Layout question

You mean like this ?

import java.awt.*;

import javax.swing.*;

public class panels

{

private Container c;

JPanel mainPanel, firstPanel, secondPanel, thirdPanel;

panels () throws Exception

{

firstPanel = new JPanel ();

secondPanel = new JPanel ();

thirdPanel = new JPanel ();

firstPanel.setBorder (BorderFactory.createCompoundBorder (

BorderFactory.createTitledBorder (""),

BorderFactory.createEmptyBorder (10, 5, 10, 5)));

secondPanel.setBorder (BorderFactory.createCompoundBorder (

BorderFactory.createTitledBorder (""),

BorderFactory.createEmptyBorder (20, 5, 20, 5)));

thirdPanel.setBorder (BorderFactory.createCompoundBorder (

BorderFactory.createTitledBorder (""),

BorderFactory.createEmptyBorder (20, 5, 20, 5)));

mainPanel = new JPanel ();

mainPanel.setLayout (new BoxLayout (mainPanel, BoxLayout.PAGE_AXIS));

//mainPanel.setBorder (BorderFactory.createEmptyBorder (5, 5, 5, 5));

mainPanel.add (firstPanel);

mainPanel.add (secondPanel);

mainPanel.add (thirdPanel);

JFrame jf = new JFrame ("three panels");

jf.setLocation (100, 100);

jf.setSize (260, 250);

jf.setBackground (Color.white);

jf.setResizable (false);

c = jf.getContentPane ();

c.add (mainPanel);

jf.setVisible (true);

}

public static void main (String[] args) throws Exception

{

new panels ();

}

}
