    Near, Far, and Target Layout Items

    Near and far item positions depend on the parent layout group‘s LayoutDirection property value:

    ldVertical
    Default. The group arranges items from top to bottom. The near item is above the splitter, and the far item is below it.
    ldHorizontal
    The group arranges items from left to right. Near and far items are to the left and right of a splitter, respectively.

    The target item is the near or far layout item associated with the splitter, depending on AlignVert and AlignHorz property values as well as the parent group direction.

    For example, the near item is the splitter target if the parent group is horizontally arranged, and the AlignHorz property is set to ahLeft:
