Detailed Description

template<fixed_string Name = "">
class hi::v1::overlay_widget< Name >

A GUI widget which may exist anywhere on a window overlaid above any other widget.

The overlay widget allows a content widget to be shown on top of other widgets in the window. It may be used for pop-up widgets, dialog boxes and sheets.

The size of the overlay widget is based on the widget::minimum_size(), widget::preferred_size() and widget::maximum_size(). Unlike other container widgets the clipping rectangle is made tightly around the container widget so that no drawing will happen outside of the overlay. The overlay itself will draw outside the clipping rectangle, for drawing a border and potentially a shadow.

As an overlay widget still confined to a window, like other widgets, when setting its layout parameters, it is recommended to use widget::make_overlay_rectangle() to make a rectangle that will fit inside the window.

It is recommended that the content of an overlay widget is a scroll widget so that when the overlay widget is drawn smaller than the requested rectangle the content will behave correctly.
