We would like to know how to align components with GridBagLayout.
import java.awt.BorderLayout; import java.awt.GridBagConstraints; import java.awt.GridBagLayout; import java.awt.Insets; //from w w w .j av a2 s . c o m import javax.swing.JFrame; import javax.swing.JPanel; import javax.swing.JTextField; public class Main { public Main() { JFrame frame = new JFrame(); frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); frame.add(new MyPanel()); frame.pack(); frame.setMinimumSize(frame.getPreferredSize()); frame.setVisible(true); } public static void main(String[] args) { new Main(); } } class MyPanel extends JPanel { public MyPanel() { JTextField labelA = new JTextField("Your A component"); JTextField labelB = new JTextField("Your B component"); JTextField labelC = new JTextField("Your C component"); JTextField labelD = new JTextField("Top Right D"); JPanel north = new JPanel(new GridBagLayout()); GridBagConstraints gbc = new GridBagConstraints(); gbc.anchor = GridBagConstraints.FIRST_LINE_END; gbc.weightx = 1; gbc.insets = new Insets(10, 10, 10, 10); north.add(labelD, gbc); JPanel south = new JPanel(new GridBagLayout()); gbc.anchor = GridBagConstraints.CENTER; gbc.gridy = 0; south.add(labelA, gbc); gbc.gridy = 1; south.add(labelB, gbc); gbc.gridy = 2; south.add(labelC, gbc); setLayout(new BorderLayout()); add(north, BorderLayout.NORTH); add(south, BorderLayout.CENTER); } }
