Swing Layout for different screen resolution

843807Jul 23 2010 — edited Jul 26 2010
Hi All,

I am developing an application which will always run in a FULL SCREEN mode.
I intend to make it working on all screen sizes (resoultions) and on different OS and devices.
Since I am new to Swing, could anyone of you suggest a good layout manager to manage the components?
I am using NetBeans 6.8 (which uses a GroupLayout) for designing the GUI but when I change the screen resolution, the arrangement is all messed up.
Also, I am not able to design my application's GUI using NetBeans GUI builder as there is noway I can get an idea of how things will look like in the EXTENDED_BOTH state.

It will be very helpful if anyone could suggest..

Thanks!
