That is a logical contradiction by the way..

How do you expect to 'layout' your controls
without a 'layout manager'? Planning on
using magic?

If there is a logic to calculating the
positions of the child components, that
logic is best encapsulated in a LayoutManager,
waht you are probably after is a custom
LayoutManager.

[ And if there is no logic, we're back to 'magic' ]
