I need help with layouts.
I need a simple layout of some kind, which allows me to put objects at x,y place.
Or a layout that allows me to put a gap of space between objects, that needs to be horizontolly and vertically, I tried GridConstraints and layout, I tried to to use a Separator, but nothings seems to work ok.
I hope you guys can help me.

PS: it needs to work on a JPanel
Have you seen this tutorial? It includes a visual guide to layouts.
Lesson: Laying Out Components Within a Container (The Java™ Tutorials > Creating a GUI With JFC/Swing)
And trying to 'put objects at x,y place' isn't usually a good idea.

Thank you verry much for you're reply :)
It helped me alot, and I wanted to use apsolute position, because my JFrame will not be resizable :)

Your frame might not be resizable, but what about if a user of the program has set large default fonts, possibly because of a vision defect? Using layout managers properly will automatically adjust for such personal settings.

That is verry true, but it is just that i really dont know how to work with the layout managers :/
and i plan to use the program, that i am coding now, for only a select few people, but when i book progress in java coding, I will look into how to properly work with layout managers, its just that i need to have open spaces to make it all look better
