+<h3>Layout Cell Alignment Changed</h3>
+
+<p>Previously, the alignment of components within layout cells was set with
+<i>setComponentAlignment()</i> with constants for <b><s>OrderedLayout</s></b> (now
+<b>VerticalLayout</b> and <b>HorizontalLayout</b>) and <b>GridLayout</b> separately, such
+as <tt>OrderedLayout.ALIGNMENT_TOP_LEFT</tt>. Now the method takes constants defined in
+<b>Alignment</b>.</p>
+
+<p>For example, aligning a component "top left" is now:</p>
+
+<pre>mylayout.setComponentAlignment(mycomponent, Alignment.TOP_LEFT);</pre>
+
+<p>You can also give an <b>Alignment</b> object as a parameter and give horizontal and
+vertical alignment separately with bitmask parameters.</p>
