It will arrange buttons left to right until no more buttons fit on the same line. The alignment argument can be FlowLayout.LEADING, FlowLayout.CENTER, or FlowLayout.TRAILING. FlowLayout is part of the standard Java distribution. Four additional layouts are provided in the sun.awt package: HorizBagLayout, VerticalBagLayout, OrientableFlowLayout, and VariableGridLayout. Flow layouts are typically used to arrange buttons in a panel. The flow layout manager arranges components in a row from left to right, starting a new row if no more components fit into a row.
