如何为JPanel的文本/组件之间留空格？

Question

    JRadioButton choice1 = new JRadioButton ("Daytime (6:00 A.M. through 5:59 P.M.)"+"$0.07");
    choice1.setActionCommand("0.07");

    JRadioButton choice2 = new JRadioButton ("Evening (6:00 P.M. through 11:59 P.M.)"+"$0.12");
    choice2.setActionCommand("0.12");

    JRadioButton choice3 = new JRadioButton ("Off-Peak (12:00 A.M. through 5:59 A.M.)"+"$0.05");
    choice3.setActionCommand("0.05");

    JButton calculate = new JButton ("Calculate");

    ButtonGroup group = new ButtonGroup();
    group.add(choice1);
    group.add(choice2);
    group.add(choice3);

    JPanel panel = new JPanel ();
    panel.setLayout(new BoxLayout(panel, BoxLayout.Y_AXIS));

    panel.add(choice1);
    panel.add(choice2);
    panel.add(choice3);
    panel.add(calculate);
    JLabel result = new JLabel("Total Cost is: ");
    panel.add(result);
    window.add(panel);

    window.setVisible(true);

As you see, I created a JPanel that has a group of RadioButtons that gives 3 choices to pick. What I'm creating is a phone call payment list. I want to have spaces between my time intervals and the fees corresponding to them. For example, having word "Daytime(6:00 AM through 5:59 PM)" appear on the very left, and value "$0.07" on the very right of the window. How would I do that? Thanks very much!

Answer 1

I do not think it is possible by keeping it the text from the JRadioButton but if you make an appart JLabel for the fee, it should be ok.

JLabel#setHorizontalAlignment(int alignment) takes a JLabel constant as argument and you can align your text to the JLabel.LEFT , JLabel.RIGHT or JLabel.CENTER .

Here is the output you could expect, it is up to you to find the perfect Layout for your program of course
