Well, it works... but it's not resizable.
No, this was manually written.
Did you manually replace the include import javax.swing.* with all the
individual classes?
Anyway, if there's no solution (which would be disappointing; I'm not
think I'm asking for a lot of the layout managers) I have a backup
plan: have a resize function that manually divides the window between
the component the way I want to.
But it feels like a cop-out.
Not to complicate things but you could do this with JGoodies Forms
layout with no problem. I will build one and send to this forum.
