Background Example

Constructors​

(alignment:​children)​

alignment: Alignment = Alignment.center​

The alignment of the background component. If multiple components are placed in the background this alignment only affects the overall alignment of all children together as a group.

children: Template()​

The children to place in the background.

The children property doesn't have to be listed explicitly. Instead you can simply have a trailing block, like in the example above.

Layout Behavior​

Mirrors the size of the component it is applied to and suggests this size to the background children.
