Does anybody know how i might 'add in' the "FREE DESIGN" option into Sun Java Ent Edition8 that is currenty in NetBeans 5. This is in relation to LayoutManagers. The following is an explanation:
'The IDE's GUI Builder solves the core problem of Java GUI creation by streamlining the workflow of creating graphical interfaces, freeing developers from the complexities of Swing layout managers. It does this by extending the current NetBeans IDE GUI Builder to support a straightforward "Free Design" paradigm with simple layout rules that are easy to understand and use.'
I've added in the 'swing-layout-1.0' jar file but cant seem to get the FREE DESIGN working/option. In NetBeans it automatically is there for u when u add in a JFrame...
