# Enum TileLayoutPolicy

java.lang.Object
java.lang.Enum<TileLayoutPolicy>
com.smartgwt.client.types.TileLayoutPolicy

All Implemented Interfaces:
  `ValueEnum`, `Serializable`, `Comparable<TileLayoutPolicy>`, `Constable`

public enum TileLayoutPolicy extends Enum<TileLayoutPolicy> implements ValueEnum
Policy for laying out tiles.

Because a TileLayout can be either horizontally or vertically oriented, the general term "line" is used to mean either a row or column of tiles.

NOTE: for typical form layouts (a variety of input fields and buttons in a tabular layout with col-spanning and row-spanning support), use a `DynamicForm` and see the `FormLayout` topic.

- ## Enum Constant Summary

  Enum Constants
  Enum Constant
  Description
  `FIT`
  Each line has the same number of tiles, based on `TileLayout.tilesPerLine` if set, otherwise, based on fitting as many tiles per line as possible consistent with `tileSize` and `TileLayout.tileMargin`.
  `FLOW`
  Tiles are laid out with varying numbers of tiles per line according to each tile's size, the `tileMargin`, and the available space.

- ## Enum Constant Details

  - ### FIT

    public static final TileLayoutPolicy FIT
    Each line has the same number of tiles, based on `TileLayout.tilesPerLine` if set, otherwise, based on fitting as many tiles per line as possible consistent with `tileSize` and `TileLayout.tileMargin`.

    Tiles that do not specify a size will be sized to fill available space.

    If this enumerated value is used in a `Component XML` file or server-side DataSource descriptor (.ds.xml file), use the value "fit".

  - ### FLOW

    public static final TileLayoutPolicy FLOW
    Tiles are laid out with varying numbers of tiles per line according to each tile's size, the `tileMargin`, and the available space.

    Tiles are never resized by the TileLayout and `TileLayout.tileSize` is ignored.

    If this enumerated value is used in a `Component XML` file or server-side DataSource descriptor (.ds.xml file), use the value "flow".

- ## Method Details

  - ### values

    public static TileLayoutPolicy[] values()
    Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared.
    Returns:
      an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

  - ### valueOf

    public static TileLayoutPolicy valueOf(String name)
    Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
    Parameters:
      `name` - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
    Returns:
      the enum constant with the specified name
    Throws:
      `IllegalArgumentException` - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
      `NullPointerException` - if the argument is null

  - ### getValue

    public String getValue()
    Specified by:
      `getValue` in interface `ValueEnum`
