Layout of Components
 BorderLayout  GridLayout
– north, south, west, east – tabular form (rows &
& center columns)
 FlowLayout  GridBagLayout
– left to right & top – tabular form(variable
down row heights and
 CardLayout column widths)
– stack of panels
Use Layout Managers
setLayout(new BorderLayout());
setLayout(new CardLayout(());
setLayout(new FlowLayout());
setLayout(new GridLayout(rows,columns,xgap,ygap));
 Default layout managers
– Windows (Frames & Dialogs)
• BorderLayout
– Panels (Applets)
• FlowLayout
How to Use BorderLayout?
import java.awt.*;
public class TestBorderLayout {
public static void main(String[] args){
Frame f = new Frame("TestBorderLayout");
f.setSize(200,200);

f.add("North", new Button("North"));


f.add("South", new Button("South"));
f.add("East", new Button("East"));
f.add("West", new Button("West"));
f.add("Center", new Button("Center"));

f.setVisible(true);
}
How to Use FlowLayout?
import java.awt.*;
public class TestFlowLayout {
public static void main(String[] args){
Frame f = new Frame("TestFlowLayout");
f.setSize(200,200);
f.setLayout(new FlowLayout());

f.add(new Button("Button 1"));


f.add(new Button("Button 2"));
f.add(new Button("Button 3"));
f.add(new Button("Button 4"));
f.add(new Button("Button 5"));

f.setVisible(true);
How to Use CardLayout?
import java.awt.*;

public class TestCardLayout {


public static void main(String[] args){
Frame f = new Frame("TestCard Layout");
f.setSize(200,200);
f.setLayout(new CardLayout());
f.add("GraphicsPanel",new GraphicsPanel());
f.add("LabelPanel",new LabelPanel());
f.add("ButtonPanel",new ButtonPanel());

f.setVisible(true);
}
}
How to Use GridLayout?
import java.awt.*;
public class TestGridLayout {
public static void main(String[] args){
Frame f = new Frame("TestGridLayout");
f.setSize(200,200);
f.setLayout(new GridLayout(2,3));
f.add(new Button("Button 1"));
f.add(new Button("Button 2"));
f.add(new Button("Button 3"));
f.add(new Button("Button 4"));
f.add(new Button("Button 5"));
