I had the same problem with netbeans. And, like you, wanted to place it anyware as I came from a delphi and VS background. Found the best way to do this was by using absolute positioning. In netbeans you can change the design layout to absolute by right clicking and choosing layout. I think that answers your question. I am new to java so hope it's correct

I'm sorry but ther isn't absolut position on custom layout.

Thanks!
