Java Forum / GUI / December 2006Creating custom LayoutManager in NetBeans?
Hello, does anyone have experience on creating and using a custom LayoutManager in NetBeans (5.5)? What needs to be written in addition to the actual LayoutManager class in order to have NetBeans accept it? Thanks,  SignatureWolf a.k.a.

I thought it just needed to be imported, unless you are referring to using it in the 'form dezigner' or whatever the NetBeaniacs call it. But.. are you sure you need a custom layout at all? Had you considered/tried *nested* (core ) layouts instead of a custom layout? Andrew T.

That exactly is the pain point.. and it looks like, now that I have also spent some time reading the NB mailing list archives, that this is not necessarily trivial, and that the NB interface for importing custom layout managers does change from time to time... >But.. are you sure you need a custom layout at all? >Had you considered/tried *nested* (core ) layouts >instead of a custom layout? My target is a layout in the form of a circle (or an arc), and at least so far I couldn't get an idea on how to use the regular layout managers for that. SignatureWolf a.k.a.
