This document describes the API of the JGoodies Forms,
a framework that helps you lay out and implement
elegant Swing panels quickly and consistently.
Forms makes simple things easy and the hard stuff possible,
the good design easy and the bad difficult.
<p>
Forms 1.5 requires Java 6 or later.
Find Forms versions for older Java at
<a href="http://www.jgoodies.com/downloads/archive/">here</a>.
<h2>Getting Started</h2>
Forms ships with a <a href="../tutorial/introduction.html">tutorial</a>
and tutorial sources. The compiled tutorial is available as
<a href="http://www.jgoodies.com/freeware/formsdemo/">Forms Demo</a>.
And you can find more examples at
<a href="http://www.JGoodies.com/freeware/">www.JGoodies.com/freeware</a>.
As a next step you can study the
<a href="http://www.jgoodies.com/articles/">JGoodies articles and presentations</a>.
<h2>Open Issue</h2>
There's a weakness in the FormLayout that may require an API extension.
Components that span multiple columns or rows do not affect
the column width or row height resp.,
but can in some cases expand the container.<br>
I'm looking for a means to let the layout grid honor these components
that is both powerful and easy to understand.
See item #3.5 in the accompanying FAQ for details and a workaround.
