Constructor Detail

Layout

public Layout()

Create a new Layout.

Layout

public Layout(java.lang.String group)

Create a new Layout.

Parameters:

group - the data group to layout.

Layout

public Layout(java.lang.String group,
              long duration)

Method Detail

setMargin

public void setMargin(int top,
                      int left,
                      int bottom,
                      int right)

Set the margins the layout should observe within its layout bounds.

Parameters:

top - the top margin, in pixels

left - the left margin, in pixels

bottom - the bottom margin, in pixels

right - the right margin, in pixels

getLayoutBounds

public java.awt.geom.Rectangle2D getLayoutBounds()

Returns the bounds in which the layout should be computed. If the bounds have been explicitly set, that value is used. Otherwise, an attempt is made to compute the bounds based upon the display region of the first display found in this action's associated Visualization.

Returns:

the layout bounds within which to constrain the layout.

setLayoutBounds

public void setLayoutBounds(java.awt.geom.Rectangle2D b)

Explicitly set the layout bounds. A reference to the input rectangle instance is maintained, not a copy, and so any subsequent changes to the rectangle object will also change the layout bounds.

Parameters:

b - a rectangle specifying the layout bounds. A reference to this same instance is kept.

getLayoutAnchor

public java.awt.geom.Point2D getLayoutAnchor()

Return the layout anchor at which to center or root the layout. How this point is used (if it is used at all) is dependent on the particular Layout implementation. If no anchor point has been explicitly set, the center coordinate for the first display found in this action's associated Visualization is used, if available.

Returns:

the layout anchor point.

setLayoutAnchor

public void setLayoutAnchor(java.awt.geom.Point2D a)

Explicitly set the layout anchor point. The provided object will be used directly (rather than copying its values), so subsequent changes to that point object will change the layout anchor.

Parameters:

a - the layout anchor point to use

setX

public void setX(VisualItem item,
                 VisualItem referrer,
                 double x)

Convenience method for setting an x-coordinate. The start value of the x-coordinate will be set to the current value, and the current and end values will be set to the provided x-coordinate. If the current value is not a number (NaN), the x-coordinate of the provided referrer item (if non null) will be used to set the start coordinate.

Parameters:

item - the item to set

referrer - the referrer item to use for the start location if the current value is not a number (NaN)

x - the x-coordinate value to set. This will be set for both the current and end values.

See Also:

PrefuseLib.setX(VisualItem, VisualItem, double)

setY

public void setY(VisualItem item,
                 VisualItem referrer,
                 double y)

Convenience method for setting an y-coordinate. The start value of the y-coordinate will be set to the current value, and the current and end values will be set to the provided y-coordinate. If the current value is not a number (NaN), the y-coordinate of the provided referrer item (if non null) will be used to set the start coordinate.

Parameters:

item - the item to set

referrer - the referrer item to use for the start location if the current value is not a number (NaN)

y - the y-coordinate value to set. This will be set for both the current and end values.

PrefuseLib.setY(VisualItem, VisualItem, double)
