| Class | public class LayoutBehavior |
| Inheritance | LayoutBehavior  Behavior flash.events.EventDispatcher |
| Subclasses | SpiralLayoutBehavior, SunflowerLayoutBehavior, TreeLayoutBehavior |
The validate method should be overridden to do the actual updating of the ITweenableNodeRenderer properties.
If autoInvalidate is set to true, the layout will
be invalidated when the Constellation component dispatches the
ConstellationEvent.CHANGE event.
