GridBagConstraints typedict
 
A GridBagConstraints object controls how a GridBagLayout layout manager places a component in a container. The fields in a GridBagConstraints are:
anchor An int that controls where a component is positioned when it does not fill its group of cells. The value should be CENTER, EAST, NORTH, NORTHEAST, NORTHWEST, SOUTH, SOUTHEAST, SOUTHWEST, or WEST, which are all defined in yoix.awt and yoix.swing.
fill An int that determines which dimensions grow to fill the available space. The value should be NONE, HORIZONTAL, VERTICAL, or BOTH, which are all defined in yoix.awt and yoix.swing.
gridheight An int that sets the height of the component in grid cells.
gridwidth An int that sets the width of the component in grid cells.
gridx An int that sets the horizontal grid location of the component.
gridy An int that sets the vertical grid location of the component.
insets An Object, usually an Insets or Number, that describes the margins, in units of 72 dots per inch, that are left around the top, left, bottom, and right sides of the component. An insets that is a number is an easy way to describe a uniform margin.
ipadx A double that determines how much the component grows in the horizontal direction beyond its default minimum size. The number must be in the default Yoix coordinate system, where 72 represents one inch.
ipady A double that determines how much the component grows in the horizontal direction beyond its default minimum size. The number must be in the default Yoix coordinate system, where 72 represents one inch.
weightx A double that controls how much extra horizontal space the component gets when the container is resized. Positive numbers specify an amount that is proportional, so the final result depends on the weights assigned to other components. A value of 0 means the component gets no extra space.
weighty A double that controls how much extra vertical space the component gets when the container is resized. Positive numbers specify an amount that is proportional, so the final result depends on the weights assigned to other components. A value of 0 means the component gets no extra space.
