TclLoyout is a container for other graphic object. Use TclLayout to edit multiple chart controls under the same parent. For example, you wanted to put 2 components (label, button) in a single line on the page you want to design. In such cases, you can position these 2 components in a single Layout.
<div class="alert alert-ligth border border-3 border-primary-subtle rounded-5 p-4 shadow-sm" role="alert">
function AddNewLayout(AComponent: TCLComponent; xName: string): TclLayout;

Let's create a layout.<br>

|}
</div>


2. You need to define TclLayout on the form. To do this, you should add under the var parameter on the ide as follows. It is the name of your variable you typed at the beginning. You should define this as you want and add it as TclLayout.<br>
<b>Example</b><br>
<pre>
Var 
  MyForm:TclForm;
  Panel1 : TclPanel;
  Layout1 : TclLayout;
  Edit1 : TclEdit;
{
  MyForm=TclForm.Create(self);
   
  Panel1=MyForm.AddNewPanel(MyForm,'Panel1');
  Panel1.Align=ALTop;
  Panel1.Height=100;
   
  Layout1 = MyForm.AddNewLayout(Panel1,'Layout1');
  Layout1.Align=ALCenter;
  Layout1.Height = 50;
 
  Edit1 = MyForm.AddNewEdit(Layout1,'Edit1','Write something...');
  Edit1.Align=aLLeft;
  Edit1.Width = 150;
   
  MyForm.Run;
}
</pre>


'''var'''
<b>Output:</b><br>
testLayout : TclLayout;
[[File:Layout.png|frameless|450px]]<br>


3. Add the TclLabel to the form. For this, you must add the begin end block and add it inside the form after the form is defined. By saying MyForm.AddNewLabel, we actually add to the form we have defined. Here, you need to add your form definition as whatever you wrote it.
<h2> See Also </h2>
testLayout := MyForm.'''AddNewLayout'''(MyForm,'testLayout');
* [[Components]]
 
4. While defining the component, you can define it manually by typing. Another method is to write its shortcut. If you type "AddNewLayout" while the shortcut is in the code block, a pop-up menu will appear.<br>
 
[[File:TclLayoutShortcut.png|frameles|400px]]<br><br>
 
As soon as you click, the following block will come automatically.<br>
AddNewLayout(xOwner:TComponent; xName:String);
 
5. We gave the variable name while defining the TclLayout in var. Now when you add this in begin end you should use this variable name in all definitions. Your code will throw an error when you write these variable names incorrectly.
 
6. Now let's design our TclLayout component. Let's set the width and height first. For this, you must make the following definitions.
testLayout.Height := 50;
testLayout.Width := 150;
 
7. With the Align parameter, you can specify where you want our component to be aligned in the form. This parameter has multiple positioning properties. See the [https://www.docs.clomosy.com/index.php/Object_Properties#Align page] to learn about these features. We're going to call it the top part here. So we have to write "AlTop".
testLayout.Align := alTop;
 
8. With the Margins parameter, you can give margins at any scale from the right, left, bottom, top.
 
testLayout.Margins.Left:= 50;
testLayout.Margins.Right:= 10;
testLayout.Margins.Top:= 50;
testLayout.Margins.Bottom:= 10;
 
'''Appearance:'''<br>
 
[[File:PanelAppearance.png|frameless|450px]]
 
9. If we want to add click feature to your component, you can use the following procedure. 'BtnOnClick' is a procedure name. For more information about the AddNewEvent component, see the [https://www.docs.clomosy.com/index.php/AddNewEvent page].
MyForm.AddNewEvent(testLayout,tbeOnClick,'BtnOnClick');
 
10. To tell you the truth, you have created a simple application that does nothing yet. Let's save and start using our project. You can save in one of two ways:<br>
Click the save icon (the button in the upper right corner) or press Ctrl + S to save the project and see what you've done on the platforms now.
 
'''Example:'''<br>
'''Var''' 
MyForm:TclForm;
testPanelRow : TclPanel;
testLayout : TclLayout;
testEdit : TclEdit;<br>
'''begin'''<br>
MyForm:=TclForm.Create(self);<br>
testPanelRow:=MyForm.AddNewPanel(MyForm,'testPanelRow',<nowiki>''</nowiki>);
testPanelRow.Align:=ALTop;
testPanelRow.Height:=100;<br>
testLayout := MyForm.AddNewLayout(testPanelRow,'testLayout');
testLayout.Align:=ALCenter;
testLayout.Height := 50;<br>
testEdit := MyForm.AddNewEdit(testLayout,'testEdit','Write something...');
testEdit.Align:=aLLeft;
testEdit.Width := 150;<br>
MyForm.Run;<br>
'''end;'''

AComponent : Specifies the parent of the object to be defined.

xName : The name of the defined layout should be written.

It is used to arrange other components on the form. Simply put, it is used to organize buttons, labels, and other visual elements in a specific layout on a form. This layout automatically adjusts the size and position of the components, making the form appear more organized and aesthetically pleasing. TclLayout is particularly useful when creating dynamic user interfaces and adapting to different screen sizes.

The features and usage are provided in the table below.

Feature Use of Definition
TclLayout Layout1 : TclLayout; A variable belonging to the TclLayout class is created.
AddNewLayout Layout1 = Form1.AddNewLayout(Form1,'Layout1'); A new TclLayout is added to the form.
AutoResize Layout1.AutoResize = clVertical; Enables automatic resizing of a component based on its content. This feature allows resizing horizontally (clHorizontal) or vertically (clVertical) and can be adjusted as needed.
Width Layout1.Width = 150; Allows adjusting the width of the layout.
Height Layout1.Height = 50; Allows adjusting the height of the layout.
Align Layout1.Align = alTop; With the Align parameter, you can specify where you want our component to be aligned in the form. This parameter has multiple positioning properties. See the page to learn about these features.
Margins Layout1.Margins.Left = 50; // Right, Top, Bottom With the Margins parameter, you can give margins at any scale from the right, left, bottom, top.

Example

 Var   
   MyForm:TclForm;
   Panel1 : TclPanel;
   Layout1 : TclLayout;
   Edit1 : TclEdit;
 
 {
 
   MyForm=TclForm.Create(self);
    
   Panel1=MyForm.AddNewPanel(MyForm,'Panel1');
   Panel1.Align=ALTop;
   Panel1.Height=100;
    
   Layout1 = MyForm.AddNewLayout(Panel1,'Layout1');
   Layout1.Align=ALCenter;
   Layout1.Height = 50;
   
   Edit1 = MyForm.AddNewEdit(Layout1,'Edit1','Write something...');
   Edit1.Align=aLLeft;
   Edit1.Width = 150;
    
   MyForm.Run;
 
 }

Output:
