lt.monarch.chart.view
Interface ExpandableDecoration

All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractBorderDecorator, AbstractLegend, ColorScaleLegend, DecoratedView, LabeledChart, Legend, LineBorderDecorator, SimpleChart

public interface ExpandableDecoration

Size of view implementing this interface can be expanded by DecoratedView instance inside which the view persists.
Usually DecoratedView keeps side views (decorations) at their preferred sizes. If view implements ExpandableDecoration interface, returns true from the isHorizontallyExpandable method and is added to DecoratedView's top or bottom, its width will be expanded to maximum space available. The same with height of view - if true is returned from the isVerticallyExpandable method and view is added to DecoratedView's left or right, its height will be expanded to maximum space available.
Intended to be implemented by classes already implementing lt.monarch.chart.View interface.
