GridLayout - Java

63 New Member

Is there a way to have an uneven (LARGER) horizontal gap between the 2nd and 3rd columns, using gridLayout, and leave the gaps between 1st, 2nd and 3rd and 4th the same (SMALLER)?

container.setLayout(new GridLayout(5, 4, 5, 5));

My friend, you absolutely need to be using MigLayout. It is a free download available at MigLayout.com. It is far more flexible, and far easier to use than any of the layout managers provided by Java( for example: what took me 135 lines of code with GroupLayout, took 31 with Mig). It takes maybe 15 to 20 minutes to learn to create amazing GUIs. There are lots of examples on the website also. Trust me, try it.

P.S. You can cast a vote to have MigLayout included in Java7.

Or use the standard GridBagLayout; it's a bit of a burden to get used to but when you've got the hang of it it is very easy and convenient to use.

kind regards,
