Thread: GUI problem

Hello,

I am working on a GUI project and have been having issues. I have managed to properly position the button, the text field, and the text area, but am unable to position the scroll bar, check box, or label. I cannot see the label, the checkbox is fixed in an area that makes it obscured by the text area, and the scroll bar covers the entire frame. I tried to remedy the scroll bar issue by using the border layout and putting it west, but it still doesn't have the proper size of the image given. I have tried to use the setbounds method to position and size the scroll bar, and the set location method to position both the label and the checkbox, but both instances, nothing happens, and I don't understand why. Any guidance would be extremely helpful! I've attached the code so far, if you want a reference.

import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class FrameExample 
{
TextField tf;
TextArea ta;
Checkbox cb;
Scrollbar sb;
public static void main(String args[])
{
FrameExample fe = new FrameExample();
}
public FrameExample()
{
Frame f= new Frame("Frame Example");
Button button = new Button("Button");
Label lbl= new Label("Label");
tf = new TextField("TextField", 100);
ta = new TextArea("TextArea");
cb = new Checkbox("Checkbox");
sb = new Scrollbar();
 
button.setBounds(20, 40, 50, 50);
lbl.setLocation(130, 200);
tf.setBounds(100, 40, 120, 50);
ta.setBounds(30, 110, 150, 100);
cb.setLocation(250, 200);
sb.setBounds(5, 110, 25, 100);
 
f.add(button);
f.add(lbl);
f.add(tf);
f.add(ta);
f.add(cb);
f.add(sb);
 
button.addMouseListener(new MyMouseListener());
f.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter(){
public void windowClosing(WindowEvent we)
{
System.exit(0);
}
});
f.setSize(300,300);
f.setVisible(true);
}
