public static void setColumnSpan (Node child, Integer value)

Sets the column span for the child when contained by a gridpane so that it will span that number of columns horizontally. This may be set to REMAINING, which will cause the span to extend across all the remaining columns.

If a gridpane child has no column span set, it will default to spanning one column. Setting the value to null will remove the constraint.

Parameters:
child    the child node of a gridpane
value    the column span of the child
