without using absolute postioning, I am trying to place two buttons on the bottom of my JPanel (control panel) that is set on the right side.



I have a panel of radio buttons inside of the control panel.

at the bottom of my control panel I want two buttons. When I add the button panel to the control panel

 (using p.add(buttonPanel, BorderLayout.SOUTH); // P is ControlPanel)

use GridBagLayout http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/awt/GridBagLayout.html

It lets you put things in a grid, so you can place the items more intuitively.
