Padding and frame

Spacing around a view, and size constraints.

Padding

func (n *viewNode) Padding(all float32) *viewNode
func (n *viewNode) PaddingEdges(top, right, bottom, left float32) *viewNode
func (n *viewNode) PaddingH(v float32) *viewNode
func (n *viewNode) PaddingV(v float32) *viewNode
func (n *viewNode) PaddingTop(v float32) *viewNode
func (n *viewNode) PaddingBottom(v float32) *viewNode
func (n *viewNode) PaddingLeading(v float32) *viewNode
func (n *viewNode) PaddingTrailing(v float32) *viewNode

Padding(all) applies the same inset to all four edges. The named helpers set individual axes or edges; calling more than one merges them, so you can compose PaddingH(16).PaddingTop(8).

gova.VStack(
    gova.Text("Welcome"),
    gova.Text("Sign in to continue"),
).PaddingH(gova.SpaceLG).PaddingV(gova.SpaceMD)

Frame

func (n *viewNode) Frame(width, height float32) *viewNode
func (n *viewNode) MinWidth(w float32) *viewNode
func (n *viewNode) MinHeight(h float32) *viewNode
func (n *viewNode) Grow() *viewNode

Frame(width, height) sets a preferred minimum size; pass 0 to leave an axis unconstrained. MinWidth and MinHeight set just one axis.

Grow() flags a child to fill available space inside an HStack or VStack. See VStack and HStack for details. Only the first grow child in a stack participates.

gova.HStack(
    gova.TextField(input).Placeholder("...").MinHeight(36).Grow(),
    gova.Button("Send", onSend),
)
