You use FlowLayout when you want fixed rows and columns of components, and when you want the components to fill available space.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

FlowLayout does not provide fixed rows and columns of components. It simply arranges components left to right, wrapping to the next row when it reaches the end of the container. It also does not fill available space, instead it centers components vertically and horizontally within their allotted space.
