-Positioner items are container items that manage the positions and sizes of
+Positioner items are container items that manage the positions of
items in a declarative user interface. Positioners behave in a similar way to
the \l{Widgets and Layouts}{layout managers} used with standard Qt widgets,
except that they are also containers in their own right.
Positioners make it easier to work with many items when they need
to be arranged in a regular layout.
+\l{Qt Quick Layouts} can also be used to arrange Qt Quick items in a user interface.
+They manage both the positions and the sizes of items on a declarative user interface,
+and are well suited for resizable user interfaces.

\brief Property used to mirror layout behavior
The LayoutMirroring attached property is used to horizontally mirror \l {anchor-layout}{Item anchors},

+ \l{Item Positioners}{positioner} types (such as \l Row and \l Grid)
and views (such as \l GridView and horizontal \l ListView). Mirroring is a visual change: left
anchors become right anchors, and positioner types like \l Grid and \l Row reverse the
horizontal layout of child items.
This property holds whether the item's layout is mirrored horizontally. Setting this to true
horizontally reverses \l {anchor-layout}{anchor} settings such that left anchors become right,
- and right anchors become left. For \l{Item Layouts}{positioner} types
+ and right anchors become left. For \l{Item Positioners}{positioner} types
(such as \l Row and \l Grid) and view types (such as \l {GridView}{GridView} and \l {ListView}{ListView})
this also mirrors the horizontal layout direction of the item.
