Class FormPanel

java.lang.Object
  com.partnersoft.gui.forms.FormPanel

public class FormPanel
extends java.lang.Object

Sets up a panel with a form layout. It has the standard 2-column form layout, a column of labels and a column of controls, with the option of adding rows that span both columns.

Call addRow(JComponent, JComponent) to add a label and control pair, and addRow(JComponent) to add a row that spans both columns. The rows are displayed in the order they are added. Call getPanel() to get the root panel.

This implementation uses GroupLayout, which has a couple of nice properties: the components are vertically aligned along their baseline, which makes the left-to-right flow look better, and they are spaced according to the look-and-feel defaults, which makes the form look more like a native form.
