Public Constructors

public VerticalPanel ()

Creates an empty vertical panel.

Public Methods

public void add (Widget w)

Adds a child widget.

How to Override this Method

There are several important things that must take place in the correct order to properly add or insert a Widget to a Panel. Not all of these steps will be relevant to every Panel, but all of the steps must be considered.

Validate: Perform any sanity checks to ensure the Panel can accept a new Widget. Examples: checking for a valid index on insertion; checking that the Panel is not full if there is a max capacity.
Adjust for Reinsertion: Some Panels need to handle the case where the Widget is already a child of this Panel. Example: when performing a reinsert, the index might need to be adjusted to account for the Widget's removal. See adjustIndex(Widget, int).
Detach Child: Remove the Widget from its existing parent, if any. Most Panels will simply call removeFromParent() on the Widget.
Logical Attach: Any state variables of the Panel should be updated to reflect the addition of the new Widget. Example: the Widget is added to the Panel's WidgetCollection at the appropriate index.
Physical Attach: The Widget's Element must be physically attached to the Panel's Element, either directly or indirectly.
Adopt: Call adopt(Widget) to finalize the add as the very last step.

Parameters

w	the widget to be added

public HasHorizontalAlignment.HorizontalAlignmentConstant getHorizontalAlignment ()

Gets the horizontal alignment.

Returns

the current horizontal alignment ( ALIGN_LEFT, ALIGN_CENTER, ALIGN_RIGHT, ALIGN_JUSTIFY, or null).

public HasVerticalAlignment.VerticalAlignmentConstant getVerticalAlignment ()

Gets the vertical alignment.

Returns

the current vertical alignment.

public void insert (IsWidget w, int beforeIndex)

public void insert (Widget w, int beforeIndex)

Inserts a child widget before the specified index. If the widget is already a child of this panel, it will be moved to the specified index.

Parameters

w	the child widget to be inserted
beforeIndex	the index before which it will be inserted

public boolean remove (Widget w)

Removes a child widget.

How to Override this Method

There are several important things that must take place in the correct order to properly remove a Widget from a Panel. Not all of these steps will be relevant to every Panel, but all of the steps must be considered.

Validate: Make sure this Panel is actually the parent of the child Widget; return false if it is not.
Orphan: Call orphan(Widget) first while the child Widget is still attached.
Physical Detach: Adjust the DOM to account for the removal of the child Widget. The Widget's Element must be physically removed from the DOM.
Logical Detach: Update the Panel's state variables to reflect the removal of the child Widget. Example: the Widget is removed from the Panel's WidgetCollection.

Parameters

w	the widget to be removed

Returns

true if the child was present

public void setHorizontalAlignment (HasHorizontalAlignment.HorizontalAlignmentConstant align)

Sets the default horizontal alignment to be used for widgets added to this panel. It only applies to widgets added after this property is set.

Parameters

align	the horizontal alignment ( `ALIGN_LEFT`, `ALIGN_CENTER`, `ALIGN_RIGHT`, `ALIGN_JUSTIFY`, `ALIGN_LOCALE_START`, or `ALIGN_LOCALE_END`).

public void setVerticalAlignment (HasVerticalAlignment.VerticalAlignmentConstant align)

Sets the default vertical alignment to be used for widgets added to this panel. It only applies to widgets added after this property is set.

Parameters

align	the vertical alignment ( `ALIGN_TOP`, `ALIGN_MIDDLE`, or `ALIGN_BOTTOM`).

Protected Methods

protected void onEnsureDebugId (String baseID)

Affected Elements:

-# = the cell at the given index.

Parameters

baseID	the base ID used by the main element
