best layout to use

[mark smith]

hi

i would like to have in a jpanel:

jlabel - jtextfield
jlabel - jtextfield
jlabel - jtextarea

i don't want to allow to resize component in height

what layout do you suggest me?

thanks

because of the textArea (presumably in a scrollpane), nested borderlayout panels
in a BoxLayout (y-axis) panel might work.

but it might be a good exercise to try and get a GridBagLayout to work

You can also google for MigLayout.

Although I would use JGoodies' FormLayout, I think GroupLayout might work here just fine.
