Questions tagged [flowlayout]

Flow layout places components left to right and then top to bottom, allocating just enough place for each component.

Flow layout is similar to table layout but it allocates just enough width for each component. It has no "columns" because the width of the cells is most often different for every row. The difference between flow and table layout is less obvious when flow layout only has a single row (a quite common case in GUI).
