JGoodies Forms & Looks

JFormDesigner supports and uses software provided by JGoodies Karsten Lentzsch.

The JGoodies Forms framework support is very extensive. Not only the layout manager FormLayout is supported, also some important helper classes are supported: Borders, ComponentFactory and FormSpecs (was FormFactory).

JGoodies Looks look and feels are built-in so that you can preview your forms using those popular look and feels.

JGoodies Forms ComponentFactory

The JGoodies Forms ComponentFactory (com.jgoodies.forms.factories) defines three factory methods, which create components. You find these components in the palette category JGoodies.
