anchor

   used
       Returns the amount of space used an arrayref in the form of "[ $width, $height ]".

       Layout::Manager::Flow is a layout manager that anchors components in one of the four cardinal directions.

       When you instantiate a Flow manager, you may supply it with an anchor value which may be one of north,
       south, east or west.  The example below shows how the default anchor value of north works when you add
       two components.

                        north
         +--------------------------------+
         |           component 1          |
         +--------------------------------+
         |           component 2          |
         +--------------------------------+
         |                                |
         |                                |
         |                                |
         +--------------------------------+

       Components are placed in the order they are added.  If two items are added with a 'north' anchor then the
       first item will be rendered above the second.  Components will be expanded to take up all space
       perpendicular to their anchor.  North and south will expand widths while east and west will expand
       heights.

       Flow is similar to Java's FlowLayout <http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/layout/flow.html>.
       It does not, however, center components.  This features may be added in the future if they are needed.

do_layout
       Size and position the components in this layout.
