Package com.lowagie.text

Class Row

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    WithHorizontalAlignment, Element
    public class Row
extends Object
implements Element, WithHorizontalAlignment
    A Row is part of a Table and contains some Cells.

    All Rows are constructed by a Table-object. You don't have to construct any Row yourself. In fact you can't construct a Row outside the package.

    Since a Cell can span several rows and/or columns a row can contain reserved space without any content.
