<panel> <name>DTileLayout</name> <parent>DDragBase</parent> <realm>Client</realm> <file line="">lua/vgui/dtilelayout.lua</file>⤶ <description> Similarly to <page>DIconLayout</page>, this lays out panels in two dimensions as tiles. The difference between this and <page>DIconLayout</page> is that <page>DIconLayout</page> items all have the same height while <page>DTileLayout</page> items do not have this enforcement. <page>DTileLayout</page> will find the best way to "pack" its children. For example, in a two column layout, a item of height 2 units will be placed in one column while two items of height 1 unit will be placed in the other column. It is worth noting however that because this panel iterates through its children in an undefined order and lays out while it is iterating, there is no guarantee that this packing will lead to the lowest possible height. This is used by the spawnmenu to arrange spawnicons. The base size defines the smallest a tile can be, and it will resize vertically to accommodate all child panels. The number of elements in each row is determined by the base size and width. It also optionally permits the rearrangement of these tiles. To enable this functionality, call <page>DDragBase:MakeDroppable</page> on the DTileLayout with a unique identifier. All panels added following this will be moveable. </description> </panel> <example> <description>Creates a DTileLayout within a <page>DFrame</page>, sets the base size and adds 32 <page>DLabel</page>s.</description> <code> local frame = vgui.Create("DFrame") frame:SetSize(300, 300) frame:SetTitle("DTileLayout Example") frame:MakePopup() frame:Center() local layout = vgui.Create("DTileLayout", frame) layout:SetBaseSize(32) -- Tile size layout:Dock(FILL) //Draw a background so we can see what it's doing layout:SetDrawBackground(true) layout:SetBackgroundColor(Color(0, 100, 100)) layout:MakeDroppable("unique_name") -- Allows us to rearrange children for i = 1, 32 do layout:Add(Label(" Label " .. i)) end </code> <output><upload src="8c9ed/8d7d1b87cd890a9.png" size="7590" name="DTileLayout.png" /></output> </example>
