Suggestion regarding which layout to use while implementing GUI in java

Question

I have been working on my assignment and I need a help regarding which layout to choose while designing the label combo box and buttons using java GUI. I want things to be done in a particular manner where in one horizontal line I need labels followed by combo box followed by button in second horizontal line I want the same things with one extra button and so on for third and fourth horizontal line. Actually my concern is that I am very much new to GUI and I need a suggestion which layout to choose and how to implement it

thanks in advance

Answer 1

I would go with GroupLayout (use NetBeans, it has a very good GUI builder, that makes UI creation easy). If you want to try more sophisticated solution, you may check JGoodies or MigLayout.
