Ever try to write a stand alone java application
and get various widgets to layout the way you'd like them within
Panels and Frames?
For example, I'd like be able to do this, where
check boxes and their labels are aligned in 2 columns:
[] This is the checkbox label
[] All checkboxes and labels are aligned
[] How can I do this
[] The layouts I've tried don't allow me to align widgets
so that I can create a layout just like this.
Any idea how to accomplish this kind of
layout in java's awt (windowing toolkit) ?
Another example is aligning text fields and labels like this:
My text field label: _____________________
Another label: _______________________
Yet another right justified label: ______________________
