Details

A Table Layout item defines the behavior of the managed control as part of an Table layout.
 
The IDE will manage layout definition through the use of the designer. This code is provided for reference purposes.

Example

In this example, a simple two row, one column layout is used to simply organise multiple controls.
 
The top row has a fixed height, while the second row is proportional meaning that it will occupy the remainder of the screen.
 
A label occupies all of the top row, sizing to FitBoth. The entry fields are all positioned in the second row and aligned Topleft and flowing down.
 
The Save and Close buttons are also positioned in the second row, but they are aligned BottomRight and flowing to the left.
