GridPane lays out its children within a flexible grid of rows and columns

GridPane lays out its children within a flexible grid of rows and columns. If a border and/or padding is set, then its content will be layed out within those insets. A child may be placed anywhere within the grid and may span multiple rows/columns. Children may freely overlap within rows/columns and their stacking order will be defined by the order of the gridpane's children list (0th node in back, last node in front).

GridPane may be styled with backgrounds and borders using CSS
