Class GuiPlacement

java.lang.Object
net.ixdarklord.coolcatcanvas.api.client.gui.placement.GuiPlacement
public final class GuiPlacement extends Object
Finds where to put something of your own so it keeps out of the way of what else is on the screen: you give its size and where you'd like it, and it comes back there if that is clear, else at the nearest clear place found by sliding it in the directions you allow, past whatever is in its way, without leaving the bounds you set. 

 GuiPlacement.Position at = GuiPlacement.hud()
         .size(width, 16).at(x, 4).gap(2)
         .directions(GuiPlacement.Direction.DOWN)
         .find();
 GuiAreas.unrecorded(() -> drawMine(graphics, at.x(), at.y()));
By default it searches every direction within the whole screen and leaves out anything covering more than 40% of the screen (vignettes and other overlays aren't in anyone's way). Client and render thread only.

      public GuiPlacement.Position find()
      The place found: where it goes, and whether it had to move from where it was asked to go.
