GMGridContainer
Extension
ExtensionDescription
GMGridContainer is a layout utility class that will arrange its children according to a grid, trying to allocate an even space to every widget.
Contrary to most Graphical Module classes, it does not inherit from GMUserView.
Usage
To use this class, one must instanciate it, then use the insertView to insert views inside it :
insertView takes the view as mandatory argument, then an optionnal index argument. If none is provided, the view will be inserted last in the grid. When the view is inserted, the GMGridContainer will be set as its parent.
Removing views
One can use the removeView method to remove a view from the grid. However, this only removes the view from the GMGridContainer internal view list : the view will be removed from the display calculation, but will continue to exist as a child of the GMGridContainer. Depending on your needs, you also need to either remove the widget using its destroy method, or assign a new parent to it using setParent.
onResize function
Since GMGridContainer uses the onResize action internally, the associated function has been replaced with a FunctionList. One should use addFunc to assign new actions to be performed when a GMGridContainer is resized.
