Syntax
public Point location( int x, int y )
Parameters
x
the x coordinate of a point.
y
the y coordinate of a point.
Returns
an ordered pair of indexes that indicate which cell in the layout grid contains the point (xy).
Description
Determines which cell in the layout grid contains the point specified by (x, y). Each cell is identified by its column index (ranging from 0 to the number of columns minus 1) and its row index (ranging from 0 to the number of rows minus 1).

If the (x, y) point lies outside the grid, the following rules are used. The column index is returned as zero if x lies to the left of the layout, and as the number of columns if x lies to the right of the layout. The row index is returned as zero if y lies above the layout, and as the number of rows if y lies below the layout.
