~~Title: Efl.Canvas.Object.hint_weight~~
====== Efl.Canvas.Object.hint_weight ======

===== Description =====

%%Hints for an object's weight.%%

%%This is a hint on how a container object should resize a given child within its area. Containers may adhere to the simpler logic of just expanding the child object's dimensions to fit its own (see the %%[[:develop:api:efl:gfx:hint_expand|Efl.Gfx.Hint_Expand]]%% helper weight macro) or the complete one of taking each child's weight hint as real weights to how much of its size to allocate for them in each axis. A container is supposed to, after normalizing the weights of its children (with weight  hints), distribut the space it has to layout them by those factors -- most weighted children get larger in this process than the least ones.%%

%%Accepted values are zero or positive values. Some containers might use this hint as a boolean, but some others might consider it as a proportion, see documentation of each container.%%

<note>
%%Default weight hint values are 0.0, for both axis.%%

===== Values =====

  * **x** - %%Non-negative double value to use as horizontal weight hint.%%
  * **y** - %%Non-negative double value to use as vertical weight hint.%%
