public final class ButtonStackBuilder
A non-visual builder that assists you in building consistent button stacks
using the FormLayout.
This builder sets a hint for narrow margin for the gridded buttons. This can reduce the button stack's width if some buttons have long texts. For example, a stack with 'OK', 'Cancel', 'Configure…' will likely exceed the minimum button width. The narrow margins help getting narrow stacks. Note that some look&feels do not support the narrow margin feature, and conversely, others have only narrow margins. The JGoodies look&feels honor the setting, the Mac Aqua l&f uses narrow margins all the time.
Example:
The following example builds a button stack with Close, Up and
Down, where Up and Down are related, and Close is not related
to the other buttons, which makes a wide gap for the unrelated and
a smaller gap for the related buttons.
private JPanel createCloseUpDownButtonStack(
JButton close, JButton up, JButton down) {
ButtonStackBuilder builder = new ButtonStackBuilder();
builder.addGridded(close);
builder.addUnrelatedGap();
builder.addGridded(up);
builder.addRelatedGap();
builder.addGridded(down);
return builder.getPanel();
}
