    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---

- - ### Method Detail

    - #### notifySpace

          void notifySpace(RelSide side,
                           MinOptMax effectiveLength)

      Notifies the layout manager about the effective length of its space.
      Parameters:
        `side` - the side to which the space applies
        `effectiveLength` - the effective length after space-resolution (null means zero length)

    - #### notifyBorder

          void notifyBorder(RelSide side,
                            MinOptMax effectiveLength)

      Notifies the layout manager about the effective length/width of its border.
      Parameters:
        `side` - the side to which the border applies
        `effectiveLength` - the effective length in the current break situation (null means zero length)

    - #### notifyPadding

          void notifyPadding(RelSide side,
                             MinOptMax effectiveLength)

      Notifies the layout manager about the effective length/width of its padding.
      Parameters:
