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. Like a LayoutOrigin, it controls the components origin
    via a relative part plus offset. However, in contrast to LayoutOrigin
    (in which the top-left corner is specified by fraction+offset, here any
    reference point within the component is positioned.
    The reference point itself is specified as fraction of the components size.

    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 to the ST/X team.

examples

    using a LayoutOrigin, to control the top-left origins position of
    a component (i.e. origin at:0.5@0.5):

	|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


    using an AlignmentOrigin, to control the centers position of
    a component (i.e. center of component at:0.5@0.5):

	|top button|

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

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

	top open


    using an AlignmentOrigin, to control the bottom-right position of
    a component (i.e. bottom-right of component at:0.5@0.5):

	|top button|

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

	button := Button label:'component'.
