Package limn.scene.layout

package limn.scene.layout

Layout containers: Row and Column over the shared simplified flexbox Flex, with Expanded taking a weighted share of the leftover main-axis space; Stack overlays children, Padding wraps one child in edge insets, and SizedBox fixes a dimension or spaces rigidly. All of them are plain widgets: a container an application writes participates in measure and layout on the same terms.

Package	Description
limn.scene	Widget tree, event dispatch (coalescing + bubbling), focus and the measure/layout pass.
limn.scene.event	The input events the scene dispatches: MouseEvent, KeyEvent, CharEvent for committed text, PreeditEvent for IME composition still in flight, and FileDropEvent.

Class	Description
Column	Vertical Flex: children stack top to bottom.
Expanded	Flex wrapper: inside a Column/Row it receives a share of the leftover main-axis space proportional to flex.
Flex	Simplified flexbox shared by Column and Row: children flow along the main axis with an optional gap; Expanded children split the leftover main-axis space by flex weight; alignment controls the distribution of leftovers (Flex.MainAlignment) and cross-axis placement (Flex.CrossAlignment, including STRETCH).
Flex.CrossAlignment	Cross-axis placement.
Flex.MainAlignment	How leftover space along the layout axis is distributed, on two vocabularies that coexist on purpose.
Padding	Wraps one child with edge insets.
Row	Horizontal Flex: children flow left to right.
SizedBox	Forces a fixed width and/or height (unset dimensions pass through to the child, or collapse to zero without one).
Stack	Overlays children on top of each other (later children on top; the base for overlays and modal dialogs).
Stack.Alignment	Where a child sits in the stack's box, on two vocabularies that coexist on purpose.
