The number of columns in the grid.
A boolean specifying whether the first column is a title column.
The orientation of the children.
The number of rows in the grid.
The ratios between the columns.
The ratios between the rows.
The gap between each column.
The gap between each row.
The row and column sizes are controlled by the constraints on their children. For example, the visible-min-width of any column is the maximum of the visible-min-width in of the children in the column. The size of the layout is controlled by the constraints on the rows and columns.
For
grid-layout
description
is either a two dimensional array or a list in the order specified by
orientation
(which defaults to
:row
). In the case of a list, one of
columns
or
rows
can be supplied to specify the dimensions (the default is two columns). As well as panes, slot names and strings,
description
may contain the element
nil
, which is interpreted as a special dummy pane with suitable geometry for resizable gaps. This special interpretation of
nil
in the
description
is specific to
grid-layout
and its subclasses.
The x-ratios and y-ratios slots control the sizes of the elements in a grid layout in the following manner:
The elements of
x-ratios
(or
y-ratios
) control the size of each child relative to the others. If an element in
x-ratios
(or
y-ratios
) is
nil
the child is fixed at its minimum size. Otherwise the size is calculated as follows
(round (* total
ratio
)
ratio-sum
)
where
ratio-sum
is the sum of the non-
nil
elements of
x-ratios
(or
y-ratios
) and
ratio
is the element of ratios corresponding to the child. If this ideal ratio size does not fit the maximum or minimum constraints on the child size, and the constraint means that changing the ratio size would not assist the sum of the child sizes fitting the total space available, then the child is fixed at its constrained size, the child is removed from the ratio calculation, and the calculation is performed again. If
x-ratios
(or
y-ratios
) has fewer elements than the number of children, 1 is used for each of the missing ratios. Leaving
x-ratios
(or
y-ratios
)
nil
causes all of the children to be the same size.
The positions of each pane in the layout can be specified using x-adjust and y-adjust like every other x-y-adjustable-layout, except that if there is one value then it is used for all of the panes, whereas if it is a list then each value in the list refers to one row or column. If the list does not contain a value for every row or column then the last value is taken to refer to all of the remaining panes.
If has-title-column-p is true, then the items in the description which correspond to the first column are treated specially:
Equivalent to specifying
(:title
string
)
A list of the form
(:title
string
.
options
)
Make a title using the given list as initargs.
options
is a plist of options, which can include the keys
:title-font
,
:title-args
,
:mnemonic
or
:mnemonic-escape
.. See titled-object for how these are processed.
A list of the form
(:mnemonic-title
string
.
options
)
Make a title using the given list as initargs.
string
can contain the mnemonic escape.

:title-font
,
:title-args
, or
:mnemonic-escape
