Zusammenfassung:A LAYOUT RESIZES INTELLIGENTLY WITHOUT COMPLEXITY. OBJECTS OR ELEMENTS (30, 40) ARE ATTACHED TO A VIRTUAL GRID (10) OF ROW AND COLUMN GRIDLINES, WHICH ARE DEFINED SEPARATELY. THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE OBJECTS AND THE GRID IS BI-DIRECTIONAL SO THAT MOVING ONE (GRIDLINE OR OBJECT) WILL AFFECT THE OTHER (OBJECT OR GRIDLINE). IN ORDER WORDS, EXPANDING / COLLAPSING THE OBJECT WILL PUSH THE GRIDLINES, AND MOVING THE GRIDLINE WILL EXPAND / COLLAPSE THE OBJECT. THE VIRTUAL GRID (10) CAN BE CREATED BEFORE OR AFTER THE OBJECTS TO PROVIDE FURTHER FLEXIBILITY. A CHILD OBJECT CAN HAVE ITS OWN VIRTUAL GRID, WHICH ALLOWS FINE-GRAINED CONTROL WHERE DESIRED.
