Alignment

Alignment

Alignment positions the children of a container: one of the four edges, one of the four corners or the center. Stacks, boxes, grid cells, table cells and many other components accept it. The zero value is Center.

Alignment

alignments := []Alignment{
	TopLeading, Top, TopTrailing,
	Leading, Center, Trailing,
	BottomLeading, Bottom, BottomTrailing,
}

return Grid(
	ForEach(alignments, func(a Alignment) TGridCell {
		return GridCell(
			VStack(Text(a.String())).
				Alignment(a).
				BackgroundColor("#C9E7F8").
				Padding(Padding{}.All(L8)).
				Frame(Frame{}.Size(L200, L96)),
		)
	})...,
).Columns(3).Gap(L8)

Stretch is an additional value which lets the content fill the available space, e.g. in a GridCell. In a VStack the alignment also places the children horizontally: Leading aligns them on the left edge, in an HStack Top aligns them on the top edge.
