Method Detail

makeCompactGrid

public static void makeCompactGrid(Container parent,
                                   int rows,
                                   int columns,
                                   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:
parent - The container to layout.
rows - number of rows
columns - number of columns
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
