module Graphics.UI.Gtk.Abstract.Box (
-- * Detail
-- 
-- | 'Box' is an abstract widget which encapsulates functionality for a
-- particular kind of container, one that organizes a variable number of
-- widgets into a rectangular area. 'Box' currently has two derived classes,
-- 'HBox' and 'VBox'.
--
-- The rectangular area of a 'Box' is organized into either a single row or
-- a single column of child widgets depending upon whether the box is of type
-- 'HBox' or 'VBox', respectively. Thus, all children of a 'Box' are allocated
-- one dimension in common, which is the height of a row, or the width of a
-- column.
--
-- 'Box' uses a notion of /packing/. Packing refers to adding widgets with
-- reference to a particular position in a 'Container'. For a 'Box', there are
-- two reference positions: the /start/ and the /end/ of the box. For a 'VBox',
-- the start is defined as the top of the box and the end is defined as the
-- bottom. For a 'HBox' the start is defined as the left side and the end is
-- defined as the right side.
--
-- Use repeated calls to 'boxPackStart' to pack widgets into a 'Box' from
-- start to end. Use 'boxPackEnd' to add widgets from end to start. You may
-- intersperse these calls and add widgets from both ends of the same 'Box'.
-- Besides adding widgets at the start or the end of a box, you can also
-- specify the padding around each widget (in pixels) and a 'Packing'
-- parameter that denotes how to fill up unused space.
-- The functions 'boxPackStartDefaults' or 'boxPackEndDefaults' 
-- are a convenient way to pack widgets into a 'Box' without specifying
-- these extra paramters.
--
-- While the right amount of padding around each widget is a matter of
-- appearance, the 'Packing' paramter specifies the way the widgets in
-- the container behave when the window is resized and thereby affect
-- the usability. Hence, once you have created a window, you should resize
-- it and see if the widgets behave as expected. The 'Packing' parameter of
-- each child widget determines how excess space is used by that particular
-- widget. See the description of 'Packing' for a detailed explanaition.
--
-- Because 'Box' is a 'Container', you may also use
-- 'Graphics.UI.Gtk.Abstract.Container.containerAdd' to insert widgets into
-- the box, and they will be packed as if with 'boxPackStartDefaults'. Use
-- 'Graphics.UI.Gtk.Abstract.Container.containerRemove' to remove widgets
-- from the 'Box'.
--
-- Use 'boxSetHomogeneous' to specify whether or not all children of the
-- 'Box' are forced to get the same amount of space. Note that the
-- 'Packing' options 'PackNatural' and 'PackRepel' coincide if space is
-- allotted homogeneously.
--
-- Use 'boxSetSpacing' to determine how much space will be minimally placed
-- between all children in the 'Box'.
--
-- Use 'boxReorderChild' to move a 'Box' child to a different place in the
-- box.
--
-- Use 'boxSetChildPacking' to reset the expand, fill, and padding
-- attributes of any 'Box' child. Use 'boxQueryChildPacking' to query these
-- fields.
