      <para>The <see cref="T:System.Windows.Forms.FlowDirection" /> enumeration describes the flow direction of consecutive UI elements, typically controls, on a design surface or container such as a form. This enumeration is used by linear layout containers such as <see cref="T:System.Windows.Forms.FlowLayoutPanel" />, which stores this information internally in the <see cref="P:System.Windows.Forms.FlowLayoutPanel.FlowDirection" /> property.</para>
      <para>The <see cref="T:System.Windows.Forms.FlowDirection" /> determines where a new control is placed by default when it is added to a supporting container. The flow direction of the container, along with the <see cref="P:System.Windows.Forms.Control.Anchor" /> and <see cref="P:System.Windows.Forms.Control.Dock" /> properties of each contained control, determine the rearrangement of controls when their container is resized.</para>
      <para>The <see cref="T:System.Windows.Forms.FlowLayoutPanel" /> control provides a FlowBreak property to its child controls. Setting the value of the FlowBreak property to true causes the <see cref="T:System.Windows.Forms.FlowLayoutPanel" /> control to stop laying out controls in the current flow direction and wrap to the next row or column.</para>
