TControlChildSizing.TopBottomSpacing property
Minimum distance between the top or bottom edge of a Control and the top or bottom edge for a child control.
Declaration
property TopBottomSpacing: Integer read FTopBottomSpacing write SetTopBottomSpacing default 0;Description
TopBottomSpacing is an
Integer property with the number
of pixels reserved as spacing between child controls and the top and bottom
edges of the Control. For example: When TopBottomSpacing is set to 5 for a
Control, the Top property for a child control starts at 5.
The default value for the property is 0 (zero) and indicates that no additional space is reserved on the corresponding edges of the Control. Changing the value for the property causes the Change method to be called to resize/realign child controls. The OnChange event handler is also signalled (when assigned).
TopBottomSpacing also affects control alignment when using Anchors for positioning child controls on a parent.
Use VerticalSpacing to reserve space between vertically adjacent child controls in a column on the tabular Layout.
Use LeftRightSpacing to reserved space on the left and right edges of the Control.
