Class LayoutConfig

The flexbox-style configuration of a layout container: its Direction (which sets the main axis), the spacing and alignment of its children, and optional padding. Whether the container scrolls is NOT part of the layout — scrolling is configured at the view-definition level (see IScrollableViewDefinition).

Syntax

public class LayoutConfig

Remarks

This is the domain description of a layout. Realizing it onto Unity layout primitives is the job of the infrastructure layer; the domain stays free of engine-specific layout details.

Constructors

LayoutConfig()

Creates a layout config with default values (a stretched column).

Declaration

public LayoutConfig()

LayoutConfig(LayoutDirection, float)

Convenience constructor for the common direction + gap case.

Declaration

public LayoutConfig(LayoutDirection direction, float gap = 0)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
LayoutDirection	direction
float	gap

Fields

Align

Positioning of children along the cross axis (CSS align-items).

Declaration

public LayoutAlignment Align

Field Value

Type	Description
LayoutAlignment

Direction

The axis along which children are arranged (CSS flex-direction).

Declaration

public LayoutDirection Direction

Field Value

Type	Description
LayoutDirection

Gap

Gap between adjacent children, in pixels (CSS gap).

Declaration

public float Gap

Field Value

Type	Description
float

Justify

Distribution of children along the main axis (CSS justify-content).

Declaration

public LayoutAlignment Justify

Field Value

Type	Description
LayoutAlignment

Padding

Inner spacing between the container edges and its children (CSS padding).

Declaration

public LayoutPadding Padding

Field Value

Type	Description
LayoutPadding

Properties

IsHorizontal

True when Direction arranges children horizontally (its main axis is X). In this project's convention a COLUMN lays children out as side-by-side columns (horizontal main axis), while a ROW stacks them as rows down the screen (vertical main axis) — i.e. "set ROW, see N rows".

Declaration

public bool IsHorizontal { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
bool

IsReversed

True when Direction places children in reverse order.

Declaration

public bool IsReversed { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
bool
