I have been using java for years, now I need to go gui work. I am
having a Dickens of a time trying to grasp the swing layout managers,
specifically how to control placement on screen.
I am not looking for an IDE, but want to gain a better understanding
of the mechanics of how the layout managers "decide" to layout
components. Most references I have found only parrot what the API
javadocs , which are terse as best.
Does anyone have real world examples of laying out java swing UIs?
I am sure I will be flamed for this general, newbie question, assuming
somewhere on this group this question has been asked and answered.
Sorry in advance.
