  --- | ---
  BlockLevelEventProducer | Event producer interface for block-level layout managers.
  BlockLevelLayoutManager | The interface for LayoutManagers which generate block areas
  BreakOpportunity | Defines methods to evaluate break opportunities at a particular location in the tree of layout managers.
