Remarks

Layout items are positioned within a table layout according to their OptionsTableLayoutItem.RowIndex and ColumnIndex properties. The OptionsTableLayoutItem.RowSpan and OptionsTableLayoutItem.ColumnSpan settings define the number of columns and rows occupied by an item.

The following image demonstrates the table layout that consists of five items arranged in three columns and three rows.

Note

If you specify the same target table cells for two or more layout items, these items will overlap.

You cannot set the ColumnIndex property to a value that is less than 0 or exceeds the number of columns within the table layout.
