av_sp = Available Space left to the right margin

Ok guys i built this group layout, which is a custom cell renderer for my JList.
I have somehow to compute the available space that is left from label1/label3 to the right margin.

GroupLayout cell = new GroupLayout(this);
            setLayout(cell);
            cell.setAutoCreateGaps(true);
            cell.setAutoCreateContainerGaps(true);
            int pPathWidth=(ProjectList.LISTWIDTH-16-20)/2; //that's something i tried, not a solution...
            
            SequentialGroup s1 = cell.createSequentialGroup();
                cell.setHorizontalGroup(s1);
                    s1.addGap(5);
                    s1.addComponent(pTypeIcon, 16, 16, 16);
                    ParallelGroup p1 = cell.createParallelGroup(GroupLayout.Alignment.LEADING,false);
                    s1.addGap(5);
                    s1.addGroup(p1);
                        p1.addComponent(pName,0,172,172);
                        SequentialGroup s2 = cell.createSequentialGroup();
                        p1.addGroup(s2);
                        //Status icons
                            if (statusLabels != null)
                                for (int i = 0; i < statusLabels.length; i++)
                                        s2.addComponent(statusLabels[i]);
                            else
                                        s2.addComponent(correct);    
                            s2.addComponent(jSeparator, GroupLayout.PREFERRED_SIZE,
                                        GroupLayout.DEFAULT_SIZE, GroupLayout.PREFERRED_SIZE);
                        //Branch
                            s2.addComponent(branchName);        
                        //Push/Pull    
                            if (ppLabel != null){
                                s2.addComponent(jSeparator2, GroupLayout.PREFERRED_SIZE,
                                                GroupLayout.DEFAULT_SIZE, GroupLayout.PREFERRED_SIZE);
                                for (int i = 0; i < ppLabel.length; i++)
                                        s2.addComponent(ppLabel[i]);
                            }
                    s1.addPreferredGap(LayoutStyle.ComponentPlacement.RELATED,5, 172); //not good, i was just trying to find a solution
                    int prefWidth = pPath.getPreferredSize().width > 172 ? 230 : pPath.getPreferredSize().width; //not good, i was just trying to find a solution
                    s1.addComponent(pPath,0,prefWidth,250);//not good, i was just trying to find a solution
                    s1.addGap(5);                     

            SequentialGroup s11 = cell.createSequentialGroup();
                cell.setVerticalGroup(s11);
                s11.addGap(5);
                ParallelGroup p11 = cell.createParallelGroup(GroupLayout.Alignment.CENTER);
                s11.addGroup(p11);
                    p11.addComponent(pTypeIcon);
                    p11.addComponent(pName);
                    p11.addComponent(pPath);

                ParallelGroup p22 = cell.createParallelGroup();
                s11.addGroup(p22);

                //Status icons
                    if (statusLabels != null)
                        for (int i = 0; i < statusLabels.length; i++) 
                p22.addComponent(statusLabels[i]);
                    else
                p22.addComponent(correct);

                p22.addComponent(jSeparator);

                //Branch
                p22.addComponent(branchName);

                //Pulls/pushes
                    if (ppLabel != null) {
                p22.addComponent(jSeparator2);
                        for (int i = 0; i < ppLabel.length; i++) 
                p22.addComponent(ppLabel[i]);}
                s11.addGap(5);

um, since I do not have the full code and I cannot run this, what is your current issue or question? Are there errors? What glitches have you found? Where does the gap become apparent?

[doru.chiulan]

i will post a picture later
The problem is that i cannot get the gap as i want(if the label width is less than the space left to the right margin, that gap should push the label to the right, if the label is too long , my scrollable pane should not extend and "cut" last part of the label)

You will see in the picture what's wrong. Thank you for reply and sorry for my bad question :D.
