      public class PortalLayout
      extends Layout

  A PortalLayout is a special subclass of Layout designed to display `Portlet` windows. A PortalLayout displays Portlets in columns and supports drag-drop interaction for moving Portlets around within the PortalLayout. Portlets may be drag-reordered within columns, dragged into other columns, or dragged next to other Portlets to sit next to them horizontally within a column.

    - #### setCanResizeColumns

          public PortalLayout setCanResizeColumns(java.lang.Boolean canResizeColumns)

      Are columns in this PortalLayout drag-resizeable?

      Note that the displayed width of a column will automatically shrink and stretch to accommodate the width of `Portlets` -- see `canStretchColumnWidths` and `canShrinkColumnWidths` for an explanation. This setting affects the intrinsic width of a column -- that is, the width it will try to return to when not necessary to stretch or shrink to accommodate Portlet widths.
      If this method is called after the component has been drawn/initialized: Set whether columns in this portalLayout are drag-resizable, and update any drawn columns to reflect this.

      Parameters:
        `canResizeColumns` - Whether columns are drag-resizable. Default value is true
      Returns:
        `PortalLayout` instance, for chaining setter calls
      See Also:
        `setCanStretchColumnWidths(java.lang.Boolean)`, `setCanShrinkColumnWidths(java.lang.Boolean)`, `Sizing overview and related methods`

    - #### getCanResizeColumns

          public java.lang.Boolean getCanResizeColumns()

      Are columns in this PortalLayout drag-resizeable?

      Note that the displayed width of a column will automatically shrink and stretch to accommodate the width of `Portlets` -- see `canStretchColumnWidths` and `canShrinkColumnWidths` for an explanation. This setting affects the intrinsic width of a column -- that is, the width it will try to return to when not necessary to stretch or shrink to accommodate Portlet widths.

      Returns:
        Current canResizeColumns value. Default value is true
      See Also:
        `getCanStretchColumnWidths()`, `getCanShrinkColumnWidths()`, `Sizing overview and related methods`

    - #### setCanResizePortlets

          public PortalLayout setCanResizePortlets(java.lang.Boolean canResizePortlets)

      Should the height and width of `Portlets` be drag-resizable?

      Note that changing the height of a Portlet will change the height of all the Portlets in the same row to match.

      If the height of Portlets causes a column to overflow, that column will scroll vertically (independent of other columns), depending on the `columnOverflow` setting.

      Changing the width of a Portlet will potentially cause columns to stretch and shrink their displayed widths in order to accommodate the Portlets, depending on the value of `canStretchColumnWidths` and `canShrinkColumnWidths`.

      However, the instrinsic width of the columns will remain the same, so that the columns will resume their former widths when no longer necessary to stretch or shrink to accommodate the widths of Portlets. To allow drag-resizing of the intrinsic width of columns, see `canResizeColumns`.

      The net effect is that (by default) PortalLayouts behave like layouts when Portlet sizes do not cause overflow, but behave more like stacks when overflow occurs.
      If this method is called after the component has been drawn/initialized: Set whether the height and width of `Portlets` should be drag-resizable, and update any drawn Portlets to reflect this.

      Parameters:
        `canResizePortlets` - Whether drag-resizing the height and width of portlets is allowed. Default value is false
      Returns:
        `PortalLayout` instance, for chaining setter calls

    - #### getCanResizePortlets

          public java.lang.Boolean getCanResizePortlets()

      Should the height and width of `Portlets` be drag-resizable?

      Note that changing the height of a Portlet will change the height of all the Portlets in the same row to match.

      If the height of Portlets causes a column to overflow, that column will scroll vertically (independent of other columns), depending on the `columnOverflow` setting.

      Changing the width of a Portlet will potentially cause columns to stretch and shrink their displayed widths in order to accommodate the Portlets, depending on the value of `canStretchColumnWidths` and `canShrinkColumnWidths`.

      However, the instrinsic width of the columns will remain the same, so that the columns will resume their former widths when no longer necessary to stretch or shrink to accommodate the widths of Portlets. To allow drag-resizing of the intrinsic width of columns, see `canResizeColumns`.

      The net effect is that (by default) PortalLayouts behave like layouts when Portlet sizes do not cause overflow, but behave more like stacks when overflow occurs.

      Returns:
        Current canResizePortlets value. Default value is false
      See Also:
        `getCanResizeColumns()`, `getCanStretchColumnWidths()`, `getCanShrinkColumnWidths()`, `getColumnOverflow()`, `Sizing overview and related methods`

    - #### setCanResizeRows

      Deprecated. Use `canResizePortlets` instead.
      Should vertical drag-resize of portlets within columns be allowed?
      If this method is called after the component has been drawn/initialized: Set whether vertical drag-resize of portlets within columns is allowed, and update any drawn columns to reflect this.
      Parameters:
        `canResizeRows` - Whether drag-resize of portlets within columns is allowed. Default value is false
      Returns:
        `PortalLayout` instance, for chaining setter calls

    - #### getCanResizeRows

      Deprecated. Use `canResizePortlets` instead.
      Should vertical drag-resize of portlets within columns be allowed?
      Returns:
        Current canResizeRows value. Default value is false

    - #### setCanShrinkColumnWidths

          public PortalLayout setCanShrinkColumnWidths(java.lang.Boolean canShrinkColumnWidths)

      Controls whether the PortalLayout will shrink column widths to avoid overflowing the PortalLayout horizontally. If the PortalLayout would otherwise overflow its width, it will check each column to see whether it is wider than necessary to accommodate its `Portlets`. If so, the column may shrink to avoid having to scroll the PortalLayout.
      If this method is called after the component has been drawn/initialized: Sets `canShrinkColumnWidths` and reflows to reflect the new setting.

      Note : This is an advanced setting

      Parameters:
        `canShrinkColumnWidths` - Whether columns can shrink to avoid overflowing the PortalLayout's width. Default value is true
      Returns:
        `PortalLayout` instance, for chaining setter calls
      See Also:
        `setCanStretchColumnWidths(java.lang.Boolean)`, `Sizing overview and related methods`

    - #### getCanShrinkColumnWidths

          public java.lang.Boolean getCanShrinkColumnWidths()

      Controls whether the PortalLayout will shrink column widths to avoid overflowing the PortalLayout horizontally. If the PortalLayout would otherwise overflow its width, it will check each column to see whether it is wider than necessary to accommodate its `Portlets`. If so, the column may shrink to avoid having to scroll the PortalLayout.
      Returns:
        Current canShrinkColumnWidths value. Default value is true
      See Also:
        `getCanStretchColumnWidths()`, `Sizing overview and related methods`

    - #### setCanStretchColumnWidths

          public PortalLayout setCanStretchColumnWidths(java.lang.Boolean canStretchColumnWidths)

      Controls whether the PortalLayout will stretch column widths, if needed to accommodate the width of `Portlets`. If set, columns will overflow their widths in order to accommodate the widths of their Portlets.

      With the default setting of `Overflow`: auto, the PortalLayout as a whole will scroll horizontally if needed. Depending on the setting of `canShrinkColumnWidths`, other columns may shrink to avoid overflow on the PortalLayout as a whole.

      If `canStretchColumnWidths` is turned off, then individual rows will scroll horizontally in order to accommodate Portlets that are wider than their column width allows.
      If this method is called after the component has been drawn/initialized: Sets `canStretchColumnWidths` and reflows to reflect the new setting.

      Note : This is an advanced setting

      Parameters:
        `canStretchColumnWidths` - Whether columns can stretch to accommodate `Portlet` widths. Default value is true
      Returns:
        `PortalLayout` instance, for chaining setter calls

          public java.lang.Boolean getCanStretchColumnWidths()

      Controls whether the PortalLayout will stretch column widths, if needed to accommodate the width of `Portlets`. If set, columns will overflow their widths in order to accommodate the widths of their Portlets.

      With the default setting of `Overflow`: auto, the PortalLayout as a whole will scroll horizontally if needed. Depending on the setting of `canShrinkColumnWidths`, other columns may shrink to avoid overflow on the PortalLayout as a whole.

      If `canStretchColumnWidths` is turned off, then individual rows will scroll horizontally in order to accommodate Portlets that are wider than their column width allows.

      Returns:
        Current canStretchColumnWidths value. Default value is true
      See Also:
        `getCanShrinkColumnWidths()`, `getCanResizePortlets()`, `Overflow`, `Sizing overview and related methods`

    - #### getColumn

          public Layout getColumn()

      Note : This API is non-functional (always returns null) and exists only to make you aware that this MultiAutoChild exists. See `Using AutoChildren` for details.

      Automatically generated vertical `Layout` used to create columns of `Portlets` via createAutoChild(). Since this is an `com.smartgwt.client.types.AutoChild`, you can use columnDefaults and columnProperties to customize the columns.

      The column includes a menu, if `showColumnMenus` is true, and a `rowLayout` which actually contains the `rows`. Therefore, if you want to style the columns as a whole, use columnDefaults or columnProperties, but if you want to style the layout that contains the rows, use rowLayoutDefaults or rowLayoutProperties.

      Returns:
        null
      See Also:
        `getRowLayout()`, `getRow()`

    - #### setColumnBorder

          public PortalLayout setColumnBorder(java.lang.String columnBorder)

      Parameters:
        `columnBorder` - New border to show around columns. Default value is "1px solid gray"
      Returns:
        `PortalLayout` instance, for chaining setter calls

    - #### getColumnBorder

          public java.lang.String getColumnBorder()

      Border to show around columns in this PortalLayout
      Returns:
        Current columnBorder value. Default value is "1px solid gray"

    - #### setColumnOverflow

          public PortalLayout setColumnOverflow(Overflow columnOverflow)

      Controls the `overflow` setting for each column. If set to "auto" (the default) then each column will scroll individually (if its `Portlets` overflow the column height). You can also use "hidden" to clip overflowing heights, or "visible" to show the overflow. The effect of "visible" will depend on the setting for `overflow` -- by default, the PortalLayout as a whole will scroll when necessary.
      If this method is called after the component has been drawn/initialized: Sets `columnOverflow` and updates existing columns to reflect the new setting.

      Note : This is an advanced setting

      Parameters:

          public Overflow getColumnOverflow()

      Controls the `overflow` setting for each column. If set to "auto" (the default) then each column will scroll individually (if its `Portlets` overflow the column height). You can also use "hidden" to clip overflowing heights, or "visible" to show the overflow. The effect of "visible" will depend on the setting for `overflow` -- by default, the PortalLayout as a whole will scroll when necessary.
      Returns:
        Current columnOverflow value. Default value is "auto"
      See Also:
        `Overflow`, `Canvas.getOverflow()`, `Sizing overview and related methods`

    - #### setColumnSpacing

          public PortalLayout setColumnSpacing(java.lang.Integer columnSpacing)

      The space between portal columns.

      To set spacing between portlets on a row in the same column, see `portletHSpacing`.
      If this method is called after the component has been drawn/initialized: Sets `columnSpacing` and reflows the layout to implement it.

      Parameters:

      `dropTypes` is set to `["PortalColumn"]` in order to allow the dragging of columns within the `PortalLayout`. To control `dropTypes` when `Portlets` or other components are dragged into the `PortalLayout`, use `portletDropTypes` instead.
      Overrides:
        `setDropTypes` in class `Canvas`
      Parameters:
        `dropTypes` - New dropTypes value. Default value is ["PortalColumn"]
      Returns:
        `PortalLayout` instance, for chaining setter calls
      Throws:
        `java.lang.IllegalStateException` - this property cannot be changed after the component has been created
      See Also:

                                     throws java.lang.IllegalStateException

      Initial number of columns to show in this PortalLayout. Note that after initialization columns should be added / removed via `addColumn()` and `removeColumn()`. numColumns is ignored if you initialize the `portlets` attribute, since the portlets attribute will imply how many columns to create.
      Parameters:
        `numColumns` - New numColumns value. Default value is 2
      Returns:
        `PortalLayout` instance, for chaining setter calls
      Throws:
        `java.lang.IllegalStateException` - this property cannot be changed after the component has been created
      See Also:
        `setPortlets(com.smartgwt.client.widgets.layout.Portlet...)`

    - #### getNumColumns

          public int getNumColumns()

      Initial number of columns to show in this PortalLayout. Note that after initialization columns should be added / removed via `addColumn()` and `removeColumn()`. numColumns is ignored if you initialize the `portlets` attribute, since the portlets attribute will imply how many columns to create.
      Returns:
        Returns the current number of columns displayed in this PortalLayout. Default value is 2
      See Also:

    - #### setOverflow

          public PortalLayout setOverflow(Overflow overflow)

      Controls how the PortalLayout reacts when column widths or `Portlet` widths overflow the width of the PortalLayout. By default, the PortalLayout scrolls when necessary. You can also use overflow: visible or overflow: hidden, with the usual results -- see `canResizePortlets` for a further explanation of column widths.

      Note that overflowing height is also affected by `columnOverflow`. By default, each column will scroll individually -- you can change columnOverflow to "auto" to scroll the whole PortalLayout instead.

      Overrides:
        `setOverflow` in class `Layout`
      Parameters:
        `overflow` - New overflow value. Default value is "auto"
      Returns:
        `PortalLayout` instance, for chaining setter calls
      See Also:
        `setCanResizePortlets(java.lang.Boolean)`, `setColumnOverflow(com.smartgwt.client.types.Overflow)`, `Canvas.setOverflow(com.smartgwt.client.types.Overflow)`, `Sizing overview and related methods`

    - #### getOverflow

          public Overflow getOverflow()

      Controls how the PortalLayout reacts when column widths or `Portlet` widths overflow the width of the PortalLayout. By default, the PortalLayout scrolls when necessary. You can also use overflow: visible or overflow: hidden, with the usual results -- see `canResizePortlets` for a further explanation of column widths.

      Note that overflowing height is also affected by `columnOverflow`. By default, each column will scroll individually -- you can change columnOverflow to "auto" to scroll the whole PortalLayout instead.

      Overrides:
        `getOverflow` in class `Layout`
      Returns:
        Current overflow value. Default value is "auto"

    - #### setPortletDropTypes

          public PortalLayout setPortletDropTypes(java.lang.String... portletDropTypes)

      The `dropTypes` to be applied when dropping `Portlets` on this `PortalLayout`, or when dropping other components to be auto-wrapped in a `Portlet`. If you set this, then you will need to set an equivalent `Canvas.dragType` on anything to be dragged into this `PortalLayout` (including `Portlets`).

      As a convenience, `Portlet.dragType` defaults to `"Portlet"`. Thus, if you want to allow `Portlets` to be dropped on this `PortalLayout`, but disable auto-wrapping of other components, you can set `portletDropTypes` to `["Portlet"]`.

      If you want to allow some `Portlets` to be dropped on this `PortalLayout` but not others, then set a custom `dragType` for the `Portlets`, and set `portletDropTypes` to match.

      If you want to have different `dropTypes` for `rows` and `rowLayouts`, you can specify `dropType` on the `row` or `rowLayout` autochildren instead.

      For more control over what can be dropped, you can also implement `willAcceptPortletDrop()`.
      If this method is called after the component has been drawn/initialized:

      Sets the `portletDropTypes` to be applied when dropping `Portlets` on this `PortalLayout`, or when dropping other components to be auto-wrapped in a `Portlet`.

      Parameters:
        `portletDropTypes` - dropTypes to apply when dropping `Portlets`. Default value is null
      Returns:
        `PortalLayout` instance, for chaining setter calls
      See Also:
        `Canvas.setDropTypes(java.lang.String...)`, `Drag and Drop`

    - #### getPortletDropTypes

          public java.lang.String[] getPortletDropTypes()

      The `dropTypes` to be applied when dropping `Portlets` on this `PortalLayout`, or when dropping other components to be auto-wrapped in a `Portlet`. If you set this, then you will need to set an equivalent `Canvas.dragType` on anything to be dragged into this `PortalLayout` (including `Portlets`).

      As a convenience, `Portlet.dragType` defaults to `"Portlet"`. Thus, if you want to allow `Portlets` to be dropped on this `PortalLayout`, but disable auto-wrapping of other components, you can set `portletDropTypes` to `["Portlet"]`.

      If you want to allow some `Portlets` to be dropped on this `PortalLayout` but not others, then set a custom `dragType` for the `Portlets`, and set `portletDropTypes` to match.

      If you want to have different `dropTypes` for `rows` and `rowLayouts`, you can specify `dropType` on the `row` or `rowLayout` autochildren instead.

      For more control over what can be dropped, you can also implement `willAcceptPortletDrop()`.

      Returns:
        Current portletDropTypes value. Default value is null
      See Also:
        `Canvas.getDropTypes()`, `Drag and Drop`

      If this method is called after the component has been drawn/initialized: Sets `portletHSpacing` and reflows the layout to implement it.

      Parameters:
        `portletHSpacing` - The amount of space to apply between portlets in a row. Default value is 3
      Returns:
        `PortalLayout` instance, for chaining setter calls
      See Also:
        `setPortletVSpacing(java.lang.Integer)`, `setColumnSpacing(java.lang.Integer)`, `Sizing overview and related methods`

    - #### getPortletHSpacing

          public java.lang.Integer getPortletHSpacing()

      The horizontal space between portlets placed into the same row.

      To set the spacing between portal columns, use `columnSpacing`.

      Returns:

    - #### setPortlets

          public PortalLayout setPortlets(Portlet... portlets)
                                   throws java.lang.IllegalStateException

      A convenience attribute which you can use to populate a PortalLayout with `Portlets` on initialization. After initialization, use `addPortlet()` or drag-and-drop to add Portlets, and `getPortlets()` or `getPortletArray()` to get Portlets.

      To create one column, you can provide an array of Portlets.

      To create multiple columns, provide an array of arrays (where the first level represents columns, and the second represents Portlets).

      To put multiple portlets in the same row, provide a third level to the array.

      Note that `numColumns` is ignored if you provide the portlets attribute, since the array will indicate how many columns to create. You can provide an empty second-level array to create a blank column, if needed.

      Parameters:
        `portlets` - New portlets value. Default value is null
      Returns:
        `PortalLayout` instance, for chaining setter calls
      Throws:
        `java.lang.IllegalStateException` - this property cannot be changed after the component has been created

    - #### getRow

          public Layout getRow()

      Note : This API is non-functional (always returns null) and exists only to make you aware that this MultiAutoChild exists. See `Using AutoChildren` for details.

      Automatically generated horizontal `Layout` used to create rows of `Portlets` via createAutoChild(). Since this is an `com.smartgwt.client.types.AutoChild`, you can use rowDefaults and rowProperties to customize the rows.

      Rows are created inside `rowLayouts`, which in turn are inside `columns`.

      Returns:
        null
      See Also:
        `getColumn()`, `getRowLayout()`

    - #### getRowLayout

          public Layout getRowLayout()

      Note : This API is non-functional (always returns null) and exists only to make you aware that this MultiAutoChild exists. See `Using AutoChildren` for details.

      Automatically generated vertical `Layout` used to create columns of `Portlets` via createAutoChild(). Since this is an `com.smartgwt.client.types.AutoChild`, you can use rowLayoutDefaults and rowLayoutProperties to customize the layout used to contain the rows.

      The rowLayout is the actual container for `rows` of `Portlets`. See `column` for the column as a whole, which may include a menu as well (depending on `showColumnMenus`). If you want to style the columns as a whole, use columnDefaults or columnProperties, but if you want to style the layout that actually contains the rows, use rowLayoutDefaults or rowLayoutProperties.

      Returns:
        null
      See Also:
        `getRowLayout()`, `getRow()`

    - #### setDefaultProperties

          public static void setDefaultProperties(PortalLayout portalLayoutProperties)

      Class level method to set the default properties of this class. If set, then all existing and subsequently created instances of this class will automatically have default properties corresponding to the properties set on the SmartGWT class instance passed to this function before its underlying SmartClient JS object was created. This is a powerful feature that eliminates the need for users to create a separate hierarchy of subclasses that only alter the default properties of this class. Can also be used for skinning / styling purposes.

      Note: This method is intended for setting default attributes only and will affect all instances of the underlying class (including those automatically generated in JavaScript). This method should not be used to apply standard EventHandlers or override methods for a class - use a custom subclass instead. Calling this method after instances have been created can result in undefined behavior, since it bypasses any setters and a class instance may have already examined a particular property and not be expecting any changes through this route.

      Parameters:
        `portalLayoutProperties` - properties that should be used as new defaults when instances of this class are created
      See Also:
        `SGWTProperties`

                                                         java.lang.Integer rowNum,
                                                         java.lang.Integer dropPosition)

      Returns true if the dragged `Portlet`, or other component, can be dropped onto this `PortalLayout` (other components would be auto-wrapped in a `Portlet`).

      The default implementation acts like `Canvas.willAcceptDrop()`, except applying `portletDropTypes` rather than `dropTypes`. You can subclass to apply other (or additional) criteria

      Note: This is an override point

      Parameters:
        `dragTarget` - The `Portlet`, or other component, being dragged
        `colNum` - indicates which column the portlet would be dropped on.
        `rowNum` - indicates the row number being dropped on.
        `dropPosition` - Drop position within an existing row. If the dropPosition is null, then that means that a new row will be created.
      Returns:
        true if the `Portlet` or other component being dragged can be dropped on this PortalLayout, false otherwise

    - #### getDropPortlet

          public Canvas getDropPortlet(Canvas dragTarget,
                                       java.lang.Integer colNum,

                                       java.lang.Integer dropPosition)

      This method is called when the user drops components into the rows or columns of this PortalLayout.

      Overriding this method allows you to modify drop behaviour when creating or reordering portlets via drag & drop. You can return the dragTarget for the standard behavior, or null to cancel the drop.

      Otherwise, return the component you want to be dropped (as for `Layout.getDropComponent`).

      Note: this is an override point.

      Parameters:
        `dragTarget` - the component being dragged
        `colNum` - indicates which column the portlet is being dropped on.
        `rowNum` - indicates the row number being dropped on.
        `dropPosition` - Drop position within an existing row. If the dropPosition is null, then that means that a new row will be created.
      Returns:
        drop-component or custom Portlet to embed in the portalLayout. Returning null will cancel the drop.
