Positioning JLabels

807601Feb 18 2008 — edited Feb 19 2008

Hey,

I'm trying to learn Swing applications and I've run into a bit of trouble positioning my "Hello World" label on the screen. I've created a JFrame that is 640x480 in size and I want to move my label to a specific x,y within the frame. I've tried using setLocation and setBounds with no luck. The label stays stuck vertically centered on the left side of the screen. How do I move this label around?

Mike
