Class LabeledControl

java.lang.Object

org.pentaho.di.ui.core.widget.LabeledControl

public class LabeledControl
extends Object

Creates a label paired with an swt control immediately below it. Call .attachBelow() to place the paired label/control below another control in a form.

The LabeledControl.Series inner class allows creating a series of labeled controls, each automatically attached the its preceding control. E.g. +--------+ |Label1 | +--------+ |Control1| +--------+ |Label2 | +--------+ |Control2| +--------+ |Label3 | +--------+ |Control3| +--------+

or if using LabeledControl.Series.layout(int height, int width, int numcols), labeled controls will be layed out top down / left right with mechanics similar to GridLayout. E.g.

+--------+--------+--------+ |Wide Label1 |Label4 | +--------+--------+--------+ |Wide Control |Control4| +--------+--------+--------+ |Label2 |Label3 |Label5 | +--------+--------+--------+ |Control2|Control3|Control5| +--------+--------+--------+

LabeledControl.Series.hideAll() and LabeledControl.Series.show(Control) will update attachments automatically to shift paired labels/controls up when preceding controls are hidden.
