* For example:
*
*
* shell.setLayoutData(new BorderLayout());
* Button button = new Button(shell, SWT.PUSH);
* button.setLayoutData(BorderData.NORTH);
*
*
* Note that you can add as many controls to the same direction as you like, but
* the last one added for the direction will be the one displayed.
