📄Description

g = uigridlayout creates a grid layout manager that positions its children in a configurable grid. g = uigridlayout(parent, [r c]) creates an r-by-c grid. RowHeight and ColumnWidth accept fixed pixel sizes, weighted sizes ('1x', '2x', ...), and 'fit'. Children are placed via their Layout.Row / Layout.Column options (scalar or [start end] span); components added without explicit placement fill the grid left to right, top to bottom. Other properties: RowSpacing, ColumnSpacing, Padding, BackgroundColor, Scrollable.
