This simple layout manager "flows" components into the window. The components can be aligned, and space between them specified by arguments hgap and vgap: |
setLayout(new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.LEFT, 5, 2)); |
setLayout(new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.CENTER)); |
setLayout(new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.RIGHT)); |
The FlowLayout Manager's strategy includes making each component its default "preferred size". |
