    Parameters:
    
    block - the block.
    
    key - the key (null permitted).
  - arrange
```
Size2D arrange(BlockContainer container,
               java.awt.Graphics2D g2,
               RectangleConstraint constraint)
```
    Arranges the blocks within the specified container, subject to the given constraint.
    
    Parameters:
    
    container - the container (null not permitted).
    
    g2 - the graphics device.
    
    constraint - the constraint.
    
    Returns:
    
    The container size after the arrangement.
