http://www.tkk7.com/leon/OverlayLayout是用于排列重疊組件的布局管理器。它的用途是以一些對(duì)齊的點(diǎn)為基準(zhǔn)將一些組件層疊的放置在布局容器中。
組件的橫軸和縱軸的對(duì)齊點(diǎn)介于0.0和1.0之間。橫軸（X軸）上0.0代表組件的左側(cè)面，1.0代表組件的右側(cè)面；縱軸（Y軸）上0.0和1.0分別代表組件的頂部和底部。

最后提醒，使用OverlayLayout布局管理器關(guān)鍵要記住X，Y軸對(duì)應(yīng)組件位置，和容器沒(méi)有關(guān)系。只要明白這一點(diǎn)，使用還是很簡(jiǎn)單方便的，我用OverlayLayout布局管理器clone了一個(gè)PhotoShop的工具面板。
