Placement may depend on the size of the container or window.
If you want to define the position relative to the size, you can
use LayoutKit::center to set the button's lower-left position
relative to the window (0,0 is lower left; 1,1 is upper-right).
Alternatively, you can use LayoutKit::[hv]glue and boxes to define
the spacing for the position of your button.
