Hi
I'm trying to create a GUI using GridBagLayout.
I have two separate JPanels where i need to place items in the same

Is it possible to use at GridBagLayout with a fixed / predifined no.

Maybe. GBL is very dependent on the preferred sizes of the components.
So if they were all the same size or you make them all the same size,
then yes probably. Also with GBL you can set the weights and fill to
allow the components to expand to the available space in the layout.

I wrote a GBL simulator if you want to try setting up a layout,

If you try it, I would appreciate any feedback.

I tried it - really awesome.

The only suggestion is to create function to export created layout in
Java source format. It will really help developers to visually crate
layout and then use it.

Nice job!

That's a good idea, I'll think about that.
