FlowLayout issue

I have added 3 components(1 label, 1 textfield and 1 button) in a panel using a FlowLayout manager.

All these 3 components are now left alligned.

I want to keep the label and the textfield left alligned and I want to move the button to the right side of my panel.

How can I move the button to the right side? (keeping the FlowLayout manager)

I don't think FlowLayout is meant to do that. Try looking for another [url= http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/awt/LayoutManager.html]LayoutManager[/url] that suits your needs better. You might have to put the two left-justified buttons in their own container.

A Box is good for this because you can add "Glue" after the first two componentswhich will push the last to the right.

Insert a rigidarea after you add the textfield. Or else you can insert a blank label after the textfield. Both these would work.

As Captain and pbrock suggested that you shift to some other layout, even i would suggest you to shift to a more flexible layout manager like GridBagLayout where you can diveide the container into grids and assign your components to specific grids.
