The setBounds method moves a button to any position that you specify with a Rectangle object as a parameter to the method

You can easily end up chasing your tail here.
I wouldn't recommend creating the interface before getting the program logic laid out correctly first.

All the help you will need with the coding is here then you will be able to move buttons, swap them, hide them et all. Good luck.
