documentation

    This class is provided to make porting of existing ST-80 applications
    easier. Instances can be used to control the geometry of a subview, within
    its superview. It provides the same functionality as a relative origin
    combined with insets.
    A layoutOrigin controls the origin of a subcomponent, given a fractional
    component and an offset component.

    Notice: 
        this class was implemented using protocol information
        from alpha testers - it may not be complete or compatible to
        the corresponding ST-80 class. 
        If you encounter any incompatibilities, please forward a note 
        describing the incompatibility verbal (i.e. no code) to the ST/X team.

examples

    Although the examples below use a button as component,
    they work of course with any type of subview ....

    using a LayoutOrigin, to arrange for
    the TOPLEFT of a component be positions
    at the center (i.e. buttons origin at:0.5 @ 0.5):
                                                                        [exBegin]
        |top button|

        top := StandardSystemView new.
        top extent:300@300.

        button := Button label:'component'.
        top add:button in:(LayoutOrigin new
                                leftFraction:0.5;
                                topFraction:0.5).

        top open
                                                                        [exEnd]


    like above, but adds an additional offset:
    (i.e. center of button at:0.5 @ 0.5 OFFSET by 10 @ 20):
                                                                        [exBegin]
        |top button|

        top := StandardSystemView new.
        top extent:300@300.

        button := Button label:'component'.
        top add:button in:(LayoutOrigin new
                                leftFraction:0.5;
                                topFraction:0.5;
                                leftOffset:10;
                                topOffset:20).
