256 Most constraints are initially set to have the relationship
257 wxUnconstrained, which means that their values should be calculated by
258 looking at known constraints. The exceptions are width and height,
259 which are set to wxAsIs to ensure that if the user does not specify a
260 constraint, the existing width and height will be used, to be
261 compatible with panel items which often have take a default size. If
262 the constraint is ``wx.AsIs``, the dimension will not be changed.
