Extending Builders: Layout Builders

Hi,
I would like to add following methods to our layout builders. Similar
convenience methods are present in their respective layout classes:
*GridPaneBuilder*
addColumn(int columnIndex, Node... children)
addRow(int rowIndex, Node... children)
add(Node child, int columnIndex, int rowIndex)
add(Node child, int columnIndex, int rowIndex, int colspan, int rowspan)
*RegionBuilder*
maxSize(double width, double height)
minSize(double width, double height)
prefSize(double width, double height)
These will be inherited by all layout builders.
A also propose to add following convenience methods which don't have
direct counterpart in layout classes (the constraints can be specified
only by static methods there)
Adding these would enable us to add child with constraint to layout
without having to hold a reference to it. e.g
Hbox h = HBoxBuilder.create().add(CircleBuilder.create...build(),
margin).build();
instead of
Circle circle = CircleBuilder.create...build();
Hbox h = HBoxBuilder.create().children(circle).build();
Hbox.setMargin (circle, margin);
The proposed methods are:
*AnchorPaneBuilder*
add(Node child, Double topAnchor, Double rightAnchor, Double
bottomAnchor, Double leftAnchor)
*BorderPaneBuilder*
add(Node child, Pos alignment)
add(Node child, Insets margin)
add(Node child, Pos alignment, Insets margin)
*FlowPaneBuilder*
add(Node child, Insets margin)
*GridPaneBuilder*
add(Node child, int columnIndex, int rowIndex, int columnspan, int
rowspan, HPos halignment, VPos valignment)
add(Node child, int columnIndex, int rowIndex, int columnspan, int
rowspan, HPos halignment, VPos valignment, Priority hgrow, Priority vgrow)
add(Node child, int columnIndex, int rowIndex, int columnspan, int
rowspan, HPos halignment, VPos valignment, Priority hgrow, Priority
vgrow, Insets margin)
*HBoxBuilder*
add(Node child, Priority hgrow)
add(Node child, Insets margin)
add(Node child, Priority hgrow, Insets margin)
*StackPaneBuilder*
add(Node child, Pos alignment)
add(Node child, Insets margin)
add(Node child, Pos alignment, Insets margin)
*TilePaneBuilder*
add(Node child, Pos alignment)
add(Node child, Insets margin)
add(Node child, Pos alignment, Insets margin)
*VBoxBuilder*
add(Node child, Priority vgrow)
add(Node child, Insets margin)
add(Node child, Priority vgrow, Insets margin)
Thanks,
Eva
