How to create a GridLayout with rows and columns in Java?

While creating a GridLayout, you need to set the rows and columns as parenthesis. A GridLayout is used to create a layout the specified number of rows and columns.

Let’s say we have a GridLayout, with 1 row and 4 columns −

GridLayout layout = new GridLayout(1,4);

Example

package my; import java.awt.Color; import java.awt.Dimension; import java.awt.FlowLayout; import java.awt.Font; import java.awt.GridLayout; import javax.swing.JButton; import javax.swing.JFrame; import javax.swing.JLabel; import javax.swing.JPanel; import javax.swing.JTextArea; import javax.swing.WindowConstants; public class SwingDemo {    public static void main(String[] args) {       JFrame frame = new JFrame("Sections");       JPanel panel = new JPanel();       panel.setBackground(Color.orange);       GridLayout layout = new GridLayout(1,4);       layout.setHgap(40);       panel.setLayout(layout);       panel.add(new JButton("Overview"));       panel.add(new JButton("Samples"));       panel.add(new JButton("Tutorials"));       panel.add(new JButton("Support"));       frame.add(panel);       frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(WindowConstants.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);       frame.setSize(500, 300);       frame.setVisible(true);    } }
