<constantlayout>

constantlayout extends LzLayout, and therefore it is responsible for arranging all of the subviews for the view that it is attached to. The attributes of a view that constantlayout effects are the x and y values, and as its name implies constantlayout sets all of the subviews to the same value.

<canvas height="100">
  <view bgcolor="red" >
    <view width="80" height="80" bgcolor="teal"/>       
    <view width="60" height="60" bgcolor="silver"/> 
    <view width="40" height="40" bgcolor="green"/>           
    <constantlayout axis="x" value="10"/>
  </view >
</canvas>

In this example the teal, silver and green views are aligned on the horizontal (x) axis; the layout element's value attribute (10) causes the subviews to be shifted ten pixels to the right.

<canvas height="100" >
  <view bgcolor="red" >
    <view width="80" height="80" bgcolor="teal"/>       
    <view width="60" height="60" bgcolor="silver"/> 
    <view width="40" height="40" bgcolor="green"/>           
    <constantlayout axis="y" value="10"/>
  </view >
</canvas>

In this example the teal, silver and green views are aligned on the vertical (x) axis; the layout element's value attribute (10) causes the subviews to be shifted ten pixels down.
