=head1 NAME

C<Tickit::WidgetRole::Alignable> - implement widgets with adjustable alignment

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Mixing this parametric role into a L<Tickit::Widget> subclass adds behaviour
to implement alignment of content within a possibly-larger space.

=cut

=head1 METHODS

The following methods are provided parametrically on the caller package when
the module is imported by

 use Tickit::WidgetRole::Alignable name => NAME, style => STYLE, reshape => RESHAPE

The parameters are

=over 4

=item name => STRING

Optional. The name to use for C<NAME> in the following generated methods.
Defaults to C<'align'> if not provided.

=item dir => "h" or "v"

Optional. The direction, horizontal or vertical, that the alignment
represents. Used to parse symbolic names into fractions. Defaults to C<'h'> if
not provided.

=item reshape => BOOL

Optional. If true, the widget will be reshaped after the value has been set by
calling the C<reshape> method. If false or absent then it will just be redrawn
by calling C<redraw>.

=head2 $align = $widget->NAME

Return the current alignment value

=cut

=head2 $widget->set_NAME( $value )

Set the new alignment value

Gives a value in the range from C<0.0> to C<1.0> to align the content display
within the window.

For vertical direction alignments, the symbolic values C<top>, C<middle> and
C<bottom> can be supplied instead of C<0.0>, C<0.5> and C<1.0> respectively.

For horizontal direction alignments, the symbolic values C<left>, C<centre>
and C<right> can be supplied instead of C<0.0>, C<0.5> and C<1.0>
respectively.

=head2 ( $before, $alloc, $after ) = $widget->_NAME_allocation( $value, $total )

Returns a list of three integers created by aligning the C<$value> to the
given alignment position within the C<$total>. See also C<align> in
L<Tickit::Utils>.
