GUI Question

176 100+
Hello guys. I have a GUI question. How do you format your page with buttons and things so that, for example, you would have something looking like this:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1.  
  2.                                                             button1
  3.                        button2
  4.                                                                                                 button3
  5.  
How would you do this?

Are you talking about Frames?

If yes, you can set the container's layout into null, then use setBounds/setLocation method for that.....

I'm really loath to give up on the LayoutManager, and so far I've never given up and set layout to null.

One option is to have a GridLayout with blank labels for the empty cells:

B__
__B
_B_

If you want bigger gaps, use a GridBagLayout or SpringLayout.

ps Box.createHorizontalGlue() would be fine too.

I also want to be able to place the buttons on different lines.

Sure, do as BDLH suggested and put them in a GridLayout; for the 'empty' cells
you can use empty labels as BDLH suggested or Glue as I suggested.

kind regards,
