    • makeGrid

      public static void makeGrid(Container parent, int cols, int rows, int initialX, int initialY, int xPad, int yPad)
      Aligns the first rows * cols components of parent in a grid. Each component is as big as the maximum preferred width and height of the components. The parent is made just big enough to fit them all.
      Parameters:
      cols - number of columns
      rows - number of rows
      initialX - x location to start the grid at
      initialY - y location to start the grid at
      xPad - x padding between cells
      yPad - y padding between cells
    • makeCompactGrid

      public static void makeCompactGrid(Container parent, int cols, int rows, int initialX, int initialY, int xPad, int yPad)
      Aligns the first rows * cols components of parent in a grid. Each component in a column is as wide as the maximum preferred width of the components in that column; height is similarly determined for each row. The parent is made just big enough to fit them all.
      Parameters:
      cols - number of columns
      rows - number of rows
      initialX - x location to start the grid at
      initialY - y location to start the grid at
      xPad - x padding between cells
      yPad - y padding between cells
