Adding panel in center of container

Question

I have a JPanel which is a BorderLayout and I have set a new panel in the top and container (JDesktopPane) in center and another panel in bottom. Now I want to set panel (card layout) dynamically in center of container as I am showing hierarchy below

           top --> panel
panel(BorderLayout)center --> container(JDesktopPane) --> panel(CardLayout)
            bottom --> panel

Here card layout contain different panel as card. problem is that I'm unable to show each card in center of container.

how to show them center of container?

Put them in a panel with a GridBagLayout, add them as the only component with no constraint, and they will be centered. See this answer for an example.

- GroupLayout provides a hassle free way arranging the components as you want them too.

- GroupLayout was developed by NetBeans Group in 2005.

- You can download the Windows Builder Pro for free from Google, and use it.
