    public final class OverlayLayout

extends java.lang.Object
implements java.awt.LayoutManager

Constructor Summary
`OverlayLayout()` DefaultConstructor.
`OverlayLayout(boolean ignoreInvisible)` Creates a new instance.

Method Summary
`void` | `addLayoutComponent(java.lang.String name, java.awt.Component comp)` If the layout manager uses a per-component string, adds the component `comp` to the layout, associating it with the string specified by `name`.
`void` | `layoutContainer(java.awt.Container parent)` Lays out the specified container.
`java.awt.Dimension` | `minimumLayoutSize(java.awt.Container parent)` Calculates the minimum size dimensions for the specified container, given the components it contains.
`java.awt.Dimension` | `preferredLayoutSize(java.awt.Container parent)` Calculates the preferred size dimensions for the specified container, given the components it contains.
`void` | `removeLayoutComponent(java.awt.Component comp)` Removes the specified component from the layout.
