Details

For this view, the index specified in addView() will have no visual effect since child views are placed at absolute coordinates. However, getChildViews() will return child views in the actual order.

A GridLayout cell has the following attributes:

  • x - (number) the x-index of a grid cell starting point
  • y - (number) the y-index of a grid cell starting point
  • dx - (number) the width of a view defined as a number of grid cells
  • dy - (number) the height of a view defined as a number of grid cells
