title: Relative positioning and absolute coordinates?
body: <p>I am in the process of completing a course work but I need some help understanding this:</p>
  
  <p>"Note: Your application should keep the relative positioning of buttons and checkboxes
  when the frame of the application is resized based on the layout managers and the tech-
  niques covered in the module. I.e. you should not choose absolute coordinates when
  placing JComponents on the screen but relative positioning, i.e. component X is to the
  right of component Y and to the left of component Z and these relative locations should
  be maintained if the user resizes the frame of the application."</p>
  
  <p>Does this mean im not to use <code>BoxLayout.X/Y_AXIS</code>? Absolute coordinates?</p>
  
  <p>To my understanding I have to use several panels? If so, my code contains a login and when I login how will I change the colour of the frame? </p>
