Here's one minor twist that may help.
Continue to use NullLayout but use an actual linear measurement
for placement rather than pixels -- which of course vary by screen resolution.
I.e. do your placement in inches or points.
You can get the conversion factor from Toolkit:
/**
* convert inches to pixels
**/
public static int inches(double inches)
{
return (int) (inches * Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenResolution());
}
/**
* convert points to pixels
**/
public static int points(int points)
{
return inches(points / 72.0);
}
Regardless of the layout manager chosen, doing critical positioning
by pixels is always problematic.
