Trail: Creating a GUI with JFC/Swing
Lesson: Laying Out Components Within a Container

Run Custom Layout Manager Demo

Since you can't run the applet, here's a picture of it:

A custom layout manager that lays out components diagonally.


Note: Because the preceding applet uses the Swing 1.1 API, it requires Java Plug-in 1.1.2 or Java Plug-in 1.2. It won't work with Java Plug-in 1.1.1 or uncustomized 1.1 browsers. For more information about running applets in the tutorial, refer to About Our Examples. That page includes a section about Downloading Java Plug-in.
