BorderLayout
manager places labels (or other components) into the five
regions
BorderLayout.NORTH, BorderLayout.SOUTH, BorderLayout.EAST,
BorderLayout.WEST
, and
BorderLayout.CENTER
. These five regions are arranged as
shown in Display 17.8. The outside box represents the
JFrame
(or other container to
which you will add things). None of the lines in the diagram will be visible unless you
do something to make them visible. We drew them in to show you where each region
is located.
