### Coordinates ### ### Coordinates ###
The positioning of a widget in the terminal works via a coordinate system. It consists of x characters in the horizontal and y characters in the vertical. The upper left corner has the coordinates (1, 1). With the commands getDesktopWidth() and getDesktopHeight(), the width and height of the terminal get retrieved. These two values result in the position of the lower right terminal corner. The position of a widget is retrievable with getX(), getY(), and getPos() or is definable with setX(), setY(), and setPos(). The data type for each coordinate is an int. All positions represent an FPoint() object. The positioning of the widget is always relative to its parent widget. The top parent widget in a chain of children contains the terminal desktop. There the absolute terminal positions are still identical to the relative positions (getPos == get_Term_Pos). In the case of a child widget, the positioning is corresponding to the upper left corner of the parent widget plus a possible padding space (can be determined with getLeftPadding() and getTopPadding()). If you want to ignore padding spaces, you must force this with the ignorePadding() method. The positioning of a widget in the terminal works via a coordinate
system. It consists of _x_ characters in the horizontal and _y_
characters in the vertical. The upper left corner has the coordinates
(1, 1). With the commands `getDesktopWidth()` and `getDesktopHeight()`,
the width and height of the terminal get retrieved. These two values
result in the position of the lower right terminal corner. The position
of a widget is retrievable with `getX()`, `getY()`, and `getPos()` or
is definable with `setX()`, `setY()`, and `setPos()`. The data type for
each coordinate is an `int`. All positions represent an `FPoint`
object. The positioning of the widget is always relative to its parent
widget. The top parent widget in a chain of children contains the
terminal desktop. There the absolute terminal positions are still
identical to the relative positions (`getPos()` = `getTermPos()`). In
the case of a child widget, the positioning is corresponding to the
upper left corner of the parent widget plus a possible padding space
(can be determined with `getLeftPadding()` and `getTopPadding()`).
If you want to ignore padding spaces, you must force this with the
`ignorePadding()` method.

If you set the value of adjust to false when calling setX(), setY(), or setPos(), this will prevent the explicit call of adjustSize() afterward. This is important to avoid adjustSize() loops or to block the adjustSize() call from being repeated unnecessarily often. If you set the value of `adjust` to `false` when calling `setX()`,

### Lengths ### ### Lengths ###
The dimensions of a widget can be retrieved and defined separately in width and height. The methods getWidth() and getHeight() respectively setWidth() and setHeight() are used for this. Because a length cannot be negative, all lengths are of type std::size_t. The dimensions of a widget can be retrieved and defined separately in

Some widgets have a border, a title bar, or both, which can reduce the maximum size of the child widget. width and height. The methods `getWidth()` and `getHeight()`

Corresponding padding space ensures the correct distance here. The padding space can be retrieved separately for all four sides with the widget methods getTopPadding(), getLeftPadding(), getBottomPadding(), and getRightPadding().

If the value of adjust is set to false for setWidth(), setHeight(), setTopPadding(), setLeftPadding(), setBottomPadding() or setRightPadding(), then adjustSize() is not explicitly called afterwards. This is important to prevent adjustSize() loops or to avoid that adjustSize() is called unnecessarily often. If the value of `adjust` is set to `false` for `setWidth()`,

### Areas ### ### Areas ###
The terminal area in which a widget appears determines its geometry. The geometry of a widget is composed of its position and its size. A widget position is always of object type FPoint() and a widget size of type FSize(). The widget geometry can get as FRect object via the widget method getGeometry() and set with the method setGeometry(). The getTermGeometry() method gets the total values of the terminal geometry. The terminal area in which a widget appears determines its geometry.
If you are only interested in the size of a widget, you can also use the method getSize(). To set the widget size, you can use the method setSize(). The geometry of a widget is composed of its position and its size.
The position of a shadow is outside the widget. The shadow size itself as FSize() object is retrievable via the getShadow() method. You can set the widget shadow size with the setShadowSize() method. If you want to get the geometry values of a widget, including its shadow, you can use the method getGeometryWithShadow() from the FWidget class. If you want to have the entire geometry with shadow for the absolute geometry values as a FRect object, you can call the method getTermGeometryWithShadow(). A widget position is always of object type `FPoint` and a widget
size of type `FSize`. The widget geometry can get as `FRect` object
via the widget method `getGeometry()` and set with the method
`setGeometry()`. The `getTermGeometry()` method gets the total values
of the terminal geometry.
If you are only interested in the size of a widget, you can also use
the method `getSize()`. To set the widget size, you can use the method
`setSize()`.
The position of a shadow is outside the widget. The shadow size itself
as `FSize` object is retrievable via the `getShadow()` method. You

If you explicitly set the value of adjust to false when using the setSize(), setGeometry() or setShadowSize() mutators, the adjustSize() method is no longer called automatically. This can be used to prevent recursive adjustSize() calls or to avoid unnecessary adjustSize() calls. If you explicitly set the value of `adjust` to `false` when
